The Financial Times estimates that Venezuelan oil sales have generated more than $13 billion in revenue this year. The Energy Department has separately said that proceeds from those sales first settle in accounts controlled by the United States. But the White House and Energy Department records reviewed for this article, together with a State Department response reported by the Financial Times, do not provide a transaction-level reconciliation of transfers to Venezuela, authorized disbursements, expenses or remaining account balances.

Yellowstone’s oldest wolf pack, Mollie’s Pack, leaves the park, raising fears for its future

Leslie Patten hiked into a remote reach of northwest Wyoming’s Sunlight Basin in December to post a trail camera where she’d earlier seen wolf tracks. At the time, a winter closure was fast approaching, and the Park County resident wouldn’t be able to retrieve the camera and review the footage for months. When she hiked back to fetch her equipment on May 1, the citizen scientist and author was greeted by one of nature’s most primal noises: the howls of wolves.

America Has No President

Teddy Roosevelt. Harry Truman. Dwight Eisenhower. They were not always popular. They certainly never wielded “unitary executive” authority. But they all tried to lead our big, complicated nation and faithfully execute the laws passed by Congress.

Russia Has The Bomb, The Army, And An Empire In Its Head. Ukraine Is Fighting To Survive. And Half Of America Still Can't Do The Math.

Let’s compare the actual numbers. No hyped social media sentiments. Just the cold arithmetic that professional outrage merchants don’t want you doing. Ukraine has somewhere between 28 and 40 million people, depending on whether you count refugees abroad and occupied territory, the war has made an exact number impossible to pin down. Russia has about 143 million. Even using the higher Ukrainian estimate, that’s a population edge of close to four to one before a single shot is fired, a bottomless well of conscripts, mechanics, drivers, factory hands, and mothers who will bury their sons and keep sending more, because the Putin’s state machine keeps running regardless.

Trump Makes Lindsay Graham's Death about Himself | The Weekly Assignment

Republican Senator Lindsay Graham’s passing raises renewed questions about how dramatically his views of Donald Trump changed over the past decade. Surprising no one, Donald Trump takes this moment to celebrate his powers of persuasion in making Graham his strongest defender. And you know what would honor Graham best? Passing the SAVE America Act of course, which just happens to be Trump’s No. 1 priority and would break the filibuster.

This Creamy Angel Chicken and Rice Is So Comforting, Weeknight Stress Does Not Stand a Chance

Are Foreign Intelligence Agencies and Criminals Killing Donald Trump’s Enemies to Earn His Favor.

Note from the author: Last year I invited my mother to begin writing on Substack, because I think she is brilliant, tough, and incredibly thoughtful. So, if you aren’t following , consider checking her work out.
