silence7, to politics in Senate Democrats Open Inquiry Into Trump’s $1 Billion Request of Oil Industry: Committees are seeking information from oil executives about a dinner where the former president proposed a quid pro quo

You didn’t read my link — he wasn’t doing that even thought he Republicans made claims like that.

Because he kicked off a renewable energy boom as Americans are trying to displace Chinese manufacturing of a lot of the components of these.

Because that amounted to nothing but BS from the Republicans in congress

silence7, to politics in Trump just made more promises to oil industry campaign donors

Here’s the thing: if it comes down to private individuals and guns, we’ve already lost.

Way better off giving that money to Democratic campaigns or spending it on travel to a swing district or state to canvass voters.

Why is why you tell people about what’s going on — you’ve got incredible power to influence the views of people you know.

He still depends on normal people to vote for him every six years.

It was at a political fundraiser; people there are supposed to be US citizens are have a green card (or be working as staff). So it was probably mainly the US oil companies, but they actively cooperate with overseas ones to push up prices.

Edit: I’ll note that in the past, Lukoil executives have gotten US citizenship, and contributed to Trump post-retirement

I think it’s resistive heat; only way we have right now that makes things that kind of hot. It’s done onsite. Allows reasonably efficient retrofits.

To be fair, this is an investigation of a solicitation for a bribe which happened 15 days ago, and was reported by the Washington Post the morning after it happened.

Trump just can’t stop criming.

The Senate can’t do charges — that takes the House impeaching him or the Justice Department filing criminal charges. A senate committee can however, gather evidence, and then pass it to the Justice Department with a recommendation that they prosecute. That’s what’s going on here.

Probably can’t do one new set of crimes per day (the Senate doesn’t move that fast) but it’s definitely happening.

It’s not like she has a choice; Ticketmaster has a monopoly on the big venues which can hold enough Swifties to create a minor earthquake.

We already know what the solution is:

  • Stop burning fossil fuels
  • End deforestation
  • Stop using a few refrigerants and industrial gases which are greenhouse gases

The IPCC has the details on what we’d need to do over the next few years to get started

He can’t — preemption means federal rules override state ones.
