Notably: I have not heard of any lawmakers wanting to put up a statue celebrating Andrew Lih or Richard Knipel or name a free-speech contest after them. Chances are you haven’t heard of them anymore than you had of Charlie Kirk before he was assassinated. Lih and Knipel had the misfortune of averting a massacre, and did so not at a political event, let alone a right-wing fiesta of bile, but at a Wikipedia conference for Wikipedia editors, with some 100 people in attendance. The heroism was barely reported: “The man, draped in a multicolored flag, walked onto the stage and stood next to Maryana Iskander, the chief of the nonprofit group that runs Wikipedia, interrupting her speech. He announced that he was going to kill himself. He held a gun near his head and pointed it toward the ceiling. The audience of well over a hundred people panicked.” The gunman also pointed the gun at the audience in a sweeping motion. Knipel, a Wikipedia contriobutor who has no law enforcement background, came up behind him and grabbed him as Lih, a “Wikipedian on the trust and safety team,” charged him as well. They saved the day. No guns of their own, no brawn. Just wikis. “In seconds, the potential scene of bloodshed at WikiConference North America at Civic Hall in Union Square had been averted, a life may have been saved, and two volunteer editors of an online encyclopedia had become unlikely heroes,” the Times reported. “Other Wikipedia editors responded to Mr. Knipel’s courageous act by awarding him several “Barnstars,” the site’s official tokens of appreciation. “You’ve got some guts man!” wrote a user who awarded him a Barnstar of Diligence. Mr. Knipel did not respond to a request for comment.” That’s it. “When Grief Wanted a Hero, Truth Didn’t Get in the Way,” the same Times headlined a story in 2000 about a pretend-savior, Ben Strong, who had made himself a hero by peddling the story that he had convinced the Paducah school shooter in 1997 to drop his gun. He had not. “The Ben Strong story shows how chaos and panic can distort the accounts that witnesses give of the rampage killings that periodically horrify the country. It may show, too, how the stories of the killings are often shaped by the powerful desire of reporters and everyone else involved to find some good news, even signs of heroism, in horrible, inexplicable events,” William Glaberson wrote at the time. It also points to the contrast of motives in the aftermath of shootings–how the humble and unsung heroes of Wikipedia wanted to remain unsung, how the blaring and chest-thumping mercenaries of the airwaves in the aftermath of the Kirk assassination succeeded in turning the killing into their own domestic Gulf of Tonkin resolution, soaked in lies and distortions. Excuse me while I go to donate a few dollars to Wikipedia.

Modern biblical scholars have established that the Bible is a wiki. It was compiled over half a millennium from writers with different styles, dialects, character names, and conceptions of God, and it was subjected to haphazard editing that left it with many contradictions, duplications, and non sequiturs.

Im glad to be TRUMP supporter, Im happy he doing a great job! Gas is under $3.00, Food costs have come down, interest rates are falling, & the economy is booming. Theres peace in the Middle East, And all of Europe embrasses TRUMP as a great statesmen! Cities plagued by violence, are now peacefull again….American healthcare, is not being ripped off anymore since TRUMP stopped paying illegals healthcare. The border is closed, & deportations are booming. Seems every things going TRUMPS way. As a bussinessman, TRUMP has made a mockery of a 50 year politition, who never ever had a real job, & contiues to lie everyday! It brings me joy to see the democrates falling apart by the seems. With no leader in site, no plans for the future, what is to become of the Jackass party? I love to see them go after TRUMP…. Rallys full of old fools that are being paid, or just plain brainwashed. We are on the cusp of a great American revival! America 1st, now & forever. May god bless the democratic party, in hope they see the light. May they come togeather too stop socialism, communism, & Islam. Great days are ahead, my friends, Great days indeed.

Yes, it’s his, and his alone in his mind. I’ve never seen a person with such selfish priority.
On ego and id:
“The id is the part of the personality that contains our basic instincts and desires, seeking immediate gratification without considering reality or morality. The ego, on the other hand, is the rational part that mediates between the id’s impulses and the demands of reality, helping to make practical decisions.” – Simple Psychology.
Well, something’s missing.

I freely concede that this comment is not serious. It isn’t even important in any real sense. But on Wednesday, NASCAR announced that starting in 2027 the running of the Daytona 500 will be moved back one week, off its traditional President’s Day running. One commenter of the decision claimed that this is evidence that the NFL is going to expand to an 18-game season in 2027.
Make of this what you will, but if the NFL expands to an 18-game season in 2027, some of you can say that you read this first on FlaglerLive.
Thank you, Mr. Tristam, for all your hard work in keeping FlaglerLive operating when so many news outlets, one by one, large and small, continue to fail.
Ray W. says
This comment, at least to me, is far more interesting and perhaps far more important than my NASCAR/NFL comment.
I have no idea how many FlaglerLive readers recall President Trump’s statement about trade negotiations with Japan that involved promises of billions of dollars of investment by Japanese companies in American projects that would bring jobs and economic production to the American economy.
Some time ago, apparently, JERA, a major Japanese utility company, announced that, as part of the Japanese government’s agreement to invest more money in America, it planned to invest $7 billion.
For about a month now there has been a smattering of reports about a Japanese company investing in American natural gas assets.
Earlier today, as reported by a news outlet called Oil Price US, a site that claims a subscriber base of 400,000, JERA, announced both that it was paying two American natural gas companies $1.5 billion for their shale natural gas assets in the Haynesville Basin, in an effort to boost its “exposure to U.S. gas” and that it was considering an undisclosed investment in an Alaska-based LNG project.
The Alaska LNG project, if built, will have the capacity to produce 20 million tons of LNG each year. Some of the extracted natural gas will go to Alaskan consumers, but mot of the extracted natural gas will be sent 800 miles by pipeline to a liquefaction plant, from which the LNG will be loaded onto LNG tankers to be sent anywhere in the world.
Hurdles to the Alaska project include additional costs that cold weather locations bring to any natural gas project and the as-yet-undetermined scale of additional natural gas pipelines that will need to be built to connect any new extraction site to the already existing Alaskan pipeline from Alaska’s north shore to the Kenai Peninsula in southern Alaska.
I have repeatedly commented to the FlaglerLive site that prior to the opening of the Cheneire Energy liquefaction plant in Louisiana in 2014, there had been only one operating liquefaction plant in America that exported American LNG, and that planted was located on the Kenai Peninsula. That plant shut down in 2011 after 40 years of exporting Alaskan LNG.
According to JERA’s press release, the Haynesville Basin assets already produce 500 million cubic feet of natural gas each day. There are 200 undeveloped locations within the field that are subject to the purchase. The deal includes a clause that JERA can increase output of natural gas from the basin to 1 billion cubic feet per day. Whether JERA buying the gas field will provide savings sufficient to make its investment profitable remains to be seen.
Make of this what you will.
Me?
From my thinking, the $1.5 million purchase price for already productive natural gas wells in the Haynesville Basin makes sense. Controlling the cost of producing natural gas will likely prove profitable.
Despite the EIA’s projection that too many LNG plants are already under construction all over the world, there is also no dispute about natural gas demand rising all over the world. The EIA knows about the rise in natural gas demand; it just projects a greater rise in worldwide LNG export capacity, which the EIA projects could damage the profitability of any newly constructed LNG export plant, regardless of where in the world it is built.
This bears reminding.
In 2014, prior to the opening of Cheneire Energy’s Louisiana LNG plant, the US exported zero of its domestic sources of natural gas. Since 2014, some 10 LNG export plants have opened, from Texas to Maryland. Many more are past the permitting phase and under construction. In 11 or so years, America now leads the world in LNG exports. Just over six of those years saw Democratic administration. Just under five of those years saw Republican administration. Since application for permitting to opening takes as much as seven years, that means that permitting and construction for all of these plants has proceeded under both Republican and Democratic administrations. Yes, the Biden administration in 2024 paused the permitting process for a proposed Philadelphia LNG plant to export LNG to Europe and another proposed plant expansion to export LNG to Mexico, but the pause was for the applicants to submit more complete applications to satisfy federal regulations. Once the updated information was supplied, the underlying requirements for the permits were met, and a report was issued by December 2024 approving the issuance of the permits and the Trump administration then approved the permits in January 2025.
I type all of this because one of the most common lies issued by the professional lying class that sits atop one of our two political parties is that Democratic administrations are stopping fossil fuel energy. The Democratic administrations are not stopping fossil fuel energy; they are regulating it.
The law as defined by Congress and interpreted by the executive requires that any energy company that meets the statutory and regulatory requirements for a permit gets the permit. Yes, regulatory hurdles might make a project more expensive, but the permit will issue if it meets the law. This is how rule of law works. An administrative can oppose fossil fuel energy and still issue every permit that any energy company seeks.
This applies to pipelines, too. The northern leg of the XL pipeline, as planned in its permit application process, crosses the Nebraska Sand Hills that sit atop the Oglalla Aquifer, the main drinking and irrigation source of water for several states. The project has been a near-constant source of lies by our professional lying class.
The tar sands crude oil that comes out of Alberta that will be transported through the pipeline comes out of the ground with what has been described in industry journals as the consistency of peanut butter. This type of oil must be thinned by additives before it can be pumped through pipelines or into rail tank cars.
The additive most commonly used to thin this type of oil is highly toxic and highly carcinogenic. It is also so acidic that it eats through normal steel pipe and normal rail tank car steel walls. Special steel pipe and special steel rail tank cars must be used to transport the additive thinned crude oil. The process is more expensive, compared to the cost of shipping normal crude oil.
Will all oil producer’s tell the truth about their oil, when one type of crude oil transport is cheaper than the additive-thinned crude oil? Do they file forms claiming that their oil is normal oil to save money, when in reality their oil contains the toxic and cancerous and acidic additive?
In 2013, a train’s electric brakes failed while stopped on a hill above the town of Lac-Megantic, Canada. The engineer had gone to a motel during the planned stop, thinking the brake’s were working properly. A fire broke out in a generator that powered the electric brakes. The unattended train derailed on a turn because it rolled down the hill too fast coming into the town. Multiple rail tank cars filled with crude oil ruptured, setting off a huge fire that killed 47 people. Years ago, I read the civil complaint filed by the families of the victims. It was alleged that crude oil mixed with the thinning additive had weakened the normal steel walls of the tank cars. The tank cars were designed to be strong enough to not rupture in that type of derailment; they should not have ruptured. The company that had pumped the crude oil into the tank cars had certified that no thinning additive was present in the oil, obtaining a cheaper transport price. Crude oil samples collected from the soil revealed the presence of the thinning additive.
The case was settled before trial, so no factual finding by a jury of whether the thinning additive was in the crude oil was determined.
I write all this because should the northern leg of the XL pipeline be built, any pipe rupture in the Nebraska Sand Hills section of the pipeline would spill the highly toxic and highly carcinogenic thinning additive onto sand, a very porous type of soil. If enough of the thinning additive were to sink into the sand and later make its way into the Oglalla Aquifer, every water source drawn from it could become contaminated.
The Obama administration proposed to the company that sought permits to build the northern leg of the XL pipeline that it move the pipeline around the Nebraska Sand Hills section instead of through it, a detour that would have lengthened the pipeline by 75 miles. The company refused. The political battle has been on ever since.
The Obama administration was the one that issued permits for most of today’s operating LNG plants because the applicants met the legal requirements for the permits. The Trump administration issued permits, too. So, too, did the Biden administration. The Trump administration recently approved a permit for an expansion to an already operating LNG plant.
Can it be argued that today’s professional lying class that sits atop one of our two parties repeated claims that “No Kings” protesters must be Antifa and terrorists and America haters, when in reality they are not Antifa and not terrorists and not America haters? Can it be argued that they are simply Trump opposers?
Can it be argued that members of that professional lying class have for years been twisting the reasons why the northern leg of the XL pipeline wasn’t built?
My position is that protesters who turned out to protest at the “No Kings” events can hate what they think Trump is trying to do and love America at the same time.
Can it be argued that Democrats can oppose fossil fuel energy and still issue permits to allow those sources of energy to expand, provided the pipeline doesn’t cross directly over the Nebraska Sand Hills?
As for me, I oppose anyone who asks when it will be time to begin beheading Democrats. That doesn’t make me a liberal. I take the position that there exists a moral imperative to oppose anyone who peddles such reckless hate, but that doesn’t prove that I oppose America.
For that matter, since I have actually taken the time to study the Conservative Tradition, dating from the Glorious Revolution in England, I have come to realize that I am more of a true conservative than the majority of FlaglerLive commenters who themselves claim to be conservative.
Who knew way back when that the Dixiecrat wing of the Democratic party would morph into the mainstream of today’s Republican party?
Who knew that several state level Republican leaders would denounce Young Republican leadership that openly engaged in racist, antisemitic and homophobic social media messages, with the state leaders saying that those many Young Republicans were not a part of the Republican party?
Who knew that yesterday’s true conservatives, in some political circles, would be forced to yield their party influence to today’s Young Republican reactionaries?
Ray W. says
As he so often does, Dennis C. Rathsam speaks of the Democratic party as being socialist, among other things.
I agree, in small part, because once, and only once, the Obama administration, tasked with allocating TARP funds to at-risk companies. chose to allocate roughly $49.5 billion of the $770 billion of the total TARP money to General Motors. In exchange, the federal government took a 60.8% share in the company and put a number of government officials on the Board of Directors. By 2013, the Obama administration had sold the last of its GM shares. The government recovered over $39 billion of the original $49.5 billion, but that is not the point. The point is that the government engaged in an act of socialism.
One definition of socialism is that the government owns the means of production, no matter how small that share of ownership is.
And when President Nixon issued his administrative order freezing wages and prices in 1971, that was when we came the closest we have ever come to communism.
One definition of communism is the the government controls the means of production and distribution, along with the power of setting prices for goods and services and setting wages.
If these definitions for socialism and communism are accurate, if not perfectly so, what should Dennis C. Rathsam say about the Trump administration taking $8.9 billion in remaining CHIPS Act money and using it to buy a 10% ownership interest in Intel? And what should Dennis C. Rathsam say about the Trump administration interfering in the free market by threatening a proposed purchase U.S. Steel by Nippon Steel unless the U.S. received a “golden share” in the new company, involving veto power over plant closures, production levels, investments, and pricing levels. And what should Dennis C. Rathsam say about the Pentagon becoming the largest shareholder in MP Materials, the nation’s only operating at scale rare earths mine. The Pentagon, when purchasing its shareholder interest, insisted on gaining the power to set a price floor for the company’s products, a floor that is nearly twice the price of the current market rate. And what should Dennis C. Rathsam say about Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announcing that the government intends to “‘set price floors’ and ‘forward buy’ commodities ‘across a range of industries’ to encourage more investments in U.S. production.”
All of these things recently happened, according to a research fellow at George Washington University’s Mercatus Center, who wrote an editorial column for the L.A. Times.
In her column, the author argues that when the government sets prices, owns companies and dictates production it can no longer argue that it loves either capitalism or free enterprise.
She also argues that “[t]he U.S. became prosperous because the government did not own or direct industry. Entrepreneurs built the modern economy precisely because they were free to invest, trade and fail when something doesn’t offer enough to consumers. Interventionist policy betrays that legacy.”
She also argues that “guaranteeing an unfair advantage over competitors by setting a minimum price reduces American companies’ long-run incentives to innovate and produce a better output.”
She writes that when government sets a minimum price, “buyers purchase less, sellers produce less, surpluses pile up and waste follows.”
At one time, she says, Republicans understood these things, i.e., that socialism begins with good intentions and ends with bureaucratic command, a position with which she agrees.
So when House Speaker Johnson claimed last Friday that “No Kings” protesters hated capitalism and free enterprise, she asserts that he should have looked at the White House first.
Make of this what you will.
Me?
When the “No Kings” rallies happened, the vast majority of attendees did not gather because they hated America; they gathered because they hated kings. It is possible for someone to hate a small thing, such as a king, and love a much bigger and different thing, such as a nation. Trump is not America. He is much less than that.
Ray W. says
In the first comment in this thread, Dennis C. Rathsam types that local gas prices are under $3.00 per gallon, and he is right.
I have from time to time been keeping FlaglerLive readers apprised of national average gasoline prices ever since the day President Trump took office for the second time.
I have been doing this because not only did President Trump repeatedly promise during his 2024 campaign that he would bring energy prices down by 50% within 12 months of his taking office in his second administration, he also promised to bring gasoline prices down to under $2 per gallon at the pump.
So I looked up on the AAA site today’s national average price for a gallon of regular-grade gasoline: $3.068 per gallon at the pump.
I went back to January 20th on the same AAA site: $3.109 per gallon at the pump.
It’s been more than nine months since Trump took office. The average price of gasoline at the pump is down 4.1 cents per gallon. President Trump has less than three months to bring national average gasoline prices down to under $2 per gallon and he has less than three months to bring our energy prices down by 50%.
Dennis C. Rathsam thanks President Trump for this price drop. But the U.S. is not producing more crude oil per day on average. OPEC+ is the entity that is pumping more oil and a lot more oil. Guyana is pumping more oil. Brazil is pumping more oil. Kazakhstan is pumping more oil. Dennis C. Rathsam should be thanking OPEC+ for the lower prices.
As for electricity prices, they are rising all over the country. According to the FRED, a source provided by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the national average price for a kilowatt-hour of electricity in January 2025 was 0.179 cents. In September, the latest date that prices are available, the national average price for a kilowatt-hour of electricity was 0.188 cents. That’s not down, it’s up. It’s certainly not down by 50%. FP&L is in the process of gaining regulatory approval to raise our electricity rates, not lower them.
As for natural gas prices, they are highest in winter months when demand to provide home heating is at its highest. Demand for natural gas is at its lowest from the spring to the fall.
In January 2025, the average price for Henry Hub natural gas was $4.13 per million BTUs. By April, the price was down to $3.42. In August, the price was down to $2.91. In 2024, the lowest monthly average price was $1.49 per million BTUs, in March. In August 2024, the price was $1.99. Year-over-year, every single month this year has been more expensive when compared to the same month of the previous year.
Despite the volatility of natural gas prices, I remain unconvinced that President Trump has brought down the monthly average price for natural gas, when its price was lower last year.
The only energy prices that are consistently dropping are those for electricity generated from solar panels and by wind farms and President Trump has declared these forms of energy a “scam” and he has cut investments designed to bring cheaper electricity into the grid. In exchange for his opposing cheaper electricity, President Trump has been directing federal tax dollars towards supporting the price of coal, the most expensive form of the many different forms of producing electricity.
Can it be argued that a government that tries to support the most expensive means of generating electricity at the expense to the consumer of cheaper electricity from solar and wind could be called socialist or worst?
Ray W. says
Poor Dennis C. Rathsam. Just about everything he claimed in the comment at the top of this thread has turned out to be false.
This from Newsweek: Wholesale turkey prices will be up considerably by Thanksgiving.
Here’s how the story starts:
“Wholesale turkey prices are soaring this year, as bird flu outbreaks and resulting supply shortages threaten to raise the price of Americans’ Thanksgiving meals.”
Last year, the average wholesale price over the full year of a frozen whole hen turkey was 93.7 cents per pound. The Department of Agriculture’s September outlook for the year has the average price per pound is expected to be 131.5 cents per pound, and increase of 40% over last year’s average price. And it get worse. Project frozen whole hen turkeys in the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2025 will be 157 cents per pound and 155 cents per pound, respectively.
The USDA places most of the cause for higher frozen turkey prices on new outbreaks of the Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, a “severe” form of bird flu first detected in the spring of 2022; it has since been determined that the main carriers of the flu are wild birds.
Again, FlaglerLive readers, American bird farmers are directly in the path of wild bird migrations that are in process right now.
As for overall grocery prices, according to CNN, the latest Labor Department year-over-year price comparison has grocery prices up 2.7% over September 2024, not “way down” as President Trump recently claimed.
The CNN reporter wrote that Trump campaigned for office, in part, on a claim that he would bring grocery prices down. That has yet to happen.
This past Tuesday he claimed that grocery prices were “way down.” They weren’t down at all, they were up.
On October 16th, he said grocery prices were “down.” They weren’t. They were up.
On October 14th, he said:
“Now, as you know, groceries are down.” They weren’t. They were up.
On October 10th, he said:
“We’ve gotten prices way down for groceries.” They weren’t. They were up.
On September 23rd, he told U.N. leaders during an address that:
“Under my leadership … grocery prices are down.” They weren’t. They were up.
Make of this what you will.

Don’t bother to wake maga up, they are in the middle of a dream. A wet one.
Heath insurance is expected to double. Maga will be happy to blame it on Obama, though he hasn’t been in office in nearly a decade. “I have a concept of a plan” is about to screw them, and the rest of us, and maga will gleefully blame Democrats.
The grift maga accepts is beyond any attempt of providing them with logic. That would be fine if they weren’t taking us down the tubes with them.
