If these fuckwads manage to kill off the whales by running them over with boats —before the offshore wind farms give them wind farm cancer— then at least they won’t suffer the indignities of trying to get any future oncology treatments from what passes for today’s mixed up cetacean health care system, which really blows or so I’ve herd.
"The Defense Department is invoking national security concerns to try to exempt the oil industry from protecting endangered whales in the Gulf of Mexico." from the NOTUS link
SecDef Kegbreath is just doing what the Fulvous Fuckwad always done when he wishes to ignore laws: "NATIONAL EMERGENCY," ie:
* Slapping arbitrary tariffs on every other nation (well, almost; Russia had already had sufficient tariffs already so no need to increase it) after declaring an economic national security risk;
* Rounding up for export anyone with brown skin after declaring a national security risk and invoked the (incorrectly applied) Alien Enemies Act of 1798 -- it's a well established fact that brown skin = gangbanger and/or narcoterrorist (even if you're a third generation American);
* Blowing up boats in international waters because the regime had gold standard intel that the boats were all smuggling drugs into the US. The Corrupt Coral Coward had additional proof: the boats that were under sail were using known smuggling routes, aka international maritime shipping lanes;
* The ballroom that no one wanted other than him must be completed for national security since a hardened bomb shelter is being constructed underneath to protect POTUS in case a nation that the Pissant Pumpkin Potentate illegally attacked reciprocates;
* It's essential for national security that the ICEholes, National Guardspeople, and active duty military be sent into blue cities to get control of the rampant violent crimes against innocent Americans by the 20 million dangerous illegal aliens that Sleepy Joe allowed to cross the border unchecked;
* Stopping shipments of military materiel to Ukraine was a question of national security; just suppose that we needed the armament for something important, like reducing Iran to a pile of rubble like Gaza. I mean, what's >850 Tomahawk missiles between friends:
Here's the rub: "Only a few hundred of the cruise missiles are manufactured each year and while the Pentagon does not publicly disclose its numbers, one official told the news outlet the number of Tomahawks left in the Middle East is “alarmingly low”. [sic]" ibid

"If the policy change holds, it would mean oil and gas companies wouldn’t have to take harm to marine life, even threatened and endangered species, into account at all."
I'm not sure I understand the problem here. This is just another case when the Nectarine Nattering Nabob of Negativism (thank you Mr Safire) is fulfilling a campaign promise: to let his buds in the fossil fuel industry do whatever the fuck they want in the name of profits... and national energy security, too. Of course his promises to his fangirlz and fanbois, ie: no new wars; get the economy on the right track (which it already was before he screwed it all up, again), or get crime under control (again, it already was before his coronation), mean less than shit since they can't offer enough money to satisfy his avarice.
So the government filing got both its own department’s name wrong, and the name of the body of water wrong? Seems like reasonable grounds to tell them to fuck off.
There isn't a bad, vile, stupid, dangerous or heartbreaking government policy that this maladministration won't institute - or try to institute. We can't get rid of this clown show fast enough.
OT: Just got back from the No Kings rally in Spartanburg. Looked to be about the same number of people as the one in October, but there were more younger people that at that one. Many passing cars honked their horns in solidarity. Some people had signs with a picture of Lindsey Graham on it (they picked a good one, because he looked constipated). "Hypocrite" was written underneath the picture. We hate him almost as much as we hate Dipshit. My state rep was there and I got to meet her! She's Rep. Rosalyn D. Henderson-Myers. And I learned the Dems have a candidate running in all Spartanburg county races in November!
A nuclear vest would require plutonium, the wearer would look pregnant, and the yield would be similar to the Davy Crocket devices of the early 60s: About 20T at the most. This is just dumb. JD Vance is an unmitigated moron who should just sit down and shut the fuck up.
The courts so far have been pretty skeptical about the regime’s use of vague, blanket “national emergency” declarations to get around following the law. But given how the regime has driven up oil prices, it could work this time.
The biggest problem with our National Security is Whiskey Pete himself.
Back from #NoKings ... good crowd. There were four MAGA women holding a big TRUMP WON banner. We marched and when we came back, they were gone.
Which leads me to imagine a day when I'll be waving around a newspaper with the headline, in all caps, TRUMP DEAD.
They are so fucking evil

Save the Fucking Whales!
Adam Serwer spoke the truth (and tried to warn everybody)
#TheCrueltyIsThePoint
And the celibate whales.

INSANE JD Vance Says Iran Could Target Grocery Stores With Nukes
Farron Balanced (5:27) : https://youtu.be/ZmLu7_WusDM
A nuclear vest would require plutonium, the wearer would look pregnant, and the yield would be similar to the Davy Crocket devices of the early 60s: About 20T at the most. This is just dumb. JD Vance is an unmitigated moron who should just sit down and shut the fuck up.
Just as long as they avoid the Ashley store.
Iran doesn’t have to do a damned thing here. Trump and co. are doing all the work for America’s enemies already.
Ah yes. Grocery store nukes. Of course.
A bag with different nukes in it.
Radioactive monkeys could suddenly fly out my butt too.
"They're eating the pets!" Remember when he told us that he openly lies when he's trying to make a point?
They all go on the idea that repeating a lie often and loudly enough makes it true.
I hope he realizes that Trump holds the copyright on that word 'grocery', and a commission is deducted from JD's paycheck every time he uses it.
Only with the definite article. “The grocery.”
Trump also invented the expression "priming the pump." Don't believe me, ask him.
Misprint. It's actually "paying the pimp" aka his bestie, Epstein.
JV Dance coined the phrase "fucked that couch good."
IMPEACH HEGSETH
CONVICT HEGSETH. Impeachment by itself isn't worth a puddle of snot.
Firing squad is most appropriate for big bad war fighters. No blindfold.
Oh, no!!!
Did you lose your cake recipe?
This is so fucking depressing.
The courts so far have been pretty skeptical about the regime’s use of vague, blanket “national emergency” declarations to get around following the law. But given how the regime has driven up oil prices, it could work this time.
We’ll see how this case plays out.
Thousands of ‘No Kings Day’ marches today draw anti-Trump, anti-Iran war protestors
MS NOW (10:57) : https://youtu.be/vSWpwoVzYn4
We chanted "Hey Ho, Donald Trump must go!" which morphed into "Hey Ho, Lindsey Graham must go!"
Well, if either one of them goes so does the other given that they are permanently joined at the head-rectum interface.

Break me off a piece of that.
