WTF?
#Venezuela #oil proceeds are going into a private account in #Qatar that #US #Treasury cannot block. This can’t be legal.
Marco Rubio: "The oil proceeds are being deposited into an account that ultimately will become a US Treasury blocked account here in the US. We will say 'this is what this money can be spent on.' They will submit to us a budget request -- 'we want to use the money on these things.!'"

Looking into this I find myself shocked to be citing Fox Business, but they were interviewing a Republican who seriously gave the unvarnished & corrupt truth about the situation∶
Rep Thomas #Massie (R-KY) on Tuesday criticized the Trump admin for how it is using the #oil seized from #Venezuela earlier this month, saying #Trump cannot sell the oil for "his own piggy bank."

"Selling stolen #oil & putting billions of dollars in a bank in #Qatar to be spent without Congressional approval is not Constitutional," Massie wrote on X. "Only #Congress can appropriate money."

More from #MarcoRubio #Senate hearing on #Venezuela, when #RandPaul is the sane person in the conversation …
PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?
RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition
PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

https://www.npr.org/2026/01/28/nx-s1-5690365/rubio-senate-venezuela#RandPaul∶ What if a country indicts our president for violating a foreign law, should we extradite him or be okay if they get him by force?
#MarcoRubio∶ We're always going to act in our national interest
Paul∶ What I'm saying is our arguments are empty. It's a ruse. We do what we do because we have the force.

Sen. #JeanneShaheen (D-NH)∶ It's been reported that the #oil sold for $500 million & $300 million went to the Venezuelan government. What happened to the other $200 million?
#MarcoRubio∶ It's still sitting in the account is my understanding.
Shaheen∶ The account in #Qatar?
Rubio∶ Yes.

Sen. #TammyDuckworth (D-IL)∶ If it's true that we are not at #war with #Venezuela, will you advise the president to rescind his invocation of the wartime #AlienEnemiesAct?
#MarcoRubio∶ That was a mechanism to remove people from our country that present great danger
Duckworth∶ It's a wartime act. Are we currently at war?
Rubio∶ No.

Acquarello su carta 100% cotone
"Looking down at dawn"Ringrazio Anna per avermi dato generosamente la possibilità di utilizzare alcune foto come ispirazione. Una in particolare mi ha fatto subito scattare in testa un'idea, ancora da realizzare, idea che poi si è estesa alla reference da cui ho tratto questo acquarello. Nasce così questo tema: "Looking down", guardando giù.

Somebody at MIT had bought a device the size of a calculator that, for a subscription fee, got weather info via radio. Of course they put it on the MIT network, and so of course I scraped it over at Symbolics.
That turned into the "weather hack", which displayed temperature, wind speed, etc. in the wholine of the lispm screen.
And then I wrote the world's silliest expert system in Joshua to *predict* weather (Cambridge only, 15 mins into the future only). It used historical weather data that I'd stored in a Statice database (also on lispm). So it was an example of hooking an expert system up to a database, using some math code (least squares fits to temperature/barometric pressure over time, for example), and logical reasoning all in one application.
See starting at about 10:45 in this video:
