Can someone explain to me how this is a good thing?

They're getting rid of state vehicle inspections starting in 2025.

Apparently, Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed some House Bill 3297 thing in June of 2023.

So, no more mandatory inspections in Texas for noncommercial vehicles starting in 2025.

In NY, state we have annual inspections of all vehicles, which include tires, brakes, suspension, etc. but most of all emissions.

I don't see how this is good for Texans

Bloodbath at RNC: Trump team slashes staff ....

It is crucial to emphasize that when political parties get more extreme and controlling, they often get rid of people who have a conscience or a sense of right and wrong. This makes the people who stay, scared and worried that someone will accuse them of doing something against them.

I'll support those who prioritize reproductive freedom & advocate for a future free from the detrimental impact of Trump

TikTok Ban:
American apps have consistently faced restrictions in China. The Chinese gov. currently blocks US platforms, Google, YouTube, X, Instagram, and Meta, due to Chinese regulations regarding data collection and content sharing.

Google left China in 2010 after 4 years. They didn't want to keep changing search results on Google.cn and said that cyberattacks from China on Google & other US companies were also reasons 4 leaving

What's your opinion?

Ukraine:
Polish President Andrzej Duda joined Poland’s prime minister, the center-right Donald Tusk, on Tuesday for a discussion about sending more weapons to Kyiv. They have an intense political feud at home, but they’re putting differences aside to convince Congress and Biden to ensure Ukraine doesn’t lose more ground to Russia.

The problem is Speaker Mike Johnson he could let the House vote on a popular security aid package, but he's listening to those he fears most instead.

Supreme Court to Hear Arguments on Abortion Pill ...

The Supreme Court will hear a big case today about abortion. It's even more important than the Roe v. Wade case from a couple of years ago. This time, it could affect blue states, not just red ones.

The case is about a medicine called mifepristone. It's one of two pills women take to end a pregnancy. The Supreme Court will decide if the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made a mistake when they made it easier to get mifepristone.
