Called it 2 weeks ago when Philippines says it will cooperate if ICC seeks Duterte’s custody over drug killings:

While this is good it is politically motivated as the new prime minister, who is just as authoritarian as duterte, is trying to get rid of his political rival. Also not a good sign for stability as dutertes threatened and his daughter is currently vice president, so an assassination/coup attempt may be coming.

Let’s see if I can get another, Netanyahu will be arrested by the ICC

It already does exclude tesla. The first tax credit from the Obama years went away after a company was producing a certain volume of cars, it was meant to spur new companies, not bolster established ones. Tesla got it for a while but by now they make too many cars to count.

Not sure if it was actually kept in but the tax credits in the IRA were also dependent on cars being union made, and Elon hates unions so tesla was excluded. This is probably part of the reason Elon hates Biden and why he turned to trump.

So you don’t have to really target tesla, you can just target large established manufacturers or non union ones.

Take note, this is what class war looks like, and if we don’t fight back we’ll keep losing ground with shit like this

As part of the legislative package, lawmakers doubled the standard deduction for seniors and nearly tripled the standard deduction for individuals, effectively eliminating income tax on the lowest income households.

No war in western europe*

And that is mostly due to mutually assured destruction and decolonization and the destruction of European imperial ambitions. If these grand entangling alliances prevented war then WWI wouldn’t have happened. If nukes weren’t a thing then nato would probably be a factor contributing towards another world war rather then preventing it.
