@joshboak Concerning the study of insurance payouts, did anyone consider the work of Stephanie Betts? How do we prevent places from becoming too risky to insure?
BREAKING: 🇺🇸 Former U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton:
"It is shocking that Trump said no one informed him that Iran could close the Strait of Hormuz. I find it unbelievable that one of the fundamental pillars of geopolitical strategy in the Middle East was ignored. That was the first thing we assumed Iran would do. It is their main tool of global leverage. We are now seeing the consequences of a foreign policy driven by impulse rather than strategy.

BREAKING: Congressman Jared Moskowitz humiliates Pam Bondi by asking her to read the personal insults written about him in the "burn book" that she brought to her hearing — and offers to grade her smears with an Olympic scorecard.
People in the room burst out laughing at this one...
"Madam Attorney General I have like twenty seconds left so because I'm curious and I'd like to see, flip to the Jared Moskowitz section of the binder," said Moskowitz.
"I'm interested to see what staff provided on the oppo on me and because we're in the Olympics, I'm going to give it a grade. I just want to see how good it is," he said holding up a blank scorecard. "So give me your best one."
The binder in question was held by two women seated behind Bondi. Throughout the hearing, they passed it forward to the attorney general so that she could furiously flip through and find a canned insult to uncork on the Democrat currently questioning her. The presence of this so-called "burn book" made it clear that Bondi had no interest in presenting the truth to the American people. She showed up ready to distract, obfuscate, and lie.
"So first of all, nothing is funny about mocking the Bible and holding up a Trump Bible," Bondi said to Moskowitz, conjuring up her best attempt at righteous indignation.
"I'm not mocking the Bible," said Moskowitz.
"That's what you did!" said Bondi. "You made a joke and I find offense to that. That's all I have to say to you. Shame!"
"I want it from the burn book. I want it from the burn book! Which is the best one? Whatcha got?" mocked Moskowitz.
Properly chastened, Bondi chose not to further embarrass herself by reading from the Moskowitz page of the binder.
Her little Bible outburst was especially rich coming from a woman who's knee deep in a sprawling conspiracy to cover up the worst pedophiliac sex trafficking ring in history. There's nothing "Christian" about covering up Trump's connections to Epstein and denying his victims they justice they deserve.
As for Moskowitz's actual remarks about the Bible, they were hilarious and well-observed—
"Trump's name appears more times in the Epstein files than God's name appears in the book about God," he said, holding up a Bible. "By the way, this is a Trump Bible, move over King James. Trump's name also appears more times in the Epstein file than Harry Potter's name appears in the seven books about Harry Potter!"
Please ❤️ and share if you think that Pam Bondi should be investigated for obstruction of justice!
Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change — all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.
BREAKING: on this Super Bowl Sunday, Epstein Survivors have just released this PSA:
“Stand with us. Tell Attorney General Pam Bondi IT’S TIME FOR THE TRUTH”
