For satire to work, it must either be so outrageous as to make us take pause or it must be rooted in truth. I believe this is satire rooted in truth.

‘They pushed so many lies about recycling’: the fight to stop big oil pumping billions more into plastics
Plastic production has doubled over the last 20 years – and will likely double again. For author Beth Gardiner, metal water bottles and canvas tote bags are not the solution. So what is?

The 737 MAX 8 BBJ is an addition to 2 new Gulfstream G700's that Noem says she needs for her personal transport as DHS Secretary. Other G700 owners include Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk. The US Gov't operates G550-derived jets across USAF, Navy, Coast Guard and other depts. bsky.app/profile/trav...
The 737 was purchased by DHS from the Fertitta Brothers of UFC fame, who also appeared in the latest batch of Epstein docs released. Believe it or not that paint job is an upgrade from what was there before. www.jetphotos.com/photo/11680322
