It’s like the ACLU, you have to go against the grain about 10% of the time, so you can shout from the rooftops - ‘We prosecute/protect BOTH sides, so how can we possibly be biased?!?!?! All the while, those who enjoy the fruits of the bias, parrot the approach, knowing full well, that it’s happening.

Or, and bear with me because this is a pretty wild theory, the DOJ pursues cases where they have enough evidence to prove their case in court.

I dunno, maybe these Republicans should just stop trying to steal elections and store classified documents in bathrooms? Or does the outrage have to be equal regardless of behavior?

There's a rationale for it to be sure. But most people's expenses are in shelter and food, and those are very volatile right now. Food pricing is moderately correlated with energy prices, and despite historically high domestic oil production OPEC and Russia production is down for various reasons causing prices to rise. Housing is expensive primarily because NIMBY regulations make it difficult to profit on new construction unless it's luxury townhomes or above. The reason more volatile price increases are held out of core inflation is to measure which inflationary pressures are more likely to respond to rate increases and which are not. So it's valuable, but mostly as a management tool. As we get into fall here gas prices typically drop a bit from summer highs, but it may just be a brief slowdown. Russia has temporarily suspended gas and diesel exports, so unless OPEC opens up a bit energy prices are likely to keep climbing for a bit.

It's only well known that this is from his letter to shareholders. https://reports.jpmorganchase.com/investor-relations/2022/ar-ceo-letters.htm Quote CLIMATE COMPLEXITY AND PLANNING The window for action to avert the costliest impacts of global climate change is closing. At the same time, the ongoing war in Ukraine is roiling trade relations across Europe and Asia and redefining the way countries and companies plan for energy security. The need to provide energy affordably and reliably for today, as well as make the necessary investments to decarbonize for tomorrow, underscores the inextricable links between economic growth, energy security and climate change. We need to do more, and we need to do so immediately. To expedite progress, governments, businesses and non-governmental organizations need to align across a series of practical policy changes that comprehensively address fundamental issues that are holding us back. Massive global investment in clean energy technologies must be done and must continue to grow year-over-year. At the same time, permitting reforms are desperately needed to allow investment to be done in any kind of timely way. We may even need to evoke eminent domain — we simply are not getting the adequate investments fast enough for grid, solar, wind and pipeline initiatives. Policies like the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and Science Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) — that hold the potential to unlock over $1 trillion in clean technology development — need to be implemented effectively. The upside is undeniable: Widespread investing across the private sector will aid domestic manufacturing, invigorate research and development in green innovation, help create resilient supply chains, lift up local economies and build the U.S. clean energy workforce by up to 9 million jobs over the next decade. While major advances have been made in the last few years on technology to help this cause, we are hopeful that the great American innovation machine (most advancements will ultimately come from the huge capabilities and capital of America’s largest companies) will find the additional technologies that are desperately needed. There is a downside — massive, inefficient and malinvestment of capital. I talk more about this in the last section on public policy. Polarization, paralysis and basic lack of analysis cannot keep us from addressing one of the most complex challenges of our time. Diverse stakeholders need to come together, seeking the best answers through engagement around our common interest. Bolstering growth must go hand in hand with both securing an energy future and meeting science-based climate targets for future generations.
September 25, 20232 yr MAGA morons only approve of taking private property for big oil, dog forbid anyone else even suggest it. More selective outrage from the snowflakes.

It's clickbait nonsense.
