EVs May Be Eating Through Tires Faster Than Gas Cars
@oilmutt
UK inspections found that 26 per 1,000 EVs had illegally worn tires, compared with 18 for gas cars.
UK MOT inspections show electric vehicles wear tires faster than gasoline cars. Among vehicles aged three to eight years, 26 out of every 1,000 EVs had illegally worn tire tread below the legal limit, versus 18 for gas cars. EVs also showed higher rates of tire cuts exposing cords (30 per 1,000 versus 14). The analysis covered 1.6 million EV inspections and 17.9 million combustion-engine ones. Heavier battery weight, instant torque, and neglected maintenance are key factors. The British Tyre Manufacturers Association reports a 6% EV tire failure rate, above 4.7% for diesels and 4.3% for gasoline cars. Faster wear does not erase EVs’ lower lifetime greenhouse gas emissions.

VIDEO: FBI raids Midlothian oil and gas business facing multiple fraud lawsuits: sources
...
MIDLOTHIAN, Texas - The FBI confirmed it was involved in several raids in Midlothian today, including a raid on an oil and gas development business that's facing multiple lawsuits.
The Midlothian Police Department confirmed its detectives are helping the FBI with an investigation that spans across four addresses in the Ellis County city.
Authorities are reportedly searching in the 4000 block of Wisteria, 500 block of S. 9th Street, 2900 block of Eagles Nest, and 2500 block of Springer Road.
SKY 4 captured images of police at the home on Springer Road.
The FBI tells FOX 4 no arrests were made today.
Sources tell FOX 4 the business on S. 9th Street is West Texas Crude Energy, LLC, a company that claims to be in the oil and gas development business. An investor portal appears on its website.
However, FOX 4 has uncovered multiple lawsuits filed against the company by multiple investors, claiming "all of it was a sham."
The lawsuit further claims that "according to Texas Railroad Commission records, there is no active production for any well on which West Texas Crude is the operator."
FOX 4 spotted IRS investigators at one of the raids on Friday.
"At this time, there is no active threat to the public," Midlothian PD said in a statement. "We appreciate the public's patience and cooperation as this investigation continues."
Kevin Pardue, who lives on Springer Road, tells FOX 4's David Sentendrey he was shocked to see federal investigators on his street this morning.
"Just surprised that you know something to that magnitude could happen, you know, in a neighborhood like ours," Pardue said.
FOX 4 attempted to speak to an individual who entered the home on Springer Road after federal investigators left the scene, but that person did not acknowledge us before entering the home and turning the lights off.
West Texas Crude Energy did not respond to FOX 4's request for comment.
The FBI would not further elaborate on the investigation.

⚠️Kyiv Hits Sixth Russian Oil Plant in a Week as Campaign Picks Up
Ukraine attacked a sixth Russian crude-processing plant in the past week in a sign that Kyiv’s campaign against the country’s energy facilities is intensifying. The wave of strikes forced a major refinery to halt operations.
Ukrainian military forces hit the Afipsky refinery in Russia’s southern Krasnodar region overnight, a person familiar with the situation said, asking not to be identified discussing non-public information. Regional emergency services said an unidentified facility in the Afipsky area caught fire after drone debris fell on the site.
Separately, the refinery in Russia’s Yaroslavl, known as Yanos, halted all crude-processing operations following a drone attack on Nov. 3. The plant, which has a design capacity of about 300,000 barrels a day, is located some 250 kilometers (155 miles) northeast of Moscow and supplies fuel to the Russian capital and surrounding regions, the nation’s largest fuel-consumption area.

Gangs were attacking GSF soldiers from Chad. We arrived quickly and repelled the attackers with our attack helicopters.
The gangs no longer have the upper hand.
À 18h16PM, un hélicoptère patrouille au-dessus de la commune de Croix-des-Bouquets. Des tirs provenant de l’appareil ont été entendus, tandis que des étincelles étaient visibles dans le ciel. La force salvadorienne, déployée dans le cadre des recherches des quatre ressortissants salvadoriens retenus en otage par des gangs armés en Haïti, poursuit ses opérations contre les groupes armés, conformément à l’engagement du président salvadorien @nayibbukele dans cette mission. Le Premier Ministre Alix Didier Fils-Aimé (@citoyendidier) lors d’un point de presse aujourd’hui a déclaré que son objectif est clair: mettre fin à l’emprise des gangs et restaurer l’autorité de l’État.
