These people plotted to kidnap the governor of Michigan. They murdered two elected officials right here in Minnesota. They beat Paul Pelosi with a hammer in his own home. They stormed the U.S. Capitol, smeared feces on the walls, beat police officers, and then call themselves “law and order”, and “back the blue”, brought zip ties and gallows, and openly called for hanging the Vice President, and then had the audacity to call themselves patriots. You have got to be kidding me.

And yet… they’re still here. Still bold. Still loud. Still walking free.

Meanwhile, the peaceful ones, the voices of actual integrity are the ones who get assassinated. The truth tellers. The peacemakers. The ones who actually tried to make this country better. They’re the ones who end up dead.

But the liars? The cowards? The predators and propagandists? They thrive. They fundraise. They get book deals and TV time. Oh, and did I mention they win elections?

So yeah, this is what you get from me now. I’m done softening it. If my mouth gets nasty when I talk about evil, it’s because evil never whispers, it shouts. It marches. It kills. And I’m not going to sit quietly while it smiles in a suit.

And this isn’t about politics. This is about a country where morality is disposable and violence gets rewarded, as long as it wraps itself in the right slogan.

And if you need proof of everything I just said?

We elected an asshole who should be in prison. But he’s not. He campaigned and won.

That’s the system. That’s the sickness. You can traffic girls, incite violence, try to overthrow the government, and still get a motorcade and a fanbase. Because in this country, evil isn’t just tolerated. It’s elevated.

So no, I’m not “too angry.” I’m exactly as angry as the moment demands.

End of story.
And I’m not sorry.

CG can spot the bullshit a mile away Lol.

Did you see these?

Then he got elected as governor.
Slick Willy tried to hit on you too, didn’t he, carnation?

LOL! No! I didn't even know who they were talking about until near the end of the school year. Student Senate meetings were in the law building, where he taught, and some other women and I passed this tall guy with springy reddish hair. One of them nudged me and said, "That's the law professor we've been discussing all year in senate."

I kept the outside completely stock, but under the hood it’s exactly what I had in mind. Full E85 flex-fuel setup, ID1300X injectors, DW400 pump, high-flow catted downpipes, resonated midpipe, upgraded stock location intercooler, all chosen to stay street legal but still push real power.

I asked for a clean crackle map in sport mode, and the tuner delivered. He said it pops just right, nothing over the top. On the dyno, he said it even threw a couple small flames at redline, which is exactly the kind of subtle drama I was hoping for.

It’s now making around 800 crank hp, about 680 to the wheels. No CELs, still has cats, and supposedly drives smooth when you’re off it. I’ll find out at noon, just in time for Cars & Coffee this weekend. Can’t wait to feel it for myself.
Wait, let me get this straight. I’m assuming hp means horsepower. Dude, that’s damn near 1000 “hp” based on your post and based on my understanding of what you posted. I have no idea what the rest of your post is talking about LOL. And what’s Cars and Coffee? Car dudes walking around sipping on coffee, checking out each others rides? Explain what the dyno is or why the dyno (whatever that is) caused flames. You may have explained what it is to me before but it probably went in one ear and out the other because you’re speaking a foreign language. I like cars too, but you? Damn, dude Lol

All this time I was thinking he hit on you too. I had to ask LOL!

Yeah, hp means horsepower but it’s 800 at the crank, about 680 at the wheels. So yeah, it moves, but the goal was clean, usable power, something that still looks stock, drives smooth, but wakes up when you want it to.

Cars & Coffee is exactly what it sounds like, early weekend mornings, car folks grabbing coffee, walking around, checking out everything from vintage rods to track builds to high-end exotics. It’s actually a really good family event too. I take mine every year. Gotta be careful leaving Cars & Coffee though. I always wait until most folks have gone. Still ran into a problem this year though. 😂

This year lined up with the Rods & Customs Weekend at the State Fairgrounds, so we made a day of that too. Pulled out the chairs, hung out along the strip while we ate, watched the cars cruise by, then jumped in and did some laps ourselves. Just a laid back Saturday, soaking it all in. We had a blast.

And yeah, the dyno is short for dynamometer. Basically, the car’s strapped down on rollers and run through the gears so they can measure horsepower and torque under real load. Since I’m running E85 and a rich tune, there was a little extra fuel hitting the exhaust during those pulls, and that’s what caused the flames. It’s not for show, it’s normal. It’s just part of how the system works when it’s tuned right.

I know it sounds wild, but it’s all dialed in. Legal, reliable, and still quiet when I want it to be, just not shy when I don’t.

It's almost impossible not to see it. It's everywhere. I feel so sorry for his wife.
