So, #Trump is soliciting people to pay him $100K/mo for early access to his wisdum on #TruthSocial. What if #Iran & others paid the fee thru dummy crypto accounts for $$$ info? They could play prediction markets to enrich themselves through the same accounts. Or do something worse...

#Trump This song by Bruce Cockburn could have been written for Trump right now, especially after the #IranWar.
Enjoy.

The Gun is the Right Wing's Golden Calf.
Notice how a book can make you gay, a vaccine can make you autistic, a mask can make you sicker, and a poster of the Ten Commandments can make you moral, but guns don’t kill people.

We call ourselves "intelligent," yet the humblest fungus can decompose waste and build soil, a tree can harness solar energy, and a wetland can purify water—all without toxic byproducts. True intelligence is learning from these systems, not bulldozing them.

Meanwhile, Trump has slashed alternative energy programs, tried (and sometimes succeeded) stopping Ocean Wind projects, canceled vehicle charging stations, etc. The depths of stupidity of this President and his cabal are breathtaking. Drill baby, drill rules the day. #EnergyRevolution
BOOM!
South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.
THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

#Trump #IranWar #StupidWars I've thought that his goal is to grift as much as he can and bankrupt the US (militarily & financially), then sell USA to Putin for safe passage and a secure Dacha by the Black Sea. Of course, that getaway plane would mysteriously crash, but we'd be Putin's prize.

John Prine died on April 7, 2020, from Covid. He wrote Angel from Montgomery in the early 1970s. I recorded this version a couple weeks after his death at a "social distancing" house concert behind our house. Rest in Peace John. #JohnPrine #Americana #singersongwriter

We're watching the LeBron of politics of his generation.
Raul Rivera yelling outside Mamdani presser.
Mamdani: “I want that man to be able to afford to keep living in NYC, because the day that I don't hear him yelling at me, it means he got priced out of this place.”
“We need to make this a city where it's affordable enough to yell at your politicians.”

We've screwed up the world oil supply, but JD says no big deal b/c "we" have plenty of oil there4 we (you?) are energy independent. But not independent of oil & gas and we're tearing down all support for renewables. Affordability is a hoax. So, good luck folks. #Iran #affordability #warofchoice

So, just now on MSNow, Rep Anna Maria Lunatic (R-FL) defended the Iran strikes as not being an act of war, because it was just "targeted strategic attacks", so they had no real right to retaliate. By that logic, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was not an act of war.
