You call it a fishing expedition, but the warrant stated what they were looking for, and from all reports, including Trump's own lawyers, they found what they were looking for.
While having access to plenty of other things they didn't need. Hence the fishing part of this.
This is a very good point.........

If you charge at home, there will be an additional service charge on your bill which will be a pulled-out-of-the-[BLEEP] estimate of how much electricity you are using for recharging, which will be ripe for manipulation and overcharging. If charging at a rapid charging station, then it'll be levied on the Point of Service payment.

Right. Some places also might start charging higher registration costs to electric cars and plug in hybrids.
But none of that is going to kick in until the vehicles are much more widely adopted. We are still in the "subsidize it" phase and we will reach the "tax it" phase in maybe 10 or 15 years. Time will tell.

Drifter.. This is kinda up your alley, wanna give us your opinion on this?
Not baiting or piling on, genuinely curious how you see this..
Edit: any opinion you give will be met with gratitude. Just want the opinion who has participated in such activities. Just trying to understand through civil conversation.

I mean, you know and I know drag shows aren't evil, I can say that without ever being to one.. It's just kink.. I just happen to think it's kink, for adults.. I don't understand the reasoning behind wanting to introduce children into the fold of that kink..

To tell the truth, neither can I..... Adults, I have no problem with whatever "Kinks" they may have but..... introducing kids to this lifestyle, I think it's a form of child abuse because it could confuse them beyond their capacity to understand such things. As I said in the past, I enjoy doing drag and going out to some clubs where that kind of thing is accepted, but I always have taken care to NOT involve kids in this activity

Opinion | A shadow war in space is heating up fast - The Washington Post
While Washington officials and experts warn of the risks of an arms race in space, the United States’ adversaries are constantly conducting operations against U.S. satellites that skirt the line between intelligence operations and acts of war. The pace of conflict is intensifying, according to a top Space Force general, who told me that China could overtake the United States to become the number one power in space by the end of the decade.
“The threats are really growing and expanding every single day. And it’s really an evolution of activity that’s been happening for a long time,” Gen. David Thompson, the Space Force’s first vice chief of space operations, told me in an interview on the sidelines of the recent Halifax International Security Forum. “We’re really at a point now where there’s a whole host of ways that our space systems can be threatened.”
Right now, Space Force is dealing with what Thompson calls “reversible attacks” on U.S. government satellites (meaning attacks that don’t permanently damage the satellites) “every single day.” Both China and Russia are regularly attacking U.S. satellites with non-kinetic means, including lasers, radio frequency jammers and cyber attacks, he said.
Thompson repeatedly declined to comment on whether China or Russia has attacked a U.S. military satellite in a way that did permanent or significant damage, telling me that would be classified if it had happened. The Chinese military is quickly deploying ground-based systems for doing battle in space, such as lasers that can damage nosy U.S. intelligence community satellites, which could be considered an act of war.
“The Chinese are actually well ahead [of Russia],” Thompson said. “They're fielding operational systems at an incredible rate.”
Both the Russians and the Chinese are working on satellites that can attack other satellites, he said. For some time now there have been reports that China was developing a satellite that could claw another satellite or grab one with a robotic arm or a grappling hook. The Chinese government has several reasons to want to disable U.S. satellites, which have been useful in revealing concentration camps built to intern Uyghur Muslims and new Chinese nuclear missile silo fields...
Conventional thinking about how to deter an enemy from attacking on the ground, by sea or in the air doesn’t really apply to space. New doctrines and norms for space need to be established, mostly by diplomats. That work will take years. Meanwhile, the arms race in space is heating up, and the United States risks losing it if it doesn’t recognize this reality.

Satellites make it trivially easy for anybody to figure out the positions of American aircraft carriers. It may be in our interest if the first stage of a new war was knocking out satellites. Provided, of course, we have layers of contingency plans to operate without GPS and comms as we've come to know them.
But yes, branching out the space Force was the right idea, and the space Force needs tools to not only protect our satellites but also effectively retaliate against enemy satellites.
