In January, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said if the U.S. does not hit China’s EVs with huge tariffs, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) will have “pretty much delomish[ed]” the American auto industry.

“The Chinese car companies are the most competitive car companies in the world … so, I think they will have significant success outside of China depending on what…

The fraud that is EV's has now been well exposed. Yet Maine still wishes to impose EV sales on its residents and the "environmental groups" are fully behind it.

Nobody wants the damn things, they run on subsidies more than electricity, (that electricity comes from dreaded fossil fuel anyway), the batteries are highly toxic, mind boggling amounts of earth are dug up to make a single battery, child labor is exploited in the third world for this, they lose charge rapidly such…
