I'm not sure where that fits in the "keep your powder dry" planetary husbandry protocol. I'm grateful we had enough fossil fuel to enable us to bridge from fire at the mouth of the cave, to completing the conversion to renewable energy (or whatever replaces it). Do we get a depletion $bonus...

Trump directs military to strike new deals with coal-fired power plants: ‘Going to be buying a lot of coal’ President touts 'more reliable power and stronger and more resilient grid power' while criticizing wind energy as 'crazy windmills' By Jasmine Baehr Fox News Published...

- ok - It is 2026. Right? And while U.S. President Trump has advocated acquiring U.S. sovereign control of Greenland, & Canada, have we missed something here? "Canada owns the land on both sides" ?! Oh Donald ! I thought you said "America First". First to become Canadian?!

update Update: 11AM/ET NPR reports Democrats have been undis-invited.

In February 2026 Minnesota, I agree. I'd avoid making it an absolute rule, we don't know when the next global pandemic will hit. IIRC in the '50's & '60's armed government agents wore uniforms, name, & rank. Without a persuasive argument about why those standards no longer apply, why are they...

"Repeal" refers to legislative reversal, not unilateral executive contradiction. "Finding" is the result of investigative process. Political opposition can reverse policy. It does not revise the rules of logic that produced the finding.

Yes. I wouldn't absolutize my use of the word "payroll". It was substantially (though not entirely) metaphorical. My allusion: a U.S. government $paycheck is a license to kill. But the duty roster should suffice. Whether the shift is divided into individual teams, with individual squad...

Please forgive me S2. When I first read this it struck me as a quip. But upon deeper reflection this may help explain the broader MAGA horde. It's a synergistic, self-catalyzing snarl of lies, misrepresentations, & conspiracy theories. Would Trump have won any of the "3" elections he claims to...

Good idea Donald. All you have to do is agree to pay Canada half the $4.6bn cost, and after that we'll be able to DO exactly the same as if we DON'T, & save the $2.3bn.

"35"? I don't know how many are on each team. I suspect it's more likely to be 35 per shift than per team. BUT even if 35, a close-up typical of those cell-camera witnesses have already captured should be enough. Bottom line: If the commander wanted to divulge the identity of an errant agent...

Indeed. The Nancy Guthrie abduction provides constructive contemporary insight into that, mask and all. When candidates number in the hundreds of millions it may be difficult to know. BUT ! When the suspect is an ostensible government agent, ostensibly on duty, all they need do is canvas the...

Really? If so, what then? Murder? And getting away with it ?!

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/politics-cartoons-slideshow#4afba600-0b06-5694-a21e-36595fbf0388 That seems unlikely foxnews. My experience reviewing public opinion polling data indicates varying demographics tend to vary on such beliefs. Care to quote your source foxnews?

- update - Annual governors' gathering with White House unraveling after Trump excludes Democrats JOEY CAPPELLETTI, STEVE PEOPLES and STEVEN SLOAN / Tue, February 10, 2026 at 11:37 AM GMT-5 WASHINGTON (AP) — An annual meeting of the nation’s governors that has long served as a rare bipartisan...

For decades the U.S.' fourth estate has been redesigned by our evolving techno-culture. Though even newspaper readers may not have fully noticed the evolution, the bustling newsroom is an anachronism. It is a painful, alarming reality that mass communication has never been better facilitated...

Six drumsticks ! Allah be praised ! Some good news, and some bad news: The good news, by 2030 over half the drinking water in the U.S. will come from sewage treatment plants. The bad news, there won't be enough of it to meet demand. [inspired by Paul Harvey]

"... yes, you're guilty" of what? If there's conclusive evidence an individual had a clear idea of what to expect, attended, and willingly participated, we'd have grounds to accuse guilt. If an individual attended on more than one occasion we'd have grounds to accuse guilt. Without that?

And within a capitalist system, that polling is conducted in the marketplace: "supply & demand". Is that a problem? Seems to me willing business partners that adhere to the rules established for their trade group is entitled to the benefits of such commerce. Violating those rules subjects...
