Someone needs to investigate the @EPAoig , because that office has been suspect ever since the Bush-Cheney EPA railroaded Ombudsman Bob Martin out in 2002 and wrapped the role into the OIG. So shady, see my 2024 story on another EPA cover-up in Ohio:

When costs are up and profits are steady, that’s inflation.
When costs are up and profits are up, that’s price gouging.
The two largest U.S. oil companies, ExxonMobil and Chevron, report blowout profits that easily beat expectations as oil prices remain sharply elevated because of the U.S. war with Iran. nbcnews.com/business/energy/…

Economist (and Nobel laureate) Paul Krugman: “Control of Starlink must, one way or another, be taken away from Elon Musk. It’s a matter of national security: we cannot let private individuals make foreign and defense policy, and it would be totally irresponsible to leave a crucial military asset in the hands of a racist, authoritarian conspiracy theorist.”

If Musk can spend $735 million on the elections & over $21 billion to buy twitter…
If Ellison can spend $17 billion to buy CNN & CBS…
If Bezos can spend $500 million on a yacht…
If Brin can spend $102 million against Prop 40…

Jean-Luc Picard remains the single most compelling vision of progressive politics I am familiar with — secular, rational, compassionate, egalitarian; a believer in progress & abundance but also duty, hard work, and a constant battle for self-improvement and improving the world.

“Corporations are people,” was the lie corporations told so a conservative Supreme Court would let them buy elections.
It’s time to overturn Citizens United.

Star Trek TNG had a profound impact on me growing up, and Patrick Stewart’s role above all: the secular, rationalist, egalitarian, post-scarcity (whisper it: socialist) vision of the future, a completion of the Radical Enlightenment project married to a sort of Aristotelian sense of virtue, duty, and deep purpose, a Shakespearean, theatrical-literary, humanist forgiveness and celebration of our foibles and fallenness, and Age of Discovery romantic call to adventure and exploration. I remain a believer that this world can yet be built.

Happy birthday to Grace Slick, one of the most unmistakable voices of the '60s
The Doors and @JeffersonAirp crossed paths often in the ’60s, sharing stages at venues and festivals as the San Francisco and L.A. scenes collided.
From “Somebody to Love” to “White Rabbit,” @GracieSlick helped define the sound of the era.

It's interesting that every two years America has the world's most extravagant auction, and we insist on calling it an election.
