Poll: Joe Biden’s Job Approval Crashes to 36 Percent
Just 36 percent of registered voters approve of President Joe Biden’s job performance, Civiqs polling revealed Sunday.

Among those 18 to 34 years old, Biden’s approval rating is only 28 percent, while 56 percent disapprove. Ages 35 to 64 mark Biden’s approval rating in the high 30s, while those 65 and older give Biden a 41 percent approval rating.
When broken down by race, Biden’s approval numbers are weak in some demographics. Only 29 percent of white individuals approve of Biden’s performance; 64 percent disapprove.
Among black Americans, a key voting bloc for the Democrats’ intersectional coalition, Biden’s approval to disapproval numbers for the 18 to 34 age group are tied at 36 percent each, though he fares better with older black Americans.
Hispanic or Latino voters give the president 48 percent approval to 41 percent disapproval.
Both males and females have a negative view of Biden. Just 31 percent of men approve of Biden’s performance, while 62 percent disapprove. Among women, 40 percent approve and 49 percent disapprove.

Finnish Man Blows Up His Tesla to Protest $22,600 Repair Cost
A Finnish Tesla owner received a repair bill totaling almost half of what he initially paid for the car. His response? Have YouTubers blow up the car with 66 pounds of dynamite and post the video rather than pay the hefty bill.
The Verge reports that a Finnish Tesla owner named Tuomas Katainen recently received a quote on having the battery in his 2013 Tesla Model S vehicle replaced. He was shocked by the bill of $22,600, perhaps not knowing Tesla’s notorious reputation for massive repair costs. Katainen discussed his experience with the car stating: “Well when I bought that Tesla, the first 1,500km [932 miles] were nice. Then, error codes hit.”
Katainen brought his car to a mechanic who told him that the only way to fix the vehicle was to replace the entire battery pack for around €20,000, or $22,600. Katainen decided this wasn’t worth it, especially when considering that the base price for a new 2013 Tesla Model S starts at $57,400, later increasing to $59,500 when the car was first launched. A used model usually goes for $30,000 or more.
So Katainen went and picked his car up from the mechanic, simply stating that he was going to “explode the whole car away.”

Katainen donated the vehicle to Pommijätkät, a group of explosion experts on YouTube that regularly blows up various items. The YouTubers strapped 66 pounds of dynamite to the Tesla Model S parked in an old quarry in Jaala, Finland.
A crash test dummy wearing a helmet, a thick winter jacket, and a picture of Tesla CEO Elon Musk was dropped in via helicopter and placed in the driver’s seat. Katainen then triggered the explosion from inside a nearby bunker and watched as the Tesla exploded into a ball of flames.
When asked if he ever had this much fun behind the wheel of the car, Katainen responded: “No, never enjoyed this much with Tesla!”

Musk has previously stated that he plans to sell 10 percent of his Tesla shares, but many are confused as to whether or not he might have reached this goal or not. In an interview with the Babylon Bee on Tuesday, he stated: “I sold enough stock to get to around 10% plus the option exercise stuff and I tried to be extremely literal here.”
But on Wednesday, he suggested he may sell more tweeting: “This assumes completion of the 10b sale,” in reference to the prearranged sales plan of his stock options. He later tweeted: “There are still a few tranches left, but almost done.”
According to Tesla filings, Musk has exercised stock options that expire next year and sold a portion of the stocks to pay taxes, in line with the Rule 10b5-1 trading plan set up in September. Musk currently still has around 1.5 million stock options that expire in August next year.
Following the news, Tesla shares ended 7.5 percent higher at $1,008.87, valuing the company now at over $1 trillion.
Musk sold 934,091 shares this week, bringing the total that he has sold in recent months to 14.77 million, around 90 percent of the 17 million shares he had been expected to sell.
