The 6 largest oil companies will collectively rake in $45B in profits in the second quarter of 2026 — nearly double what they made in the first quarter. Meanwhile, Canada, France, and Spain are battling record-breaking wildfires spurred by the climate crisis. Big Oil profits while the world burns.

Rand Paul forced 85-year-old Fauci to testify before Congress…but 84-year-old McConnell has been out of view for six weeks since his hospitalization and Paul hasn’t said a word. Funny how accountability only matters when it’s politically convenient. #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/Ah6CfULsHTBi...

Dr. Fauci is a hero. He really is. He helped guide America thru a mass death event. Millions more could have died but they did not, thanks to him. Everyone over 70 owes him a debt. It is disgusting that we live in a country that not only dishonors him but actively smears his good name.

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 25 days in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave, is now getting all three.

Alberta’s D Smith & Ontario’s D Ford should read and heed this column by @maxfawcett.bsky.com but they are too focused on against renewables to even consider this! www.nationalobserver.com/2026/06/30/o...

Ontario’s expensive nuclear fantasy will cost the province dearly

Doug Ford's government is betting big on nuclear energy. Danielle Smith's government prefers natural gas. Neither seems to want to do the actual conservative thing: letting the market decide.

So am I the only one who felt for weeks that Trump was planning on orchestrating his “I I have ended the war with Iran and we won” announcement to coincide with his 80th birthday and the fiasco on the White House lawn tomorrow?

Too bad Alberta’s Danielle Smith and her ilk wont recognize how the world is changing and that the good old days for Oil and Gas are gone forever. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/05/27/o...

Alberta's oil and gas magnates are being outflanked by China

Alberta's oil and gas industry advocates continue to treat China as an economic opportunity, one that justifies new pipelines to the west coast. They ought to start seeing it as a threat to their enti...
