![Tesla's Sales in California Set to Be Suspended, DMV Says
By Madlin Mekelburg, Dana Hull and Kara Carlson 12/16/2025 18:45:44 [BN]
(Bloomberg) -- Tesla Inc.'s sales in California are set to be suspended for 30 days as a penalty for allegedly misleading consumers about its driver-assistance technology, according to the head of the state's motor vehicles department.
The agency decided to adopt the recommendation of a suspension from an administrative judge, but the suspension won't take effect for 90 days to allow Tesla to come into compliance, the official said during a press conference Tuesday.
Tesla shares fell 1.3% at 6:41 p.m. in postmarket trading in New York.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pnx2fjuannbdpy3337ggthpp/bafkreibpvvgbrxtvgrtlfn5cc464hm6fiprfaiwp5vjhccmfo6lwvvrve4@jpeg)

Michael Tracey has spent the last two days getting mad at Rob Reiner for criticizing Russia, and getting mad at people for remembering their favorite Rob Reiner movies.

NEW: President Trump is expanding the previous 19-country travel ban to a whopping 39 countries (plus the Palestinian Authority), and appears to expand a block on legal immigration to now include spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens, who were previously exempted.

Cars are a lot slower than people think. This driver commutes at 4 MPH. That's barely faster than walking (avg walking pace is around 3.3 MPH)
They could cut their commute to 15 minutes biking at 12 MPH, but they might not have a safe route to do so
We are forcing people into terrible car commutes

This also makes the leftist defense of Russia even stupider because Putin explicitly referred to Lenin creating the ethnic republics within the USSR as his great mistake in the speech announcing the full scale invasion
Another fun implicit assumption from a lot of Russophiles, especially but not exclusively leftist ones, is that 1917 was a baptism that washed away all the sins of the Russian Empire so thoroughly that modern Russia should never have to reckon with them (even as they benefit from them)
The issue is that the modern Russian Federation *does* have substantial ideological continuity with the 19th century empire. Its overwhelmingly dominant political ideology is specifically that of Russian nationalism that seeks to restore the empire.

This is what passes for progressivism and climate policy in California. Jane Kim’s answer for elevated fire risk and actuarial risk? Put it on the public dime. Urban renters should bail out well to do exurban property owners and landlords in fire zones. FAIR plan is already a ticking time bomb!

old twitter was like a place in interwar berlin, paris, or shanghai people have romantic memories about in spite of witnessing knife fights between prostitutes daily and heroin junkies overdosing
My pleases-nobody sense of Return To Twitter Discourse is that the place can never return to what it was, and can never return to the idealized past version we imagine either, nor can that idealized past version be constructed anywhere else because it was always romantic self-regarding bullshit

President currently feuding with a beloved American comedy icon who was murdered 24 hours ago.
Trump doubles down on his Rob Reiner attack: "I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person... He became like a deranged person, Trump Derangement Syndrome. So I was not a fan of Rob Reiner at all in any way, shape or form. I thought he was very bad for our country."

all the intercept comment section post leftist types that bought into Trump's fake antiwar bullshit should see mandated community service
Another US airstrike in Somalia happened yesterday, near Kismayo. AFRICOM released no casualty figures or other information beyond saying it "targeted" al-Shabaab. This is by my count the 87th strike or series of strikes announced by AFRICOM this year, by far the most ever in a year in Somalia.

The Trump admin, in its quest to eliminate the entire concept of asylum from the law and get rid of all asylum applicants without hearing their cases, wants to deport a Chinese dissident to Uganda, despite the fact that he has a slam-dunk asylum claim.

Shout out to winter Divvy riders who’ve been braving extreme cold across Chicago:

On my ride in this morning, it was 10°F but felt like -5°F and people were still out riding. Protected bike lanes on Grand Ave made it possible and safe!
