Nancy Pelosi’s husband sold Visa shares 2 months before a DOJ lawsuit — some say the trade shouldn't have been allowed
  • My comment was meaning to say that the only people who can put laws in place to stop politicians from being able to participate in trading stocks are politicians.

    Clearly the laws in place do not stop them currently.

  • Nancy Pelosi’s husband sold Visa shares 2 months before a DOJ lawsuit — some say the trade shouldn't have been allowed
  • The only people who can stop politicians from being able to participate in the stock market is politicians and well…

    Some of the founding fathers were even benefiting from stock and bond trading and selling.

  • Choice
  • It is a two party problem but dems and their cult-like followers act like the politicians they worship can do no wrong. Both parties are businesses and that’s it.

  • Taylor Swift endorses Kamala Harris
  • Wonder who she actually supports. And who her bf supports

  • Trump refuses to say if he wants Ukraine to win the war
  • And Kamala refused to say whether babies can be aborted at 9 months. Politicians being politicians.

    EDIT: She didn’t respond to the Chinese tariffs question either. Stop glorifying politicians. None of them are being straight with you, because they’re playing the fence for votes. You can admit that politicians are bad AND you can still support and vote for them.

  • Missouri High Court Restores Abortion Measure to Ballot
  • They’re basically just doing what the SCOTUS did punting the decision downstream. It’s up to the states and ultimately the people of those states to decide.

  • American woman shot dead at anti-settler protest in West Bank
  • Could be rephrased as: US puppet military kills its own citizen

  • Longlegs: Just watched it, incredibly disappointed.
  • Yup. Awesome production. Underwhelming story and twist. Also not scary.

  • Stay hydrated LA
  • Hahah getting downvoted for posting a pic of a gun for a joke. Only on Lemmy

  • 4hi or 4lo for left foot braking with open diff?
  • For sure. I’ll have to practice some more in 4Lo. I could be expecting too much tho. My car is old and doesn’t have the ABS assisted LSD like ATRAC.

  • 4hi or 4lo for left foot braking with open diff?
  • It’s something people do with no front or rear locker. They try to brake the spinning wheels to distribute power. I only have a center lock.

  • Can’t wait to get this in GT7

    Diagnosing A/C Failure When Idling

    2001 QX4

    It has been 90+ degrees where I live and when idling for more than 10-15 min, the A/C stops blowing cold and is humid. Works great otherwise when ambient temps are low and car is moving. The Freon pressure is good. The Enser is old and has some dents, but has been cleaned and looks to be getting airflow. How can I tell what is wrong? Replace the radiator fan clutch? Condenser? Something else? Should also note that the engine temp gets high when on long stretches up uphill highway, but I think that is somewhat normal for an old car, no? Thanks!

    Should FTC limit how much of a single stock an entity like Berkshire can sell in a specific timeframe?

    Not talking about touching the little guys. Talking about something like limiting sales or buys to $1M per day to curb the leverage these big corps have on the market.

    9

    This past selloff is a clear example of big fish manipulating the market

    Big guys like Berkshire have so much leverage in the market. They can sell a huge chunk of stocks causing chaos and a huge drop in price, then buy low and profit. The stock market isn’t fair to regular investors. You’re at the mercy of these big firms.

    What's happening to my basil? Too much sun?

    The parts that aren’t free are kind of shiny and up close there are little black flecks like mold.

    Thrips?

    4hi or 4lo for left foot braking with open diff?

    Rear LSD and open front. When I’m crossed up do I use 4hi or 4lo when trying to brake and gas at the same time? Or doesn’t matter?

    Dangerous or not?

    New rotors and semi metallic pads. Rubbing/vibratong noise when coming to complete stop and when lifting off pedal from complete stop.

    Just replaced the rotors and new pads. The pads are semi metallic. I’ve noticed a brief rubbing sound when coming to a complete stop and when lifting my foot off the brake pedal from a stop. Is this normal for metallic pads?

    The age old tire pressure question

    2001 Infiniti QX4

    Placard on car says 26 psi cold

    Tires say 32-49

    Rear tire is set to 27 cold

    Does this look under-inflated? What’s the lowest I should go?

    27

    Put single new tire in front open diff or rear weak LSD (~60lb breakaway)

    2001 Infiniti QX4 Automatic 4WD with RWD bias (4WD only kicks in when rear slips)

    Had to replace one tire. Should new tire be on front with open diff or rear with LSD rated around 60lb breakaway torque?

    The rest of the tires have about 60% tread left. Less than 15k miles on them.

    I’m thinking front but want to make sure it won’t cause pulling to one side or mess something up.

    Thanks!

    EDIT: I know I should do pairs. Wondering if anybody had an opinion if I just kept the one.

    If you care about US democracy, tell your congressperson to support the Fair Representation Act!

    Take Action: Ask your U.S Representative to support the Fair Representation Act!

    The Fair Representation Act has been re-introduced in Congress. This bold solution can stop gerrymandering and make Congress work for every American.

    The Fair Representation Act can solve partisan gerrymandering, make every congressional district competitive, and encourage politicians to represent all of us instead of just their base. It does this by combining three reforms:

    • Multi-member districts. In three- or five-member districts, nearly every voter will elect a candidate they support. Voters like Massachusetts Republicans and Oklahoma Democrats will be represented in Congress. Gerrymandering will become nearly impossible.

    • Ranked choice voting for all U.S. House and Senate elections. RCV frees voters to support their favorite candidates, and encourages candidates to reach out to more voters for second-choice support. When RCV is used in multi-member districts, it is a form of proportional representation.

    • Uniform rules for congressional redistricting

    The Fair Representation Act can be passed without a constitutional amendment. It truly has the potential to transform our political system and create a more inclusive and deliberative government which respects and empowers all voices.
