"I'm not a big fan of those crazy windmills," Trump said, mimicking a windmill's circular motion with his finger. "They're made in China but not used by China. Let's look for a couple of wind farms in China. See if you can find one." China is the undisputed leader in wind and solar power, according to The Guardian, with nearly twice as much renewable energy under construction as the rest of the world combined. read more

New analysis from trans journalist and researcher Jessica Kant has found that Fox News publishes more articles about trans people than any other media outlet in the country. And that includes LGBTQ+ publications. The findings bolster what Democrats have long argued, that it's actually Republicans who are obsessed with trans people and not the other way around. Kant also noted that right-leaning publications produce far more articles on trans people than the mainstream media. "Our annihilation has become a central organizing principle of the Republican Party," Kant wrote in her analysis, which used her research to unpack how the right "manufactured the illusion of a dangerous all-powerful enemy out of a tiny demographic with no political influence, financial resources, nor social capital."

I bet Trump is going to have us turning Coal into Gasoline, like the Nazis did!

Leuna works
en.wikipedia.org
The proximity of the site to lignite (brown coal) mines was also advantageous for the production of syngas (hydrogen and carbon monoxide) and tests of coal conversion into liquid fuels on an industrial scale. The Leuna plant for the commercial hydrogenation of lignite started production on April 1, 1927.[4]

In late 1925, BASF became a branch of IG Farben, operating as Ammoniakwerk Merseburg GmbH " Leuna Werke. The site was rapidly expanded in the 1920s and 1930s, with plants producing methanol, synthetic petrol derived from the hydrogenation of lignite, amines and detergents.[5] The synthesis of petrol, although expensive compared to world market prices, was pursued in order to reduce Germany's dependency on imported oil products. As Germany possesses very few petroleum deposits of its own, seven hydrogenation plants were constructed and were producing synthetic petrol by 1939, Leuna being the largest.

"The lawyer also confronted the agent with text messages Exum sent to friends and family in the days after the incident in which he appeared to boast about his shooting skills."

"I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys," one of those messages said.

Boy is bragging on his shooting skills.
He landed five rounds, and he couldn't even fully neutralize the threat.
You can't make this stuff up.

I don't understand how people like Boaz don't seem to care that the cops will laugh about it and high-five each other after they shoot Boaz.
I really just don't get it.

"Not one point places any blame on members of the MSM for their cratering reputation."

Which members should we be blaming?

Case in point:
Sinclair Broadcast Group Faces Backlash Over Scripted Promos: 'This Is Extremely Dangerous to Our Democracy'
variety.com

Sinclair had all their news readers read the same propaganda statement back in 2018.
The blame for that does not go to "members of the MSM."
It resides with Sinclair.
And you're weaseling around that fact.

Tell us which "members of the MSM" are we not holding accountable?
It gives us names, or it shuts its mouth.
