US congress person Tony Gonzales, Texas District 23 is a bad person. "When you are a congressman, they let you do anything."

Mr Gonzales, married, sexually pursued his staffer Regina Ann Santos-Aviles, who subsequently committed suicide. Now surface reports he sexually pursued a campaign aide in 2020.

Party of Epstein, though there are dems with problems too.

Gonzales declined to run again, but people for good reason are demanding his resignation.

Just do a news search for representative+tony+gonzales+texas.

Aramco is by far the biggest winner, estimated to make a war profit of $25.5bn in 2026 if the oil price averages $100. That is on top of the huge profits habitually made by the majority state-owned Saudi company – $250m a day between 2016 to 2023. Saudi Arabia has for decades led successful efforts to block and delay international climate action.

The Telegraph loves Brit tabloid headlines.

"FBI director Kash Patel denies he is threat to national security"

“Part of me is glad he’s wasting his time on bullshit, because it’s less dangerous for rule of law, for the American public,” one official told me, “but it also means we don’t have a real functioning FBI director.”

In a sure sign, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt: "Director Patel remains a critical player on the administration’s law and order team.”

Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has "problems" too.

No surprise.....

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergius_process

Towards the end of World War II the United States began heavily financing research into converting coal to gasoline, including money to build a series of pilot plants. The project was enormously helped by captured German technology.[8] One plant using the Bergius process was built in Louisiana, Missouri and began operation about 1946. Located along the Mississippi river, this plant was producing gasoline in commercial quantities by 1948. The Louisiana process method produced automobile gasoline at a price slightly higher than, but comparable to, petroleum-based gasoline[9] but of a higher quality.[citation needed] The facility was shut down in 1953 by the Eisenhower administration, allegedly after intense lobbying by the oil industry.[9]
