A Secret Oil Cartel Might Have Killed Our Clean-Energy Future In a landmark antitrust case, Michigan alleges oil companies colluded to β€œcapture and kill” clean-energy and electric-vehicle efforts.

Big Oil "purchased solar and EV patents to ensure others couldn’t use them, solicited control of renewable markets and then abandoned them, and funded powerful institutions to promote false solutions, all while using trade groups to downplay the harms of fossil fuels, according to the complaint." 😠

ICE agents can't make warrantless arrests in Oregon unless there's a risk of escape, US judge rules A judge says U.S. immigration agents in Oregon must stop arresting people without warrants unless they are likely to escape. U.S.

Watch lawless ICE thugs now start every paper with claim that they were an "escape risk"!

Illiterate, Ignorant, untrained KKK/ProudBoy/3%er are NOT LAW ENFORCEMENT!!

And have no business being on the street until they are taught legal procedures!!

there's something unholy about the Trump administration being laser focused on "fraud" while Trump pardons an endless clown car of fraudsters and bilks taxpayers at every opportunity. it's just transparently absurd.

The Washington Post Dies in Daylight Civic vandalism and the mutilation of a great paper.

"The Post as it existed last week, has ceased to exist…This is a story about incompetent leadership that destroyed the paper’s economic viability. It’s a story of self-mutilation."

We can’t have someone enforcing the law who isn’t even following the law himself. The American people deserve to know if Tom Homan took $50k from an FBI undercover agent and what he did with the money.

Tourism is now a non existent buisness in America. It was one of our best soft power promotions that made us money . For people worldwide to come and tour our country made us a better country . No more . We will be forever digging out from this white nationalist hate.

This is a big deal.

No matter how many awful things come out of this White House, you can organize your community to fight back against tyranny.

We must also continue to boycott ICE's corporate collaborators like Amazon, AT&T, and any other company trying to profit off this misery.

Jeff Bezos took over the Washington Post Editorial Board and turned it into a mouthpiece for pro-corporate, pro-billionaire propaganda.

Now, WaPo is laying off hundreds of *real* journalists β€” including the reporter covering Amazon.

Democracy dies in billionaire hands.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

I hate billionaires. I revered the Washington Post. Today is a huge loss for journalism. America desperately needs watchdogs.

But also why the fuck would anyone pay for what legacy media has become?
