As a librarian, I watched people’s research capabilities degrade in the age of Google. Maybe we will be forced now to relearn how to use databases now that even Google keyword searches are worthless.

They’ve made the charging more complicated than it needs to be.
All we need is access to an outlet we can bring our own charging cables.
This way there is no need for a bunch of backend software stuff that needs to be coordinated with multiple car manufacturers

I agree with this. People with the below attitude actually don’t believe in American exceptionalism.
The reactionary worldview is shot through with a deep-seated disdain for America.
In this post, for example, the underlying assumption is that there is nothing special about America's institutions and laws, its civil services, its patterns of life and social norms, its historical developments.

Senator Kelly is correct.
Plus a Public Service Announcement:
KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.
The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."
