IIRC, the M-14 fired a 30-06 or 7.62x51mm cartridge. So he's probably trying to make a semi-automatic deer rifle owned by many hunters sound militaryish. Similarly, his "AR-15 modified" may just be a deer and varmint rifle chambered in .223.

Men who served in Vietnam are in their 70s or older, and if he really carried an M-14 in Vietnam, MarineCombatEngineer may be in his 80s. His bluster suggests to me that his bluster is bigger than what he was and, courtesy of his age and probable health, even less. As an obnoxoid Lib once posted on the ancient Capitol Hill Blue Reader Rant discussion board (ca. 1999 or 2000), "On the Internet you can be whatever you say you are."

I have several M1A's which is the civilian equivalent (scary military looking) select fire delete version of the M-14 they all fire the 7.62x51mm NATO or .308 cartridge. 

New York City Says This Rideshare App May Owe Millions In Unpaid Congestion Fees
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/new-york-city-says-rideshare-app-may-owe-millions-unpaid-congestion-fees

New York City Council Majority Leader Shaun Abreu is calling on the MTA to investigate rideshare platform Empower, arguing the company may be sidestepping New York City's congestion pricing system while gaining an unfair advantage over licensed competitors like Uber, Lyft and the city's yellow taxi fleet, according to the NY Post..

The Post writes that cecause Empower does not hold a Taxi and Limousine Commission license, Abreu contends it has not been collecting the per-trip congestion charges that licensed for-hire vehicles are required to pass along to passengers, allowing the company to advertise lower fares.

According to Abreu, if Empower is facilitating as many as one million rides per month in New York City, the unpaid congestion fees could amount to tens of millions of dollars annually that would otherwise help fund the region's transit system. He has asked the MTA to determine how many Empower trips entered the congestion pricing zone without paying the required toll, calculate any missing revenue and pursue repayment if appropriate.

Those congestion fees are pointless. Where does the money go? More reason why people leave New York City.

In what Laws-of-Physics-violating, perpendicular universe is this happening?

You're demands that leftists stop their campaigns of violence is genocide against them.

Or something.

King County, WA Director of Elections Email About Non-Citizen Being Registered to Vote

https://x.com/libsoftiktok/status/2080693269550260488

MAJOR SCOOP: Email obtained via FOIA shows Julie Wise, the Democrat-endorsed Director of Elections for King County, WA, ADMITTING that non-citizens were being registered to vote when getting a driver's license.

She then voices concern that the problem may be bigger than what the reports showed.

The email is dated 2019 ... from the Director of Elections of just one county. The registration error is at the state level, so every county in Washington had the same problem of non-citizens being registered to vote via Motor Voter. First the State of New Jersey admitted to 6,600 (wink! wink!) non-citizens being improperly registered to vote, now a county official in Washington admitted that her state-wide process had a similar defect.

IOW, it's not a question of IF any other states, but of how many other states. It's time to barrage states with FOIA requests similar to what Libs of TikTok did in Washington. Do it very publicly, very publicly expose every state that fails to respond within their legally allotted time, and very publicly announce and sue every state that pushes back.

Pesident G. H. W Bush vetoed a previous "National Voter Registration Act" that included Motor Voter. Congress passed and Clinton signed the National Voter Registration Act of 1993. I'm no genius, something I demonstrate regularly, but even way back then I knew that this would open US voter rolls to massive improper voter registrations.

The elections processes of Covid Year 2020 mean that every errantly-illegally registered non-citizen received primary and general elections ballots by mail. California, at least, continues to mail ballots to every registered voter - registered non-citizens, persons registered at multiple addresses, dead people lazily not removed from voter rolls.

Threats against dems and progressives????  What is this DUmmie talking about.

Hmmm, A m-14 is an actual select fire "assault weapon" .  Doubt you have the resources.
