You’re about to hear many in the commentariat claim a permitting bill, the SPEED Act, will help all energy sources.

It's mind-blowing that somehow Netflix is the least bad outcome here.
Any of these deals would be bad for free expression, creativity and industry jobs.
Paramount, Comcast and Netflix Make Official Bids for Warner Bros. Discovery as High-Stakes Fight for the Company Begins
The first-round bids were nonbinding, with things likely to evolve over the coming weeks. It was not immediately clear if Saudi Arabia or other Middle Eastern funds were involved in any bid.

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

I’m not gonna quote twoot this because that’s what she wants but this is some serious hackery. Kat Abu couldn’t speak about the specifics of her case on advise of counsel and Palmieri turned that into a cheap gotcha. More of a Tucker Carlson than Katie Porter moment.
