*may contain propaganda, slave labor, and virus labs
This is an event so momentous and spectacular it took all of the world's creepiest corporate and government supervillains working together to bring it to you
Congrats to Ming Zhou and Li Chaoxiang of China for advancing to the medal round in Pairs Journalist Arresting
Always a good idea to be a gracious guest, especially when your host runs a slave labor dungeon in his basement
Please note: network ad buys now often have audience size guarantees. If the audience is smaller than guarantee, the network ends having to make-good with free spots on other programs.
Be a real shame if NBC had to run a year-long fire sale on their ad inventory due to this

They even got this wrong, the mystery wasn't whether it was a 1940-41 Ford Deluxe woody, it was whether it was a *1941-42* Ford Deluxe woody. It obviously isn't a 1940, and I conclusively determined it was a 1941 per the fender top marker lights. Again, smdh
Just when you though you couldn't hate the media enough
You are looking at the rear of the car, the stainless steel trim ring still on the rear spare. the wooden top and wooden exterior of rear gate rusted away. You can see the stainless deluxe bumper guards are jutting up at bottom of the photo. You can see the front bench seat and steering wheel, partially covered by torn remains of rubberized top.
Ford woodies were widely used at US naval bases. There absolutely no reason why a German Kubelwagen would be on a US aircraft carrier.
"Let's bring down inflation with 150% tariffs and 0% interest rates" is perhaps the most galaxy brained economic theory I have ever attempted to ponder
High interest rates are good because they encourage people to save and invest
Low interest rates are bad because they encourage people to rack up debt and buy stuff with money they don't have
I live in Austin TX which, as you might have heard, has a few California transplants. I know a lot of them, and without exception they are painfully aware of why they they left CA and do not want those mistakes repeated here
"Those damn California libruls moved into Austin and turned it blue" is probably the most clueless reaction I get on this site. Austin has always been lefty, and if anything Cali transplants have made it less so.
1. Austin has always been lefty because it's always been a magnet for native Texan weirdos fleeing their conservative home towns.
2. There are some lefty transplants from CA and other places. But in metro Austin they're typically tech workers, many of Asian descent with families, who move to the suburbs for lower single family housing prices and non-insane school curricula.
First, yeah, Boomer Bait. The Nova SS in race #1 and 1940 Ford pickup in #2 are both highly modified. Stock form, the Nova would've had ~14 second 1/4 time rather than 10. And stock 1940 Ford wouldn't even had broken 20 seconds.
But the modification is *the entire point*.
Secondly, while the Nova is probably street legal the Ford probably isn't. But there is a benchmark for street legal old American muscle, the Hot Rod Magazine Drag Tour. Participating cars have to be registered, licensed, and must drive on the road between 6 or so drag strips where their ETs are recorded. They are allowed to swap DOT tires for slicks for their runs. There are dozens and dozens of these cars with electronically timed ETs under 9 seconds (A stock Tesla S Plaid is somewhere in 9.3-9.4). Some under 6 seconds.
