I keep seeing takes that F1 is leaving IndyCar in the dust in America, but IndyCar found a way to embarrassingly link up with an unpopular despot of a country for a street race without even leaving its home market. That's innovation! F1 has to go to other continents to do that!

OK, so Musk was planning to go to Epstein's island, but it's not like he went there with the intent to go to a wild party or something, it was probably just some business. Excuse me, an email just came in.

No, which is why we want you gone from DC, and take your cabinet of rapists and drug dealers and people from prisons with you.
Trump on Mpls: "Do these people really want to have rapists and drug dealers and people from prisons and murderers, do they really want to have them in the community? It's really insurrectionists and agitators and they're paid ... everybody has a beautiful sign with brand new wood. Leather panels."

Borders also keep you in
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

There was a plan in the '90s for a street race on the National Mall, but the Park Service shot it down. They said that it was illegal to charge admission for private events on public land.
President Trump will sign an executive order aimed at launching an IndyCar race on the streets of the District of Columbia this summer during the celebration of America’s 250th birthday, a White House official tells NBC News.

So I don’t know anything about anything but my strong prior is that it’s really likely a loud voice in a rapid response group in Minneapolis is someone who doesn’t like Stancil from On Here and didn’t like sharing an IRL space with him, and wanted to find an excuse to change that.

Lmao like those VA and MD drivers bother to pay those fines when there’s no reciprocity.
DC has both (and they’re both *very* high) plus the gajillion dollars it squeezes from drivers with outrageous traffic camera tickets.
