Most big projects have massive cost overruns. The government used to do great things about 50-70 years ago. But now with rules and regulations imposed by democrats, they spend millions on multiple impact studies that take years.

    The evidence says we're better off putting our failth in Elon over the government. And it's much cheaper.
    Yep mister opposite

    Thanks for admitting The Trump Administration was a complete failure by your above post. The Republicans controlled all three branches during Trump's first 2 years and did what?

    Added 7.8 trillion dollars to the National debt Yep
    Yep who needs clean air and water
    Forget the FDA inspection of meat
    Who needs safety at work
    Or health inspections

    PS what's the min wage in Mississippi ? Yep 7.25 per hour

    BTW did you checkout the new Republican nightmare plan project 2025 ?

      Wind power generated more electricity than coal in the U.S. in March and April, a sign that the setbacks offshore wind faced last year have not halted the industry’s broader momentum.

      Though the U.S. Energy Information Administration predicts these standings will fluctuate, the energy generated by coal has steadily declined since 2008 while wind power has increased.

        Hotel companies continue to gear up for a surge in demand from workers wearing hardhats as more than $1 trillion in public and private infrastructure spending is set to fuel years of U.S. construction projects.

        An expected influx of traveling workers is reshaping the maps where hotel groups plan to open properties. To capitalize on this trend, some hotel groups have added extended-stay and budget brands. Driving the news:
        • Federal spending In August 2022, the U.S. set aside about $1 trillion over a decade to spend on fixing bridges, roads, and dams. So far, only 4% of infrastructure money has been spent, according to Wyndham executives.

          Another Biden unconstitutional act is struck down by federal appeals court. Biden is not a king and cannot bypass congress who has the power of the purse.


          Appeals court blocks Biden’s student loan repayment plan, in latest legal blow to administration


          The move will increase pressure on the Education Department to halt student loan payments while the legal fight plays out.


          An appeals court on Thursday temporarily blocked the Biden administration’s new student loan repayment plan, leaving millions of borrowers uncertain about the monthly payments they owe.

          The move will increase pressure on the Education Department to halt student loan payments while the legal fight plays out.


          Student debt relief has been a key plank of President Joe Biden’s education agenda and is seen as crucial to solidifying support among young voters in this year’s presidential contest.


          Key context: Much of the program, known as SAVE, took effect last year. But some provisions, such as lower monthly payments, were set to start in July.

          Federal district judges in Kansas and Missouri blocked key provisions of the plan in June. But a federal appeals court put that decision on hold in July and allowed the Biden administration to move ahead with its lower monthly payments.

          Thursday’s ruling, from the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, completely blocks the program for an unclear length of time.

          Back up: Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey filed an emergency motion last week asking a circuit court judge to block the Biden administration from “continuing to unlawfully forgive student loans.”

          Bailey alleged that the Education Department is evading the injunction by still implementing certain parts of the plan, such as allowing borrowers of a certain income level to have $0 payments, as well as a provision that forgives loans after 10 to 25 years of payments, depending on the borrower’s degree program and amount borrowed.

          However, some student loan experts believe Thursday’s ruling was far more sweeping than the states intended.

          “This seems to be further than what the states where asking for,” Mike Pierce, the executive director and co-founder of the Student Borrower Protection Center, said. “When you look at the rhetoric Republicans used, they are not calling for this kind of mass chaos, but they are playing with fire.”

          What’s next: The legal challenges will continue to work their way through the courts. Critics say the plan overreaches and unfairly burdens taxpayers. The states suing the Education Department — South Carolina, Alaska and Texas — are asking the Supreme Court to take up the Kansas case.



          The Education Department said in a statement that it is assessing the impact of the ruling and will be in touch directly with borrowers with any impacts that affect them.

          “Our Administration will continue to aggressively defend the SAVE Plan — which has been helping over 8 million borrowers access lower monthly payments, including 4.5 million borrowers who have had a zero dollar payment each month,” an Education Department spokesperson said. “And, we won’t stop fighting against Republican elected officials’ efforts to raise costs on millions of their own constituents’ student loan payments.”

          The department sent out an email to 40 millions borrowers last week assuring them the administration would continue to implement the student income-driven repayment program “to the fullest extent possible.”

          Sen. Bill Cassidy, the ranking member of the Senate HELP committee, applauded the courts decision, saying the Biden Administration’s program was an abuse of power.

          “He isn’t ‘forgiving’ debt. He is taking the debt from those who willingly took it out to go to college and transferring it onto taxpayers who decided not to go to college or already paid off their loans,” Cassidy said of the president in a statement.

          Pierce said he believes the administration should pause student loan payments while the case is sorted out in the courts, noting that the Education Department has made similar moves before.

          “It seems to me like there aren’t very many options left at the table,” he said. “In response to a much more limited court order, they were prepared to do that with up to 3 million people two weeks ago.”​

            By the way, Biden isn't forgiving student loans. He's transferring those payments from the students that took out the loans to taxpayers who didn't go to college or paid off their student loans.

              Hmmmmm. Exactly like trumpy transferred the tax burden from the ultra wealthy onto the much less privileged. Except with the student loan forgiveness the little guy wins for a change. No wonder the corrupt, biased Supreme Court hates it so much.

                Trump vs. Kamala


                This has been the strangest election in probably the history of the country. But I will not be lectured by democrats who covered up Biden's dementia. At the top of the list is Kamala Harris who had to know. She needs to answer for that. She's been out there saying that Joe is on top of his game. All lies.

                With that being said, democrats were all set to vote for a man with dementia and I have no doubt they would vote for a Mannequin over Trump. In my opinion she not close to being qualified to be POTUS.

                We'll see what happens. She's gonna be put through the ringer like never before. And the Trump Train is rolling.

                  Also, what kind of party are the democrats? If Joe Biden isn't fit for re-election, he damn sure ain't fit to run the country. If he drops out, he should step down.

                    Man, I'm watching Trump's acceptance speech and it's emotional. Probably not a dry eye in the house. He's talking about the shooting at his rally. About the peson killed and the 2 others that were badly injured. I've never heard Trump sound like this.

                      It's so strange because a first world country is fighting over two very old men for the leadership of that country. How is it that a country with a population of over 300 million people can't find two suitable candidates? Very strange indeed.

                        What you're seeing is your freedoms slowly slipping away as trumpy becomes the dictator you so want him to be.
                        Why do you and the other magatrons ignore the fact that trumpy has actually stated out loud that he would become a dictator? Do you hate freedom that much?

                            This is high praise from a Trump hater.

                            Van Jones: Haven’t Been at Convention that Felt Like ’24 RNC Since ’08 DNC for Obama

                            During CNN’s RNC coverage on Thursday, CNN Senior Political Commentator and former Obama Adviser Van Jones stated that he hasn’t been at a convention that felt like the 2024 RNC since the 2008 Democratic National Convention for President Barack Obama.

                            After CNN Senior Political Commentator and former Bush official Scott Jennings expressed his enthusiasm for the convention and joked around, including a few references to Hulk Hogan, Jones remarked, “I want to say something, this spirit that this guy has, you guys think it’s because he’s drunk. He’s not. This whole thing is like this. … Hey, guys, the last time I was in a convention that felt like this was Obama 2008. There’s just — there’s something happening where –.”



                            CNN host Kasie Hunt then cut in to say that Jones “wrote a headline” with his remarks.
