It’s National Pet Week—a time to celebrate the pets who enrich our lives and to promote responsible pet care.

Warning: If flying on a U.S. commercial aircraft maintained by Chinese and Salvadoran nationals working for a private equity firm raises concerns for you, it’s best to avoid the linked commentary. Reader discretion is advised.
It’s unnerving to have one’s deeply held views on stocks ridiculed by the world’s greatest investor, but I remain steadfast in questioning most corporate stock repurchase programs.
Some thoughts on a New Jersey Chevrolet dealership that seemingly can’t tell a lie, GM facing another damning lawsuit, and why those who accept Ford’s ‘handshake deal with America’ would be wise to count their fingers afterward.
My contrarian view of three DOJ criminal prosecutions.
Some thoughts on the increasingly violent protesters seeking to destroy Tesla, and the meek environmentalists who refuse to speak up.
