The Andrew Tate - Greta Thunberg Mishegaas
Andrew Tate, a U.S.-born former kickboxer, has been banned from multiple social media platforms over his sexist rhetoric. In 2017, he tweeted that women “must bare [sic] some responsibility” for being raped. He was kicked off of the reality TV show “Big Brother” in 2016 when a video surfaced appearing to show him attacking a woman.
Tate made headlines earlier this week for trying to troll environmental activist Greta Thunberg, who told him to get a life.
It all began when Tate tried to troll Greta, and she replied,
But it didn't end there. Tate and his brother were wanted for human trafficking and gave the police the clue they needed to find the Tates. The Romanian authorities saw the name of the restaurant on the pizza boxes featured on the video and raided his house and arrested them charging him with human traficking

Keep Your Filthy Oil and Gas
No matter how much Russian propaganda might claim otherwise, fact is that Russian oil exports have collapsed and Europe is opening up liquified natural gas terminals at breakneck speed, making Russian gas obsolete. As a result, this has been happening:

What Happened to Southwest Airlines?
If you’re the CEO of Southwest Airlines, or most any publicly traded corporation, there are two main ways you can increase your own compensation. They are:
1. Build the company: Invest in workers and technology. Open new routes. Provide better service to passengers. Upgrade your planes so people will want to fly with you. Pay your people better to build employee retention.
2. Use company profits to buy back and retire Southwest stock.
According to corporate watchdog Accountable.US, most of the evidence suggests the immediate predecessor to Southwest’s new CEO chose door number two as often as possible.
All, apparently, so senior executives at Southwest and their morbidly rich investor cronies could get billions richer.

I Don't Think They Will Take His Shotgun as Payment
Right-wing militant Ammon Bundy, who led an armed takeover of public lands six years ago and recently lost a race to be governor of Idaho, vowed to confront anyone out to collect possible damages in a defamation and harassment lawsuit against him with a “shotgun.”
Bundy is currently ignoring the suit brought earlier this year by St. Luke’s Health System, the largest hospital organization in the state.
“They’re probably going to try to get judgments of over one million dollars and take everything I have from me,” Bundy told the conservative Idaho Dispatch in a video interview earlier this week.
Bundy vowed: “I’m not going to let that happen. I’m making moves to stop that from happening. If I have to meet ’em on the front door with my friends and a shotgun, I’ll do that. They’re not going to take my property.”
Bundy and members of the extremist People’s Rights Network, which he founded, were sued by St. Luke’s after they claimed a grandbaby of a network member was “medically kidnapped.” Police reported the baby was taken to the hospital because the child was suffering from “severe malnourishment.” The baby was treated and released back to their parents.
The hospital lawsuit claims Bundy and his followers harassed hospital workers, and fundraised using “defamatory statements about the St. Luke’s Parties and others kidnapping, trafficking, and killing children.”
Bundy and a follower were arrested in March for trespassing when they refused to leave hospital grounds during a protest.
Bundy and his followers have denied the claims.
Bundy has skipped court appearances, The Daily Beast reported Thursday. He boasted in his interview that he simply throws court papers he receives in the garbage.

We All Know the FDA Was Bought Off
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration failed to adhere to its own guidance and internal practices during the approval process for Biogen's Alzheimer's drug Aduhelm, which was "rife with irregularities," a congressional report showed on Thursday.
The FDA's interactions with Biogen were "atypical" and did not follow the agency's documentation protocol, according to a staff report on the findings of an 18-month investigation conducted by two House of Representatives committees into the drug's regulatory review, approval, pricing, and marketing.
The FDA approved Aduhelm in June 2021 under an accelerated approval pathway over the objections of its panel of outside advisers, who did not believe data definitively proved the drug's benefit to patients.
It was authorized based on evidence that it could reduce brain plaques, a likely contributor to Alzheimer's, rather than proof that it slowed progression of the lethal mind-wasting disease.
The Medicare program restricted its coverage, which has led to severely limited use of the Biogen drug.
Biogen set an "unjustifiably high" price by initially setting Aduhelm's price at $56,000 per year despite a lack of demonstrated clinical benefit in a broad patient population, the report said, adding that the company's own internal projections showed it expected the drug to be a burden to Medicare and costly to patients.

Run PG, Run!
Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday promoted an editorial suggesting that he run as a third-party candidate if the Republican Party does not make him its 2024 presidential nominee.
On his Truth Social website, Trump posted a link to an editorial from MAGA publication American Greatness in which author Dan Gelernter compared Trump to the late President Teddy Roosevelt, whose unsuccessful third-party bid in 1912 handed the White House to Democrat Woodrow Wilson.
Gelernter concedes that Trump running as a third-party candidate in 2024 would likely also hand Democrats the White House, but he suggests it would be worth it to teach the Republican Party a lesson about defying its base.
"I have no intention of supporting a Republican Party that manifestly contravenes the desires of its voters," he writes. "The RNC can pretend Trump isn’t loved by the base anymore, that he doesn’t have packed rallies everywhere he goes. But I’m not buying it: Talk to Republican voters anywhere outside the Beltway, and it is obvious that he is admired and even loved by those who consider themselves 'ordinary' Americans."
