RIP EV it seems. Trump wants 100% cars with oil as fuel, at least the ones being sold in the US.

And now someone is dead. From the thread, it looks like it was plain clothes officers in unmarked vehicles. Thus, using plain clothes masked officers with unidentified vehicles is leading to expected outcomes.

When police officers are above the law, they are, by definition, outlaws and should be treated as such.

And would you look at that, DHS has been using third country removals to illegally get around fear-based blocks of deporting someone directly to their home country; letting someone else do their dirty work.

Not only creating a ridiculous diplomatic incident for no reason, they somehow made it worse by also treating everyone like shit (but that is probably typical for ICE):

Of course, as one who knows the ins and outs of US immigration points out, these detention facilities have been nightmares for decades (which is still disgraceful).

Trump had one job and he failed so hard that made me think if he really has an anti EV agenda. Because his actions points that... when the world tries to stop use the traditional cars to transition to EV.
Oil companies and gas guzzling auto makers lining his pockets. What else could it be?

The impact goes beyond EV & battery industries
This will impact Samsung (also Korean) & TSMC chip fab plans in USA
Aparently TSMC is not totally affected for now, but the image left from the USA thanks to ICE... heck, ICE is about to fully destroy the image of USA big time

I'm sure the foreign engineers and whatnot who have to come to the US to help set up machinery and train the US domestic workforce are going to be banging down the doors to help after seeing what happened at the Hyundai plant in Georgia.

Trump himself seems to realize they really fucked up but the attempt to repair the breach is not even what I'd call half hearted and the Koreans are very much not impressed. Rubio is too busy trying to blow up random Venezuelans to bother going out to one of our most important allies.

Fixing the problem would also mean reigning in Steven Miller, Homan, and Noem, and that has about a snowball's chance in hell of actually happening.

Shart of the Deal, where you bankrupt 6 times and then get elected to do it to the entire nation.

DOJ has lost scores of lawyers and they are trying to set the record for no bills on trumped up charges in DC. Apparently they want to take their self humiliation national.

As they should be.

Trump 2.0 seems to be hell-bent on making China Great Again. So much for domestic EV battery production…we hardly knew ye.
Edit: Yes, I know what Tesla and Panasonic are doing in the US and elsewhere outside of China, but those aren’t fully ramped up either and I believe their newest cells are still imported before being assembled here (could be wrong though).
