Pam Bondi loves dogs. Always had them, one after another. She got involved with dog shelters and dog rescue, and once pulled off to the side of a busy road and got out of her car to chase down a stray. Another dog she helped was a Saint Bernard named Master Tank. She adopted him from a shelter after he was lost during Hurricane Katrina in 2005, not long after her own Saint Bernard had died. The story has been told but bears repeating. Master Tank belonged to Steve and Dorreen Couture and their grandson, who was 4, recovering from the murder-suicide of his parents and losing his dog during the storm. Bondi said the dog was a βwalking skeletonβ and βdying from heartwormsβ when she adopted him. The Coutures eventually tracked down Master Tank, but instead of giving him back, Bondi hired a lawyer, who accused the Coutures of abusing the dog, which Bondi had renamed Noah. βShe lied,β Dorreen told a Palm Beach Post columnist years later. βMy little grandson begged her to take the dog home, and she refused. She thought she would just wear us down. That we were unstable people and would just quit.β The case was settled out of court, with Bondi securing visitation rights, but she never did visit. She got another dog.
This is some genuinely psycho shit...

As Trump and Congress withheld more than half of the $40 billion obligated for hurricane relief, the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority awarded a $300 million, closed-bid contract to a tiny, troubled electric contractor, whose only discernible qualification was that they were headquartered in Trump Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke's tiny hometown of Whitefish, Montana. The contract was canceled once the public became aware of it, but not before the contractor had overcharged wildly for man-hours and expenses. Zinke resigned a year later under a cloud of other corruption investigations. And Whitefish Energy hasn't even proven to be the most blatantly corrupt electrical contract of the relief effort.

One of the best ways to celebrate Black History Month is by honoring the Obamas, who made history in the Peopleβs House by bringing us a prosperous economy after the 2008 near-depression and by advancing a positive, uplifting, hopeful vision for our nation.
