But governments around the world — and even in the United States — are today, and have been in the past, engaged in production in a vast array of different industries, sometimes competing with the private sector, in other cases as monopoly producers. Even in capitalist societies, there has been a widely held principle that certain things are so critical to the functioning of life and the economy, they shouldn’t be left to the whims of unaccountable private actors looking to get rich at any cost, but be put under some kind of democratic control and their revenues allowed to be recycled for the common good.

It took the Norfolk Southern incident for major US rail companies to take a 2007 common-sense program seriously Keeping a watch on Norfolk Southern cleaning up the toxic chemical spill from its train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, was only the start. The government is now looking at ways to prevent an incident like that altogether.Read more... https://qz.com/norfolk-southern-ohio-east-palestine-close-call-report-1850183157

Pete Buttigieg is a hero to me. Meeting and talking with him about my dark sky advocacy and the impact of light pollution on all things living was something I’ve been dreaming about. He did say “ We are looking at color temperatures.” Which is so promising The man exemplifies courage and compassion to go on Fox and embrace his detractors with the same evenness as his supporters. That is a higher consciousness. Meeting Pete and Chasten caused my heart rate to jump like a seismograph in SF during a quake. #petebuttigieg #chastenbuttigieg #bidenadministration #democrat #democracy #departmentoftransportation #darksky #lightpollution @pete.buttigieg @chasten.buttigieg https://www.instagram.com/p/CinPNEeL6jk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A long personal account of what a "Lock Down Drill" looks like in a kindergarten class.

Written by Twitter user @Readers4Pete

A long personal account of what a "Lock Down Drill" looks like in a kindergarten class. #GunControlNow

And this is what @PeteButtigieg means when he says: "We are teaching kids lock down drills before they learn to read."

I volunteered in my son's Kindergarten class yesterday. They were having a lock down drill.

The teacher calmly explained that it is like a fire drill and we are practicing to know what to do if there's a dangerous person in our neighborhood.

The veteran teacher's voice cracked. She was staying calm and very professional. But I could tell this was not easy for her.

She's probably about 60 and has been teaching for at least 30 years. This is new to her too.

The students all 5-6 year olds looked on with wide eyes. Some looked scared, others looked amused and some had blank stares.

I was tasked with closing all the blinds and the teacher was going to lock the doors. The kids were instructed to sit in an oval quietly on the floor.

They were then told that the principal will come and knock on the door but they are to ignore it and stay quiet. When the principal unlocks the door and tells them the drill is over they may get up.

Did I mention these were kindergarteners that were practicing writing the letter "R" just moment ago?

Most of them still can't pronounce "R" and say the "W" sound instead.

The call came in to start the drill.

I ran to close all the blinds, thinking why are there so many windows and so many damn blinds. If this were a real drill would I really be able to close all of these in time? If the parent volunteer weren't here would the teacher be able to?

The kids all followed instructions and sat in an oval in the middle of the room…the way they do when they play duck duck goose. And all I could think is, if this was real wouldn't they all be sitting ducks for a person with a gun?

I held my son tight.

A lot of kids now looked scared but they stayed quiet. I was seated directly in front of the door…why does the door have such a big gap underneath?

Why is there glass on the door?

I need to remember to breathe.

My daughter who is 7 is down the hall and I can't help her. If this were real, would I run to her?

Stay with the 5 year old?

Would my 7 year old survive this?

Who's comforting her?

I held my son tight as I tried to hold back tears.

Knock…

The knock came and the kids all kept quiet.

The principal opened the door and ended my nightmare.

But it hasn't ended. These kids went through this ordeal to protect someone's idea of freedom to carry a weapon and use it at will. I thought, when Pete says we're teaching kids lock down drills before they learn how to read…This is exactly what it looks like.

It's no longer theoretical for me. It was real and I will never forget the helplessness.

Moment later the kids went back to their tasks and building blocks. As I tried to breathe and keep it together until I got home and cried in my husband's arms for the horror we have created.

This was a blast from the past. Mayor Pete was the best selling custom of 2019. I came across another head in my stash so I put the listing up just in case someone wanted one. It shipped off to its new home today. Spasticcustoms.etsy.com #funko #popvinyl #funkocustoms #popcustoms #spasticcustoms #customfunko #custompop #mayorpete #petebuttigieg

If *The Truman Show* centred around a gay politician, this is what he would look like: the embodiment of the American Dream, with a rainbow-hued halo delicately hovering around his head. The problem for Buttigieg is that no matter how hard he tries, it’s hard for anyone on either side of politics to imagine that he really cares about the human beings affected by, well, life in general.

Pete Buttigieg Is Still Playing

Pete Buttigieg slams GOP congresswoman’s asinine climate change speech in just 5 words

Out Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg pithily responded to an embarrassing speech about climate change that Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) made on the House floor. “The farmers in my district recognize climate change as summer, winter, spring, and fall,” she said. “We would like the USDA [U.S. Department of Agriculture] to focus on policies that actually help producers and rural communities.” That was her full speech. Related: Lauren Boebert rages at Pete Buttigieg for caring about climate change but still traveling She called him a “hypocrite” for using government-owned planes to travel for work. Miller: The farmers in my district recognize climate change as summer, winter, spring, and fall pic.twitter.com/rytUJvE0Le— Acyn (@Acyn) September 27, 2023 Get the Daily Brief The news you care about, reported on by the people who care about you: Subscribe to our Newsletter “Are we really doing this?” Buttigieg responded incredulously. Are we really doing this? https://t.co/zATAJp7s6v— Secretary Pete Buttigieg (@SecretaryPete) September 27, 2023 Buttigieg heard a similar comment while testifying at a House Transportation & Infrastructure Hearing last week. Rep. Doug LaMalfa (R-CA) also compared climate change to seasons changing when he questioned Buttigieg. “What I can tell you is climate change is real, and we’ve got to do something about it,” Buttigieg said at the hearing. “Yeah, this one is called autumn, sir,” LaMalfa responded. Confused, Buttigieg asked, “I’m sorry?” LaMalfa repeated, “Yes, this one is called autumn right now, so yeah.” Buttigieg said, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t make out what you said.” LaMalfa said a third time, “This climate change right now is called autumn, yes.” Buttigieg responded, “Yeah, that’s the seasons changing which respectively is not the same as the climate changing.” Lmao @PeteButtigieg pic.twitter.com/15K0EvEV4e— chyea ok (@chyeaok) September 20, 2023 Climate change refers to long-term shifts in weather and atmospheric conditions, detected by “a wide array of measurements and observations over decades or hundreds of years” which “show a long-term warming trend caused by humans,” according to a fact-check by USA Today. Carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels has contributed to global warming and “sea ice loss, accelerated sea level rise and longer, more intense heat waves,” NASA says. It has also contributed to extreme weather events, drought, widespread wildfires, and other catastrophes. The USDA is concerned about climate change because it directly impacts farmers’ ability to produce food. “Climate change presents numerous challenges to sustaining and enhancing crop productivity, livestock health, and the economic vitality of rural communities,” the USDA’s Fourth National Climate Assessment says. “Yields from major U.S. crops are expected to decline as a consequence of increases in temperatures and possibly changes in water availability, soil erosion, and disease and pest outbreaks. Increases in temperatures during the growing season in the Midwest are projected to be the largest contributing factor to declines in the productivity of U.S. agriculture. Projected increases in extreme heat conditions are expected to lead to further heat stress for livestock, which can result in large economic losses for producers.” http://dlvr.it/SwjvFK

There are heroes and then there are Heroes. The people who really inspire us to a higher calling and purpose. Those who we look to and think “Gosh! I am lifted up by you, what you stand for and how you speak truth to power.How you move in the world and make it a better place and how you bring others along with you.” The roll of a leader is to create more leaders not more followers.” Pete Buttigieg is that person for me. To have met him and speak to him about light pollution and the new blue rich/white LED headlights and the harm they are causing. And he responded “ We are starting to look at color temperature “ I was beside myself with glee. My plan is to follow up and see if the position of “ Dark Sky Guy” is available in the Department of Transportation. In all honesty, meeting him made my year. I’ve been around celebrity a good portion of my life but with him I was all tongue tied and flummoxed. If my heart rate was a seismograph San Francisco just had a big rock’n roll. I wanted Pete to be our President and would back him if he ran again. He is dauntless and compassionate and that he goes on Fox and faces the most skeptical of commentators, all the while smiling, is a sign of his courage and fortitude and genuine kindness. He teaches me to rise above detractors and embrace them as I would my supporters. This is what higher consciousness is about and he just makes it so accessible and models it impeccably.
