ACTIVISTS FUME AS BARRELS ROLL PAST ‘SAVE THE PLANET’ SIGNS
The news sent California Gov. Gavin Newsom, activist Jane Fonda, and their ilk into a frenzy. In mid-March, Donald Trump signed an executive order invoking the Defense Production Act, a 1950 Cold War-era law, to force the restart of a dormant offshore oil operation along the California coast.
Of course, the Golden State immediately sued — how dare we produce our own energy!
That litigation is ongoing, but in the meantime, the oil is officially pumping, and it’s coming out fast:
Sable Offshore officially commenced oil sales through the Santa Ynez Pipeline System Sunday, marking the first time the network has moved crude oil since a major spill idled operations over a decade ago…
The company announced oil began flowing on March 29, with the pipeline successfully filled from Las Flores Canyon to Pentland Station at a rate exceeding 50,000 barrels per day. That is roughly 66,000 full tanks of gas.
Once again, this proves that our reliance on foreign oil is a problem largely of our own making — or at least, the Democrats’ making — and we should be tapping our own resources and not relying on countries that are unstable or that hate us.

Chester Burton "Chet" Atkins, Mister Guitar (1924)June 20, 2026
Atkins got his first guitar by making a trade with his brother, and it was arguably the best deal he ever made. Although he struggled with shyness and suffered from severe asthma—he had to sleep sitting up and often fell asleep still holding his guitar—he became an accomplished guitarist and went on to release several hit records, develop a signature line of guitars, and help create country music's "Nashville sound." What did "Mr. Guitar," as he came to be known, trade to get that first guitar?

West Virginia DayJune 20, 2026
West Virginia Day is a state holiday in West Virginia to celebrate its joining the Union in 1863 as the 35th state. The creation of the state was a result of the Civil War. The settlers of western Virginia defied the state's vote to secede from the Union, and on June 20 West Virginia formally entered the Union as an anti-slave state. The day is marked with ceremonies at the state capitol in Charleston and at the West Virginia Independence Hall in Wheeling. It was there that the conventions were held to declare West Virginia's independence from Virginia.

Black TeaJune 20, 2026
Excluding water, tea is the most widely consumed drink on the planet, drunk either hot or cold by half the world's population. The vast majority of tea sold in the West is black tea, made from fermented leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. Generally stronger in flavor and more caffeinated than the green and oolong varieties, black tea retains its flavor for several years and has long been an article of trade, serving as a form of currency into the 19th century in what countries?
