I was going to say, coal remains around 1/3 of our electric generation worldwide (as of 2022): https://www.statista.com/statistics/269811/world-electricity-production-by-energy-source/
Coal can't be reused, created, or otherwise obtained outside of mining. Until we remove our dependency on coal, mining will continue.
Nah, he could have pardoned them before he left office but as usual doesn't give a flying fuck about anyone except himself. These idiots don't realize they were simply tools used and then discarded.
However, I could foresee a scenario where another candidate runs hard on the "pardon all the J6 'political prisoners' platform" and get some traction. That said, they would only follow-through if it got them political points or some other personal gain.
Of course, which is why they (republicans) have been working so hard to dismantle free and fair elections. They know they can't win if things are fair.
If conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.

If they are US routes or interstates then yes. If they are state or county/township roads than probably not. Though if I recall correctly if a local road has an over/underpass of an interstate federal funds could be used to help maintain or rebuild those bridges. That part I'm fuzzy on though so could be wrong.
I love the poorly educated!

There is a reason the GQP it trying to dismantle the education system in the US...
Bold of you to assume he had a soul.
I'm probably well in the minority here but I'm curious how true that statement is across the board. Or maybe I just work for a great team, lol. I rarely put in more than about 30-35 a week with exceptions of crunch-time deadlines. I do pull some odd hours because we have a team in India but can just take comp time later in the day or week to offset that. I'm paid (by most standards I know) quite well too.
That said, this is great for the folks that will benefit! I really hope this helps push for a larger reform. Far too many people are getting screwed over by shit jobs, shit hours, shit pay, shit benefits, etc...
He (the candidate) it just targeting key swing states. That's not to say others won't follow and file similar lawsuits which is quite possible. The real question is what happens with them and do they have an real impact.
I've heard that before but really wonder if it's true. My last encounter with (I believe Mormons though it's been a LOT of years ago) was while we were eating dinner. The front door was open with the glass storm door closed. They came to the door, knocked, then stared at us while we were eating dinner as a family. We stared back and they proceeded to knock another 3 times before leaving. I mean, regardless of what you are at the door for that's just rude as fuck so how would they expect a nice response?!
That's where the top of his skull was opened and the brain replaced with a racist bowl of jello.
