When I saw the following story a double-take was warranted because there was a 50/50 chance it was from the Babylon Bee.
The story was not from the Babylon Bee, but rather was published by one of its often close competitors: Politico.
I laughed so hard at this...I hope he does it..lol

Oh, it's hilarious! Just not intentionally (at least I don't think this is intentionally funny):
There’s a great opportunity for Joe Biden to popularize his climate agenda: Electric vehicle racing.https://t.co/C4VTAaolhW

The headline and subheadline are as follows:
***
Can This Race Car Save Joe Biden’s Presidency?
Formula E — the world’s only all-electric racing series — aims to do something never before attempted: Using sports to solve a major policy problem.
***
The answer to that question is "no."
OK... https://t.co/fTzlYWrlxD

People are free to think what they want about electric car racing, but personally I prefer the roar of fuel-thirsty engines instead of this sound:
I think Biden's approval rating just went up five points!
The Daytona 500 would be riveting -- the drivers race for about 40 laps, then make a three-hour pit stop for a recharge, then another 40, then... well, you get the point.
Is there no level of propaganda the media won't stoop to to try and help drag Biden across the finish line?
Here's the reality of where the Biden White House's EV push has been headed:

But the Dems have no plan to give up this forced "transition" because there's too much money at stake for their cronies (and themselves).
