I couldn't retrieve this kettle in 2017 after the tide took it away. It has been in the back of my mind since then and today it finally made an appearance. Please take a look through this thread at all the life it has supported and what I was able release. #coastalcleanup Image
The moment I found the kettle again, I thought it was a plastic bag. What I couldn't quite believe was the amount of seaweed attached. I think I've walked past it hundreds of times, sadly. ImageImage
The kettle, heaving with barnacles and some jamming the lid closed Image

2/The statement by @TheJusticeDept and @FMC_gov to reaffirm and strengthen their partnership is targeted directly at the ocean carriers. I have been critical of them in the past. There is concern about future actions to keep rates high, as they are today.

3/The FMC has led a Fact Finding (#29) on this since March 2020 led by Commissioner Dye. It has uncovered several major issues including excessive detention & demurrage and difficulties carriers had with shippers.

Time for a test on yesterday's material: If you were making $3.4 million as a CEO and your largest clients were getting ready to leave for your competitors would you work hard to:
See that is why I hate chicken-hawk capitalists. They love competition until they have to compete. I thought that Travis and his associates believed in the free market. BTW, when we talk about free market that includes a free market for labor. #handsoffmypension

#PASTBLAST: Last month, Trump INITIATED a phone call w/ Putin to offer help in putting out forest fires in Russia.

"They're having massive fires in their forests...I just offered our assistance because we're very good at putting out forest fires frankly."
#HMM: Wonder why Trump HASN'T offered Brazil any U.S. assistance in fighting the thousands of fires in the Amazon Rainforest?

Is it because he supports President Bolsonaro's anti-climate change/pro-deforestation policies? Or because Bolsonaro isn't Putin?
#FLAG: Knowing that other leaders plan to discuss the #AmazonFires and ways to pressure Brazil at the G7...

Trump reaffirmed his support for the pro-deforestation leader.

He told Bolsonaro we "stand ready to assist"...but exerted no pressure/took no steps to protect the Amazon.

#BREAKING: THE WHITE HOUSE COUNSEL, DON MCGAHN, HAS COOPERATED EXTENSIVELY W/ MUELLER'S OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE INVESTIGATION.

He has detailed the most damning episodes in at least 3 voluntary interviews that have totaled 30 hours over the past 9 months.
nytimes.com/2018/08/18/us/…
#FLAG: McGahn has disclosed details surrounding...

- The firing of former FBI Director James Comey.
- Trump's obsession with putting a loyalist in charge.
- Trump's repeated urging of Sessions to claim oversight of the investigation.
- Trump's attempts to fire Mueller himself.
#FLAG: MCGAHN AND HIS LAWYER COOPERATED...BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT TRUMP WAS GOING TO SET HIM UP AS "THE FALL GUY."

They were suspicious when Trump didn't protest letting him be interviewed...

So McGahn cooperated extensively to cover to demonstrate that McGahn did nothing wrong.
