“The Dark Frog tied one end of the rope to a tree. ‘Turn for me!’ he shouted. I turned the rope for the Dark Frog. He jumped twenty times. ‘I am beginning to get hungry,’ said the Dark Frog.”
The Old Dark Frog orders Frog to turn the rope for him, while Frog looks on in terror.

"The sources added that Patel consistently kept Bailey at arm's length and cut him out of meetings the deputy FBI director should attend because Bailey was constantly flagging things that were unconstitutional." www.cbsnews.com/news/top-fbi...

Top FBI official Andrew Bailey, who was once widely seen as Patel successor, resigns
Bailey was originally brought in to help ease tensions between former Attorney General Pam Bondi and former FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino.

What he needed was therapy & maybe a divorce. Instead he made himself & the things that irritated him everyone's problem. I expect that before he made them everyone's problem he especially made them his wife's & kid's problem. He may speak smoothly, but it doesn't hide the abuser affect. 4 & end/

And he telegraphed all of it. And despite telegraphing it he was successful. So he just kept repeating the same play over & over until he was really rewarded, by DeSantis in giving him a liberal arts university to screw up, w/other sinecures. 3/

He hated his wife & his kid, he hated having to parent. And so he doubled & tripled down on something he could do: use his non-resident fellow sinecure to go after immigrants, women, educators, public health officials, all based on cramming his resentments under the labels woke, DEI, & CRT. 2/

“the person who is CEO at the time a company goes public will, until their death, have sole power over company decisions, regardless of how much investment they have taken from the public” was just never how any of this was intended to work and it is a catastrophe for corporate governance

not like corporate boards have been doing a great job of governance in recent years, especially in tech, but this kind of structure ensures they never *can* perform any kind of meaningful oversight or intervention

this ensures that board seats are awarded as gifts and perks to cronies and friends who will seal clap for executives no matter how badly they perform, because neither the board nor the shareholders they are allegedly supposed to represent can have any meaningful power over company executives

This map from 1951 shows how iron ore moved then along the Great Lakes, and almost nothing about this has changed in 75 years. To make steel, you need iron ore. To move iron ore significant distances, you need deep draft waterways. You simply can not get the stuff to fucking *Iowa*

Here's a map of how iron ore mined in Minnesota moves (the red lines). Note the markers for where steel facilities are located, they're where they are because you have to move the stuff on ships. There are no steel mills in Iowa of any size because you can't get the fucking stuff it's made of there

In a private discussion today this came up: “We need the January 6th Commission hearings, for DOGE.” One could do a lot with NIH and NSF alone. There are clinical trials that ended, patients that died, young people leaving the US… and bad stuff that happened inside the agencies.
