Meet Larry Householder (R)

The ex Ohio house speaker just got 20 years for the largesrt bribery scandal in OH history

FirstEnergy paid Householder $60 million and got a $1 billion bailout from HB6

But wait there’s more!

Trump advisor Bob Paduchik pressed Ohio to pass the bill 🤔

And FirstEnergy (reg. in OH) emerged from bankrupcy as Energy Harbor (reg. in MI, NY, MA, TX, and NJ)

Governor DeWine, Michael Cohen and Elliot Broidy also have a hand in this

Party of law and order strikes again

@annaecook this might be my favorite marketing post ever just sayin’ 😃🙌🏽

It’s not looking good for the company behind Stable Diffusion. First there were reports the CEO lied about having a master’s degree from Oxford and an Amazon deal.

“Meta, today, has roughly the right price and is working forward to the right device: Apple has started with the right device and will work back to the right price.” - Ben Evans

Food for thought is Apple hasn’t created a new device category in its history. Tim Cook is reaching for the stars.

Get ready for the largest metaphor in American history.

Ready?

Donald Trump stopped at the Versailles restaurant and announced to his smoothbrain followers “food for everyone!”

Then left without paying.

Texas should look like Kid's hair. But it looks like Play's hair. Because Texas wanted to hold onto that racism just a little bit longer.

The Alamo was also a fight to preserve Texas's right to keep slavery going. They lost.

You can't just keep lying and changing how history is taught to hide the shamefulness of racism. If you want to be remembered as the good guys, maybe try being the good guys!

Otherwise, you'll just be embarrassed when your kids and grand kids learn the truth about you.

When I look up at Mars, shining brightly in the night sky, I find myself filled with hope that one day I will be able to point and say "See? That's where all the billionaires died."
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” - Carl Sagan on The Great Bamboozle
@mattmay huge congrats! And very well-deserved.
