I've been cautiously optimistic about them ever since Farley started putting his stamp on things. I think they're ahead of GM on developing EVs people actually want while DamnNearChrysler/FCA/Stellantis/Whatever We're Calling Them This Year doesn't seem to give a fuck.

I think Ford's propaganda network is lightyears ahead of even Tesla Truck or anything Chevy has done. I've heard almost nothing about Tesla Truck other than some promised range. Ford has already started pumping applications like "Hey, you can use our truck as a temporary generator during power outages." Which, to me, seems kind of like "Duh" but it means they're thinking about how to sell this to a much, much broader audience. They're also thinking about this from less of a driving-only experience and how to make this thing part of the home. Maybe Tesla is doing this as well, but if they have, it's not been very well advertised. Which is weird given their army of sycophants.

Which makes me think they have the foundational aspects down for a truck and car line into the future. Tesla is still relying on their insane trolley-murder-machine.
 
Because that was ADP doing it...everyone knew their number was bogus when they put it out and Faux was pumping it up.
 
Didn't this happen a week ago? There was footage of FNC/FBC all giddy because they thought it was going to be a big loss and then they had to glumly report the huge gain and move on to something else.

One wonders, what is the actual purpose of the Fox Business Channel?

Well...partially. ADP released their -300,000 projection ahead of the Bureau of Labor Statistics as per usual. Faux was underselling the recovery anyways and ran with the ADP numbers acting like that was what the true numbers would be. (ADP is usually way off) Then in the middle of the segment the real numbers from BLS came out and that was all she wrote.

Now ADP is admitting their numbers were wrong too.

A bit like the Church admitting that Galileo was right - in 1992.

It's irrelevant anyway, no one who is already planning to vote Republican will believe any adjusted numbers the Biden admin is putting out.
 
Good idea.

The Communist candidate in France’s presidential election has suggested storming the winter palaces of Russian oligarchs on the French Riviera and handing them over to Ukrainian refugees as presidential hopefuls scramble to adjust their pitches in a campaign hijacked by the war in Ukraine.

Fitch & Moody's downgrade Russia to junk.

(Reuters) - Ratings agencies Fitch and Moody's downgraded Russia by six notches to "junk" status, saying Western sanctions threw into doubt its ability to service debt and would weaken the economy.

Russia's financial markets have been thrown into turmoil by sanctions imposed over its invasion of Ukraine, the biggest attack on a European state since World War Two.

The invasion has triggered a flurry of credit rating moves and dire warnings about the impact on Russia's economy. S&P lowered Russia's rating to junk status last week.

It also prompted index providers FTSE Russell and MSCI to announce on Wednesday that they will remove Russian equities from all their indexes, after a top MSCI executive earlier this week called Russia's stock market "uninvestable."

It's literally written into the constitution that the Congress can issue letters of marque against foreign flagged vessels. The Isle of Man, Caymans, and any other tax haven can take it up with the nearest air craft carrier.
