Baker writes: "H. Ross Perot, an eccentric Dallas billionaire whose two independent runs for president in the 1990s tapped into voters' frustration with the major political parties and foreshadowed the rise of the tea party two decades later, died July 9 at his home in Dallas. He was 89."

Alex Acosta Desperately Tries to Cover for Letting Epstein Off the Hook
Rafi Schwartz, Splinter
Schwartz writes: "Three days after billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein was charged by federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York with sex trafficking young girls in the mid-2000s, Labor Secretary Alex Acosta - the former federal prosecutor who orchestrated Epstein's ridiculously lax non-prosecution agreement the last time he was arrested - is scrambling to cover his ass." 

Calls for Acosta to be removed from President Donald Trump’s administration have only grown since Epstein’s arrest. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a former federal prosecutor and presidential candidate, has publicly called for Acosta to step down from his role as Labor Secretary, as has Sen. Elizabeth Warren. On the Senate floor on Tuesday, Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer demanded Acosta resign or be fired.

Benjamin Neimark, Oliver Belcher and Patrick Bigger, YES! Magazine
Excerpt: "The U.S. military's carbon bootprint is enormous. Like corporate supply chains, it relies upon an extensive global network of container ships, trucks, and cargo planes to supply its operations with everything from bombs to humanitarian aid and hydrocarbon fuels."
