MEXICO CITY (Bloomberg) –A former head of Mexico’s PEMEX is testifying that lawmakers were bribed to pass a 2014 reform that opened the energy sector to private investment, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said on Friday.

Lopez Obrador said that Emilio Lozoya, who was extradited from Spain this month to face corruption charges in Mexico, is shining light on how money was distributed to legislators.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Tariffs are unfair to the consumer and distort the market economy

Sunday, July 26, 2020

https://www.worldoil.com/news/2020/7/24/as-the-oil-industry-struggles-are-national-leaders-waiting-until-its-too-late-to-intervene

As the oil industry struggles, are national leaders waiting until it’s too late to intervene?
7/26/2020

*** begin quote ***
 
As major service companies present their Q2 earnings results, they are offering what is perhaps the industry’s leas-politically-biased assessments of future oil and gas demand – and it contradicts how OPEC+ and the IEA want to lead the market in the coming quarters.

*** and ***

In a 180-degree shift from just a few months ago, Texas Railroad Commission Chairman Wayne Christian wants to take a stand against Saudi and Russian dumping of oil on U.S. markets, with what is a textbook argument for tariffs.

Somebody ALWAYS wants to use the Gooferment to protect themselves from competition.

POLITICAL: Goya ‘buy-cott’ begins as customers load up on product after Trump backlash

Thursday, July 16, 2020

“My brother came up with a terrific idea and I am encouraging all to join me in purchasing $10 worth of Goya Foods products and donating them to your local food bank,” self-described “conservatarian” radio host Mike Opelka wrote on Twitter. “Let’s push a BUY-cott, not a boycott. Let’s show the #Goyaway people what compassion can do.

POLITICAL: Why The Left-Wing Seems Insane (Mostly Because They Are), by L. Neil Smith

Tuesday, July 7, 2020

If the human species is to survive the present century, if Western Civilization is to survive, this irrational tendency must be treated as the mental disease it is and wiped out. I am nobody’s Republican, but it is absolutely essential that Republicans retain the Senate and the White House this Fall and take back the House of Representatives. Republicans, for the most part, are cowardly and stupid—the timorous and brain-dead attitude of Sean Hannity and Judge Jeanine Pirro toward private gun ownership and individual self-defense is an extremely sad example—but at least they are not completely insane.

POLITICAL: Is Biden mentally competent?

Sunday, July 5, 2020

The Strategies Of Dementia Politics
Tyler Durden Sat, 07/04/2020 – 17:00
Authored by Victor Davis Hanson via National Review,

Stoke chaos, obstruct economic recovery, and hide Biden in the basement till Election Day… Joe Biden is tragically suffering a mental eclipse and sliding away at a geometric rate.

Source: The Strategies Of Dementia Politics

*** begin quote ***

The progressive media have put Biden’s blank stares and word searching off limits. We are not supposed to remember that Trump was hounded by progressive M.D.s, to the point that he took — and aced — the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test, an examination that no one in his right mind would suggest Biden now take, given that the results would be no surprise.

Seems like an important question to answer NOW!

POLITICAL: But “celebrities” should be seen and not heard on politics

Saturday, June 20, 2020

Brion McClanahan PO Box 2713 Phenix City, AL 36868-2713

*** begin quote ***

Let’s not forget about Taylor Swift insisting that any monument honoring “racists” needs to be removed. I wonder if she is talking about the Lincoln Memorial? Honest Abe didn’t have very nice things to say about black Americans.

Swift is stupid, but a typical celebrity, so you expect this nonsense from her crowd.

*** end quote ***

I enjoyed her early music before she went “big time” and “adult”. I understand that everyone has to grow up.

But “celebrities” should be seen and not heard on politics.

Just because they are “rich”, doesn’t make their opinion any more important than the poor working stiff at the unemployment office. That fellow will at least have their priorities in order.

The Brion McClanahan Show Episode 315: The Third American Revolution?
Jun 11, 2020

*** begin quote ***

The stupid files increase daily. I almost don’t know where to begin.

Perhaps we should start with General David Petraeus. No one would call the philandering former CIA director an idiot. Corrupt, perhaps, but not an idiot.

Except maybe he is. Consider this stupid piece he wrote for The Atlantic on June 9: “Take the Confederate Names Off Our Army Bases.”

Petraeus didn’t know that Ft. Jackson in Columbia, South Carolina was named for Andrew Jackson, not Thomas J. Jackson.

That’s right. An army four star general (with a Ph.D) was not aware of the history of a major army military installation, but we should listen to this guy, right?

Stupid. But maybe we shouldn’t expect much more from a man who handed classified information to his paramour.

His piece is typical virtue signaling nonsense sprinkled with Yankee Self-Righteous Delusional Disorder and topped with a bit of neoconservative Union worship.

POLITICAL: Defining Obama-gate

Tuesday, May 19, 2020

https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/jeffrey-lord/2020/05/16/inside-medias-desperate-cover-obamagate

*** begin quote ***

This week’s news that at least 39 Obama officials had unmasked Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn’s private conversations during the last month of their administration seemed a little shocking. Today, major media outlets are telling readers and viewers that the practice is “routine.”

*** end quote ***

So it appears that “Obama-gate” has three parts to it:

  1. There was 39 Obama officials that had Flynn’s conversations in violation of law, regulation, and the American spirit of fair play.
  2. This, in combination with the FBI conspiracy to take Flynn down, indicates that BHO44 is involved.
  3. And, the liberal Democratic leftist “main street media” is covering it up.

POLITICAL: Did NY Democrats just tank Biden’s nomination?

Tuesday, April 28, 2020

From the Catholic perspective, Cuomo represents another pro-choice Catholic politician who has tangled with bishops, not unlike Biden. If New York’s governor ends up with the nomination, it would put a spotlight back on the Archbishop of New York, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, who has faced calls in the past to formally sanction Cuomo for his aggressively pro-abortion action in the governor’s mansion. But whether Biden secures the nomination, or Cuomo becomes a convention spoiler, bishops this autumn will face the challenge of a candidate who flaunts his Catholicism while flouting Catholic teaching on abortion.

The “mainstream media” is ignoring Biden’s dementia, sexual harassment allegation, and his lifetime lack of achievement.  Never mind the Ukraine and other scandals.

I don’t understand how anyone can support him?

And the “Catholic” bishops kowtowing  to the CINO politicians make me wonder if the FIX is in (i.e., the politicians get a pass so does the Church for the pedophilia scandal)?

POLITICAL: On Making Plowshares, by Sarah A. Hoyt

And while on this, if it hits hard here, will we got stupid enough to vote a communist in? (I don’t like to even think about it. I wake up screaming.)

This election is shaping up to let snowflake young “know it alls” socialists pouring out of Gooferment Skrules to vote us into socialism — the path to the tyranny of despotism and communism.

Wonder if “We, The Sheeple” will wakw up and turn the Titanic to sail between the twin disasters of Crony Capitalism and Socialism.

I’m not optimistic.
