So, they're fining him 0.0002% of the current paper value of the deeply suspicious, bribe-like free money he's gonna get at least some huge chunk of no matter what heappens?

@gemswinc Most don't know that the EPA not long ago was considering banning leaf blowers. You mention pollution guessing your referring to the gas engines. They have a much bigger effect on air quality than just from that. They spew huge amounts of particulate matter into the air some particles are small enough to remain in the air for quite some time. This causes huge reductions in air quality which is why the EPA was considering the ban. Even electric of battery powered leaf blowers are bad.

Comedians are complaining about how "political correctness" is killing comedy but the root cause is awkward, because it does not help them.
30 years ago you could satirize whole groups of people, ascribing to them ideas and actions that were beyond caricature, secure in the knowledge that the satire was obvious.
Now, many of those targets of satire are behaving like the satirists joked they would behave. That takes away the joke.

Elon Musk Cuts Entire Tesla Supercharger Team In New Round Of Layoffs
Tesla CEO Elon Musk dismissed two senior executives at the automaker, and he apparently plans to lay off hundreds more employees. This is all happening because heโs reportedly frustrated over falling sales and the pace of job cuts so far. Keep in mind that Tesla laid off at least 10 percent of its entire staff earlier this month.

It occurs to me that several semi-random happenings led the USA to this place. Clinton cigar. Bush V Gore. 9/11. Anthony Weiner. It seems random through 2016.
It's not random anymore. It's targeted at our democracy. It's oligarchs and mob bosses and media manipulating the field.
This is one of the nutty right-wingers (from a secular Kurd family, no less!) who has Bibi over a barrel.

Amazing how during #COVID19 lockdowns, AR15 wielding jackbooted domestic terrorists invaded Blue statehouses, because the Constitution gives Americans the right to protest. Founders didnโt limit that right to only protests that do not disrupt other citizens. Why is now different?
