Pelosi walks out on press: I’m done talking about impeachment


Article posted:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi shut down press questions about whether the House is conducting a formal impeachment inquiry as some lawmakers claim.

“I’m not answering any more questions about a possible inquiry, investigation, and the rest,” Pelosi tersely told reporters who asked her about the matter at her weekly press conference.

Pelosi’s frustration led her to walk away from the podium, cutting her press conference short after calling for the media to focus on the Senate GOP’s refusal to take up a Democratic proposal to expand background checks for gun purchases.

“Why is it that you are hung up with a word over here when lives are at stake over there?” the California Democrat said, walking out of the room.

Pelosi has got to be hiding something, right? That's the only thing I can think of that she would be this resistant for this long.

You maniacs! You blew it up! God damn you! God damn you all to hell!!
Because you can actually start impeachment proceedings, make him suffer hearings for the rest of his presidency, and get Republicans on record as saying "corruption is cool and good" you dumb rear end in a top hat(Pelosi)! Meanwhile gun control is a moot issue. Nothing will come of it. Move on until you have the Senate and the Executive, then abolish the filibuster and ram that poo poo though IFYOU ACTUALLY CARE.

Yes, they use the force sensors only. Maybe they look for changes or variation in force too but in any case a chunk of weight is all it takes.


Other manufacturers are much much more stringent, because they are designing their cars with this in mind:


The big manufacturers know just how aggressively dumb drivers are and they work very hard to keep them from being stupid and deflect liability. They almost take the same approach that software devs do with users: assume they will do the dumbest thing possible then figure out something dumber and expect that. (unless it costs the makers 10¢ per part more in which case all bets are off)

As an automotive employee the last part is a giant "it depends." I work in a safety related commodity and literally a bunch of the rules are different for our designers and suppliers. We get greenlit for all kinds of cost increases if it will improve safety, since no one actually wants to have cars be unsafe since we all drive them too.

Most recalls aren't from intentional decisions to avoid safety standards, it's engineers getting too clever and thinking they found a way to have their cake and eat it too.

And overall, and in a large part because of strong regulation, cars are tremendously reliable and safe, especially when you travel the safety standards back through time.

This kind of poo poo can't be forgiven. If it took you until 2019 to realize Trump is who he is you don't deserve a pass. If you jump off a cliff the ground isn't going to show you any sympathy just because you regret your decision midflight.

Caro's book addresses a lot of the parts of LBJ's history and upbringing that this person finds puzzling. LBJ was, to put it mildly, a complicated man.
