It's all electric

HEADLINE FOUND ONLINE: Electric car makers moving into Tesla’s turf with new models

FOUND ON YOUTUBE: The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC | BRAKING NEWS Today

I know, I know; they just misspelled breaking. I felt the need to mention it, though. Braking news sounds like it involves cars or trucks.

Pee is on someone's mind
