    Russian state TV praises MTG

     

    Russian state TV broadcasters who once treated racist MAGA-fool Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) as a joke now believe she's worthy of being taken very seriously - after she made comments defending Putin.


    The republican "useful idiot " MTG believes

    that because Putin has not actually stated "publicly" that he would "march across Europe" then that means he would never cross the border of any NATO country, let invade Europe!  an_shake

    That's her blissfully stupid MAGA thinking.

    May God have mercy...

    Flip flop 

    Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake expressed regret in a recent interview that Arizona’s century-old abortion ban was not being enforced by the state’s Democratic leadership, remarks that appear at odds with her recent public opposition to the law.confused

    The success of the Khavda Renewable Energy Park is critical to India’s efforts to reduce pollution and hit its climate goals while meeting the burgeoning energy needs of the world’s most populous nation and fastest-growing major economy. Coal still accounts for 70% of the electricity India generates.

    GOP refuse to help

     

    The ACP is running out of funds — and republicans in Congress shows no signs they will approve more. Policy experts have described the situation as a fast-approaching economic crisis and a major step backward for closing the digital divide between internet haves and have-nots.

    In May, that hard reality will begin to set in as more than 23 million other households will receive only partial benefits before the ACP is shut down for good, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has warned, a financial shock that could make it even harder for low-income US households to get by.

    BREAKING news . . .

    American oil tycoon accused of trying to conspire with OPEC to inflate prices

                       new_jaw_drop

    New York CNN —

    Scott Sheffield, founder and longtime CEO of a leading American oil producer, attempted to collude with OPEC and its allies to inflate prices, federal regulators alleged on Thursday.

    The Federal Trade Commission said Sheffield, then CEO of Pioneer Natural Resources, exchanged hundreds of text messages discussing pricing, production and oil market dynamics with officials at the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC, the oil cartel led by Saudi Arabia.

    Regulators say Sheffield used WhatsApp conversations, in-person meetings and public statements to try to “align oil production” in the Permian Basin in Texas with that of OPEC and OPEC+, the wider group that includes Russia.

    “Mr. Sheffield’s communications were designed to pad Pioneer’s bottom line — as well as those of oil companies in OPEC and OPEC+ member states — at the expense of US households and businesses,” the FTC complaint said.

    an_lightUnlike with OPEC nations, US oil production is supposed to be decided by the free market, not by collusion among the major players.

    FOX NEWS TYPICAL BS!

     

    Fox’s "migrants-displaced-vets" source was charged with FRAUD.

    The conservative network hasn’t mentioned it.

     

    an_speak    After Fox News promoted a hoax
               about homeless veterans being “evicted”
    from New York hotels to house migrants last year,
    some of the network’s anchors said they would
    provide viewers more information “as we get it.”

    That promise was apparently disingenuous:
    Fox has yet to report that the originator of the
    bogus story now faces federal FRAUD charges.

    Toney-Smith’s tale collapsed within days,
    as local news outlets reported that she had
    fabricated her story and the homeless veterans
    had never existed.

    On Wednesday, federal prosecutors charged
    Sharon Toney-Finch, an Army veteran
    with multiple counts of fraud.

    SHITforBRAINS House Republican to Introduce Bill Re-Naming U.S. Coastal Waters After the WORST rated president in US history!

     

    MEDIAITE, June 13 -

    Rep. Greg Steube (R-FL) will introduce a bill on Friday that would name all U.S. coastal waters for Donald Trump.

    The legislation seeks to rename the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone to the “Donald John Trump Exclusive Economic Zone of the United States.”

    Steube told Fox News Digital he is introducing the bill because Trump “cares about the strength and resilience of our oceans.”

     

     

    an_lightIronically, as president, Trump rolled back more than 100 environmental regulations, with several of them pertaining to the ocean.

    Air that we Breathe

    is ok to be heavily polluted?

     

    WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday blocked a Biden administration environmental regulation aimed at curbing harmful air pollution that crosses from one state to another and contributes to the formation of smog.

    Trump would make America’s inflation crisis worse,       16 Nobel economists warn

     

     

    16 Nobel Prize-winning economists are warning that Trump’s proposals wouldn’t just fail to fix inflation — they would make matters worse.an_speechless

    “We the undersigned are deeply concerned
    about the risks of a second Trump administration
    for the US economy,” the economists wrote in the
    Tuesday letter, which was first reported by Axios.

    The letter, organized by famed economist Joseph Stiglitz, argued there are valid reasons to worry the Trump agenda will “reignite” inflation.
