“Climate action has often been stymied at the local and federal levels by Republican leaders. But the new report shows Iowa and Oklahoma – all of which have Republican governors and majority Republican state legislatures – led the nation in wind power production, while California and Florida were the largest producers of solar power. Texas is a leader in both solar and wind power.”

“The Ohio attorney general has… settled for civil fines, most recently in 2021. It also required Liberty to sever its ties to some Beers family members.

The IRS has pursued individual family members for underreporting their income and failing to pay million-dollar tax bills. But there’s no indication that the IRS has investigated how several members of one family amassed such substantial wealth in just seven years by running a Christian nonprofit.”

Van Halen with David Lee Roth on vocals in "Jump" has always had good vibes to me:

I didn't pay much attention to Van Halen growing up, but they were pretty hard to ignore, and I clearly have enjoyed their music over time. Watching Roth in that video makes me realize what an entertaining, flamboyant presence he probably had on the stage in concert.
