East–West Crude Oil Pipeline - Wikipedia

There are a couple pipelines - one from Persian Gulf oil fields to the Red Sea (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East%E2...) and another to the Mediterranean. But they already are carrying oil. Would it be worth it to build a pipeline to sit empty waiting for a crisis?

I think Jain is referring to Vindman. "It's a funny thing for [Vindman] to say."

I am a baseball fan and I do math at my job and after thinking it over for some time, I have no fucking clue what "Lowest quotient of runs allowed by defensive outs between tied teams" means.

What's worse is that they responded to having to add 2 rows to the graphic by shrinking everything further to add "FIA Formula 1 World Championship" under the F1 logo like we have no clue what we're watching.

Yeah I thought about the tunnels but when you look at them the ramps back to surface streets are way too narrow.

DC folks actually sort of need to demand that heads roll over this. It’s a real problem if law enforcement in the capital is so pathetic, weak, and supine that their instinct is to act as stormtroopers for illicit federal power grabs.

I think this deserves at least as much sustained attention from US media as Claudine Gay's dissertation

Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.

SCOOP β€” Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

My report:

The canal in that image would be 50% longer than the Suez Canal and like 3-4X the Panama Canal. And unclear how you would make a reservoir to support a canal.

Oh yeah, someone definitely said "I'm not sure you can do that" when we talked about walking home

We were going to walk home (midwives thought it was great, nursing staff was horrified) but it was pouring rain. Friends picked us up, and the nursing staff told us we couldn't have the car seat in our room, it had to stay in our car (that we didn't have there).

BIG PEPCO NEWS: If you're angry about high electricity bills, the D.C. Court of Appeals just tossed out the Public Service Commission's last two-year rate increase (for years 2024-2026) for Pepco on procedural grounds.

BUT: I'm told no immediate bill changes for D.C. customers.
