Here's a nice cloud of toxic dust being spewed over Detroit, courtesy of the Koch brothers. It's from petroleum coke (waste from Canadian tar sands shipped from Alberta to Detroit) that's been illegally stored by the Koch Brothers along the Detroit River. It's full of lead, sulfur, zinc and the likely carcinogenic vanadium.


Koch Bros - It's the evil thing.

Do you suppose it's a coincidence that officials are saying that an NSA intercept prompted this new al Qaeda alert?

Not that you didn't know this, of course, but it's nice to have some figures to throwback at politicians and "journalists" the next time they start explaining to us how very, very urgent it is to cut Medicare.

In other news, Nancy Mace announced today that she will challenge Senator Lindsey Graham during the 2014 Republican primary. According to Mace, Graham is not conservative enough. The guy who said we should torture the Boston bombers. The man who wants to bomb, bomb, bomb Iran by the end of the year. Not conservative enough.

Also — you may enjoy this epic George Clooney rant as much as I did. I think it's safe to say he is not a fan of hedge funds.
