I think your math is confusing people here:
“Dieselgate cars emitted 40x the legal amount.”
40x the legal amount FOR DIESEL.
“roughly that means a dieselgate vehicle emitted 400x the NO2 of a gasoline car.”
You’re arguing that the legal amount for diesel is 10x that of a gasoline car, and by exceeding that 40x, they are more or less 400x a single gasoline car.
Now I don’t know if any of that is actually TRUE or not, I’m seeing a lot of the weaselly “up to 40x”, not that it was ACTUALLY 40X. It might have been 25x on average, we don’t really know. Still awful.
But the piece you’re missing is that dieselgate didn’t impact ALL diesel vehicles, it was specific to Volkswagen group. So only VW and Audi, and even then, only the TDI models.
9·4 days agoRead what he actually said which is a line by line lift from Pulp Fiction. He’s too stupid to realize it’s from Pulp Fiction.
Whether or not it’s CSAR 25:17 is not relevant, the original source is, in fact, Pulp Fiction.
He literally did.
Reported here:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/16/hegseth-pulp-fiction-ezekiel-prayer
here:
and here:
Hegseth’s quote:
"“The path of the downed aviator is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men,” Hegseth said.
"Blessed is he who, in the name of camaraderie and duty, shepherd the lost through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children.
“And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to capture and destroy my brother. And you will know my call sign is Sandy 1 when I lay my vengeance upon thee, and amen,” he added."
The line from Pulp Fiction which is not actually in the bible:
" “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children.
“And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.”"
The ACTUAL Ezekiel 25:17 reads:
“17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.”
The additions Hegseth made were completely written for Pulp Fiction, he’s just that stupid.
The devolution of civility in this thread is exactly the reason we don’t allow blog posts and why there’s a rule stating “opinion” pieces may be removed.

Reported a few times as an Opinion piece, but when it comes to stories like this, I lean heavily on the rule:
Opinion pieces MAY be removed. They aren’t automatically removed.
The story here is a direct quote from Netanyahu which raises it above opinion or speculation.
“I spoke yesterday with Vice President J.D. Vance. He called me from his plane on his way back from Islamabad. He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day, about the development of the negotiations.”

They WANT us to believe that, but I doubt it’s that high. Especially when Trump is a known draft dodger. They can respect the office, not the man. MAGA is a cult of personality.
Man, if that were true we would have found life on Europa by now. 😉
