The Trump regime claims it wants to make America an energy superpower.
So why is it blocking billions of dollars in wind energy projects?

Tickets still available to watch two longshots play soccer tomorrow in Toronto.
The cheap seats are under $700.
If you want to smell the sweat, expect to pay $4,000.

Web comic #Brittlestar tries to fix his stove with AI - and the results aren't bad.

Thomas L. Friedman in the NY Times:
"With each passing month of his presidency, Donald Trump behaves more like America’s commander in thief."
While his troops fight a war, "Trump engaged in a brazen attempted heist of the US Treasury to benefit himself, his family & his allies."

Thomas L. Friedman in NYT:
"Nothing is more demoralizing for U.S. troops fighting abroad than to look back and see our country ripping itself apart.
"Nothing encourages an enemy to hold out for better terms for ending a war with America than seeing America at war with itself."

Heather Cox Richardson: WaPost says Trump hopes to make a statement at the Ultimate Fighting match coming to the White House on June 14. The Pentagon wants hundreds of troops to come in uniform - and pay their own expenses.
But first they must meet height & weight requirements!

Mark Carney had a great line explaining why Canada is making progress on its economic agenda amid the uproar caused by Trump.
“Because our reputation as a reliable, predictable partner has rarely been more valuable in a world where transactions are replacing relationships.”

In the southwest, America is running out of water.
And no one seems to care. Yet.
"Maybe this is the first worldwide climate crisis that's going to force fundamental policy-level decisions to be made, and fundamental changes in how we operate."

Employees at the US Labor Department are being urged to file whistleblower complaints and report instances of “diversity, equity, and inclusion”-related discrimination.
Said one decent human being: "They’re trying to institute a culture of fear.”
