January 11, 20223 yr is that list comprehensive? I'd be shocked if only 25 or so congressmen beat the S&P. if that's the truth, Congress is even dumber than I thought.
January 11, 20223 yr I think it's something like only 10% of even hedge fund managers actually beat the s&p so 25 congressmen sounds plausible.

January 13, 20223 yr Pipeline spills 300,000 gallons of diesel near New Orleans https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/pipeline-spills-300000-gallons-of-diesel-near-new-orleans/ar-AASHTQ8?ocid=BingNews Quote The pipeline's owner said 315,000 gallons (1.2 million gallons) of fuel with some water mixed in had been skimmed and recovered, primarily from the ponds. Cleanup work is ongoing. The spill from the 16-inch-diameter (40-centimeter-diameter) line operated by Collins Pipeline Co. was discovered Dec. 27 near a levee in St. Bernard Parish, just east of New Orleans, according to documents from the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. The spill had not been previously publicly reported. An inspection of the 42-year-old Meraux Pipeline more than a year earlier, in October 2020, revealed external corrosion along a 22-foot (7-meter) section of pipe at the same site as the spill, federal records show. The pipe had apparently lost 75% of its metal where the corrosion was worst, which would have required immediate repair, according to the records. But work was delayed and the line continued operating after a second inspection concluded the corrosion was not bad enough to require immediate repair under federal rules, the records show. Nice regulations - a pipleline can lose 70% of the metal in the pipe and still be deemed ok by the Feds. Sweet. 22 foot section found with issues in 2020, but repair was delayed, and another inspection miraculously discovered the pipe wasn't that thin. Amazing!

January 19, 20223 yr Pardoned Kentucky killer sentenced to 42 years in prison https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/pardoned-kentucky-killer-sentenced-42-years-prison-rcna12693 Quote A man pardoned by Kentucky’s former governor for a 2014 drug robbery killing will return to prison to serve a 42-year federal sentence for the same crime. Patrick Baker was convicted of murder committed during a drug trafficking crime last year in a federal trial. He had been out of prison since 2019 when former Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin pardoned him for the slaying of Donald Mills. But media reports that Baker’s family had political connections to Bevin and hosted a fundraiser for the former Republican governor put a spotlight on the case. Federal authorities brought new charges against Baker for the killing in May, and he was convicted in August. WTF? edit: This guy is such a scum bag, that AFTER he was pardoned, there was so much crap still out there, he's back in jail. Why would you pardon such a POS? Oh right, donations.
