Porzio recently teamed up with @prblockchain1 to host a private screening of "Dirty Coin," an award-winning documentary by Alana Mediavilla exploring the controversial world of Bitcoin mining. Several Porzio attorneys attended the event and we’re proud to have sponsored.

@elonmusk is showing his true colors. It’s a shame, as it sends a clear message to investors in all his companies: run.

@WJCaruso @SpiritAirlines @WDWGuestService Do you get what you pay for with @SpiritAirlines? Really? I have a whole lotta credits for cancelled flights that will remain unused. Sounds like @WaltDisneyWorld may have found a new merger partner, or at least @SpiritAirlines is running its transportation.

@WJCaruso @WJCaruso, #wdw50 is rapidly becoming the Spirit Airlines of theme parks. So disappointed.

I've never seen this written in federal criminal case before

In new motion, Jan 6 defendant Derek Jancart, who's pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct, asks court to spare him prison

*Among many other things, he argues..... "he did not contemplate defacating on anyone's desk"*

@WJCaruso I’m old enough to remember when the only media were the press photographers in the committee room.

@OmarAlbertoVA Congratulations!

That's six of the largest containerships in the world for $920 million, or $153 million each. Meanwhile, the latest two Jones Act containerships built cost $209 million each and had a cargo capacity 6.6x smaller. And the shipyard that built them lost money on the deal!

Must-read Bloomberg editorial on yesterday's Jones Act meeting.

#EndTheJonesAct

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

🚢 President Trump just made a terrible decision on the Jones Act. It prevents:

- Cheap and fast clean energy delivery from the U.S. ➡️ Puerto Rico
- The Northeast from tapping into U.S. natural gas
- A reduction of gas imports from suppliers like Russia https://t.co/MdWfIKJTh9

CEO of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority: purchasing U.S. LNG could save PREPA up to $300 million per year. Potential business for domestic LNG producers if allowed to transport LNG by ship to Puerto Rico and New England: $3 billion ($1bn NE, $2bn PR). #EndTheJonesAct

[Bill Hughes, Jr. @Hughes4SJersey]

Time to grant Puerto Rico a Jones Act LNG Waiver. It promotes US Jobs, Economy and National Security. Great panel thx to @cpgrabow.
