Over the last few weeks I've seen an inordinate number of dually Penske-type vans pulled over. I don't know why they were pulled over, of course, but it's odd to see the Michigan State Police have 4 pulled over in one week, and to see the Kentucky State Police have 3 pulled over between...

It's less common now than it used to be, 10 or 15 years ago, but we still see it. People see all the trucks, and the vans, and think there must be good money in that. They know that vans are a lot cheaper than trucks, so they think, "I'll buy a lot of vans, put drivers in them, and sit back and...

The cutoff for running without a CDL is 26,001 pounds. Anything between 10,001 and 26,000 you still have to have a Medical Card and run a logbook, though, because anything 10,001 pounds or more is a Commercial Motor Vehicle. As for how large a truck you can run before you are a CMV, it's all...

Trump needs to reign it in. I realize that conservatives have historically set the gold standard for hypocrisy, and liberals have only relatively recently learned to use hypocrisy effectively, but Trump has taken it to a whole new level. There is no defending such frequent travel. Once a month...

Can you think of any other business, that you know nothing about, where you can jump in and have other people running the business, and be profitable? Restaurant? Dry cleaner? DNA lab? Roofing construction? Retail superstores? Airplane manufacturing? Why Sprinters and expediting? Is it because...

If nothing else, it looks like you, and everyone you know, are set for life for salt.

You picked up on it, too. ;) He asked two questions in the headline (which is bad journalism to begin with) and then spends the entire article addressing the first question, and a whopping one paragraph addressing the second question... AND addressed it by essentially asking the the same...

DING DING DING!!! That's the right answer.

They aren't wondering. They couldn't care less. OK. My bad. I got confused when you said, "See the links below for additional indications the Trump base is eroding," as if they are the Trump base.

It's funny that so many people think, and The Press continually hammers, "If you voted for Trump, you're a White Supremacist." Because Trump's core base is just that, alt-right wackos. Quite inconveniently, this ignores all of those voters who voted for Obama and then voted for Trump. But it's a...

Your "fact" is incorrect. Things today, right now, this minute, are exactly the same as they were before Trump signed the bill. Nothing has changed. The regulation that was prevented by the bill Trump signed wouldn't have gone into effect until December 4, 2017. What changed as when the FCC...

He's neither liberal nor conservative, he's a pragmatist (one who deals with things sensibly and realistically in a way that is based on practical rather than theoretical or ideological considerations). Not bombs. They were precision guided missiles, that targeted very specific locations, on one...

They just unloaded 30 Tomahawk missiles onto one base. That's one helluva warning shot. Edit: Oops. Make that 59.

It's true. Everyone who participated in the Women's March gets a participation trophy. Can't make it up. Did you participate in the Women's March? You just won a Freedom of Expression of Courage prize.

I do apologize for being keenly aware of some of the issues and their contextual backgrounds. I know how problematic facts and context can be at times, especially when they fail to soothe the soul. But, for anyone with any intellectual curiosity, here's an excellent piece from that far...

Just as nothing was taken away, nothing was likewise gifted. All of this stems from a regulatory control turf battle between the FCC and the FTC (a battle that I have serious doubts that Trump has been paying any attention to over the years), with the FCC declaring broadband Internet providers...

He was sitting there ready to sign it, but the White House Press Pool kept asking him questions unrelated to the task at hand. So he got up and walked out. Signed it later. That's not entirely accurate. The congressional legislation Trump signed came about as a result of the Congressional Review...

I've eaten at the Big Texan several times, but I've never been tempted to try the 72-ounce challenge. I think the biggest steak I've ever eaten was about 22 ounces. 72 just would not happen. That's 4½ pounds of meat. The stomach of an adult is about the size of a fist. Well, that's for a...

Andrew McCarthy over at the National Review has a piece that lays out pretty well the Occam's Razor most likely way things happened, and why. I am not a crook." - Richard Nixon "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinski." - Bill Clinton "I did not send or receive...

That's textbook conspiracy theory, where the questions themselves lend credence to, or even become evidence, that it happened. A conspiracy theory is an explanation of an event or situation that invokes a conspiracy without warrant, and is generally one involving an illegal or harmful act...
