According to most maco-analysis somewhere around forty percent of Main Street economic wealth was lost or suspended in 2020 due to COVID-19. Simultaneously the multinational firms have seen increases in stock evaluations of forty percent. These two almost identical numbers are not coincidental. The billionaire class (multinationals) have gained wealth in an almost identical amount the middle-class (Main Street) lost.

President-elect Joe Biden is set to help push the Energy Department forward using billions in loan authority that was awarded in the stimulus package passed during President Barack Obama’s administration.

The Energy Department still has $40 billion in unused loan authority that it was given in the 2009 stimulus package, which could be used to help fund Biden’s plans for the climate and infrastructure.

"There’s a lot that you can do with the money that’s sitting at DOE," noted Dan Reicher, the former head of the DOE’s energy efficiency and renewable energy office during President Bill Clinton’s administration, who jokingly called the agency "the Department of Everything."

Clinton’s former chief of staff John Podesta said that Biden’s choice to lead the department, former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, “was really good” at managing her state’s transition to clean energy during her time in office.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and House Rules Committee Chair Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) announced their proposed rules for the 117th Congress Friday.

The Democratic rules package includes the revocation of floor privileges for former members of Congress convicted of crimes connected to their service or election.

It would also make it a violation of the code of conduct for members, officers or employees of Congress to identify a whistleblower.

During impeachment proceedings against President Trump last year, both Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) named the man they believed to be the intelligence community whistleblower whose report prompted the impeachment inquiry.

The rules package would also ban members from knowingly disseminating manipulated images or “deepfake” videos.

The package would also establish a Select Committee on Economic Disparity and Fairness in Growth and require committees to incorporate plans for how their work in the session ahead would address disparities.

Have a poopsicle

https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/nation-world/national/article248219410.html

An Iowa meteorologist’s hilarious — and gross — warning about icicles has gone viral on TikTok.

Katie Nickolaou took to the platform Wednesday to call public attention to a very important detail about icicles: They shouldn’t be eaten.

Why? They main contain bird poop.

Nickolaou’s TikTok shows a video of a woman snapping a long icicle off a roof and chowing down, to which Nickolaou wails, “Please don’t do that!”

Many commenters said they’d keep eating “poopsicles” regardless of their contents.

“I’m still gonna eat it,” one person wrote.
