It's that time of the year again: Orphan chicks, dead roosters, unhappy hens, and overwhelmed sanctuaries due to the fad for backyard eggs. If you know someone thinking of buying chicks, send them here: vinesanctuary.org/whats-wrong-...

Why isn't it immediately obvious to everyone that the solution is to move away from dependence on oil?

(I know why there is resistance, of course. The oil industry generates a lot of money.)

If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.

Billionaires should not be making tax policy.

Businesses should not be making tax policy.

Tax policy is a tool for managing the behaviour of the rich.

Letting them dictate tax policy is like letting the worst kids at school decide the classroom rules.

Yes, Trump started a war and canโ€™t figure how to get out of it. Gas prices are spiking, groceries cost a fortune, airline fares are rising, the Attorney General was just fired, the job market is wretched, the national debt is out of control, but the president is laser focused.

Bondi was awful, but no worse than Patel. Noem was terrible, but no worse than Hegseth. Funny that itโ€™s only the women who get fired.

Noem, Bondi and soon to be Tulsi Gabbard.

You canโ€™t lie under oath in front of the Senate in oversight hearingsโ€ฆ

But it also squares with a felonious adjudicated rapist โ€” who also doubles as a misogynist โ€” that he would fire his female cabinet members first.
