*Legendary activist Noam Chomsky on Biden’s presidency and the modern GOP*
When it comes to climate change, there is always more to be done. 
President Biden has signed an array of executive orders combating the 
crisis, but the modern GOP’s stance makes it difficult to get long-term 
legislation passed. Legendary political activist Noam Chomsky joins 
NBC’s Mehdi Hasan to discuss the threat this position will have on the 
future of our environment.

Just Have a Think
Wind turbines are everywhere nowadays, and they do a great job of 
harnessing all that free energy. But as a restless species constantly on 
the move, we humans also cause many other air flows through our 
activities. And most of it just goes to waste. What if we could scoop 
that air up and do something useful with it?

[Wildfires]
*What the megadrought in the West means for wildfire season*
Get your air filter ready — wildfire season is likely to start early 
this year.
By Lili Pikelili - Apr 15, 2021

The warning signs are written in the parched landscape from New Mexico 
to California. This time last year, 27 percent of the West was in 
drought — now that has risen to 76 percent, turning forests into 
matchsticks.

With the pandemic dominating headlines, the severe drought has gotten 
little attention. “This one threatens to catch people by surprise who 
are exhausted by the events of the past year,” said Daniel Swain, a 
climate scientist at the University of California Los Angeles...
- -
It’s time to get your air filter out and keep those masks handy...
- -
The Fire Center projects that the Southwest will see above-average fire 
potential through June until the monsoon (hopefully) arrives. But the 
region might still get relief from summer monsoon rains, whereas the 
coming months tend to be dry in central and northern California.

Starting in June, they project that parts of the Pacific Northwest will 
see heightened fire risk and then the fire season will pick up in 
California in July...
- -
However, Swain also cautioned that the number of acres burned shouldn’t 
be the sole criterion for how severe a fire season is. Western states 
actually have a major backlog of land that needs to be burned, due to 
the history of limiting the use of fire to manage forests (“prescribed 
burning”) — an approach that American Indians have historically practiced.

“The goal is not to vanquish fire from the landscape. The goal really 
should be to decouple wildfire from catastrophe,” he said. Therefore, he 
suggests we judge our management of fires by their impact on structures 
and human health, rather than just acres burned.
*
**We must burn the West to save it*
Just two weeks ago, California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced a deal to 
allocate $536 million to help the state manage wildfires by staffing up 
fire crews, thinning forests, and hardening homes to withstand fires. 
Newsom has proposed a total of $1 billion in spending on fire management 
this year.

“This is a good start, but this is only Year One,” Michael Wara, the 
director of the climate and energy policy program at Stanford’s Woods 
Institute for the Environment, told the Los Angeles Times. “We need 
sustained funding at this scale and maybe even larger for a decade.”

With the fire season rapidly approaching, residents of Western states 
can get ahead of the smoke by dusting off their air filters, stocking up 
on N95 respirator masks, and consulting this preparation checklist from 
the Environmental Protection Agency. In the meantime, it’s a good time 
to get outside before the fire season truly descends upon us again...

*Private Security Firm Accused of Working Illegally to Protect Oil and 
Gas Pipelines in Five States*
While pipeline protesters risk harsh new penalties enacted in various 
states, security companies hired to police fossil fuel projects are 
operating with little oversight.
Karen Savageon - Apr 16, 2021
Leighton Security Services, a private security company accused of 
working without a license during construction of the controversial 
Dakota Access pipeline, is facing similar allegations in Virginia.

The complaint against Leighton is one of two recently filed against 
private companies providing security for the Mountain Valley pipeline, a 
planned 300-mile pipeline that would carry fracked gas from northwestern 
West Virginia, through pristine mountain streams and Appalachian 
forests, to the Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Company’s (Transco) 
compressor station in southern Virginia.

The complaints were filed anonymously in January with the state’s 
Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) and shared with DeSmog. 
Virginia officials have confirmed to DeSmog that investigations are ongoing.

According to one complaint, Leighton has subcontracted MVP security work 
to another unlicensed firm, The North Group, Inc., as well as to two 
unlicensed individuals. A second complaint seeks to hold The North Group 
directly responsible for operating without a license.

Leighton owner James Kevin Mayberry denied the allegations to DeSmog, 
but acknowledged that the company was hired to provide security by 
Precision Pipeline, a business subcontracted by MVP to build the 
pipeline, and in turn subcontracted the work to The North Group.

“In most cases, a security license is required to subcontract with 
another company,” Leon D. Baker, Jr., the director of Virginia’s 
licensing agency, said in email. “If they do, the subcontractor must 
also be licensed by DCJS.”

The North Group co-owner Steven Hernandez has acknowledged to DeSmog 
that TNG and Leighton “have a relationship minimally.” But he denies 
that TNG has worked unlicensed in Virginia. “The North Group uses 
licensed subcontract vendors and performs work within accordance with 
all state and federal regulations,” said Hernandez, who declined to name 
the subcontractors used by TNG.

A recent posting to the online job board Indeed.com appears to be from 
The North Group. The opening is for an unarmed protection agent in 
Roanoke, Virginia. Jobs in Michigan and Minnesota, where TNG is licensed 
to provide security services, are also listed. Hernandez did not respond 
to questions regarding the postings.
The Mountain Valley pipeline has drawn fierce opposition from landowners 
and environmental activists in both West Virginia and Virginia, where 
police recently forcibly extracted and arrested two protesters from a 
tree sit after they blocked construction for two and a half years.

Emily Satterwhite, a vocal pipeline opponent who says she has drawn the 
attention of private security agents at rallies and protests against the 
pipeline, finds the allegations against Leighton and TNG alarming. “To 
know that there are people like that who feel like they’re operating — 
and are operating — under the radar, it’s infuriating, but it’s also 
frightening,” she said.

Satterwhite, an associate professor of Appalachian studies and popular 
culture at Virginia Tech, says men in unmarked white trucks have used 
“intimidation tactics” by following her and other pipeline opponents 
around town at all hours.

Satterwhite doesn’t know who the men are. But the situation gives her 
pause. “If we don’t even know who they are and who they’re working for, 
and they have no licensing concerns, what might they do?” she said. “If 
I had a complaint about my treatment, where would I go and who would 
respond?”
*Little Accountability for Pipeline Security Firms, New Crackdowns for 
Protesters*
The Virginia allegations against Leighton highlight how inconsistently 
states regulate and monitor private security firms that cater to the 
fossil fuel industry. Potential penalties are seldom hefty enough to 
deter companies that have been caught violating licensing regulations in 
one state from skirting licensing requirements in another. Many 
substantiated complaints are never prosecuted by state authorities.

“Presently, there is no universal manner in which security companies and 
their individual security practitioners are handled from state to 
state,” said Fabian Blache III, the director of Louisiana’s private 
security licensing board, and president of the International Association 
of Security and Investigative Regulators (IASIR). “When you have the 
ones that just blatantly work without a license and you’re constantly 
chasing them around from place to place to place, it’s very frustrating.”
While some states require both the firm and its individual employees to 
be licensed, others limit the requirement to the company only. A handful 
allow any private security firm with a general business license to 
operate with no further oversight. The lack of consistency between 
states can be confusing to firms, said Blache, but he contended that 
most companies do their best to adhere to the law.

The penalties for operating without a license vary from state to state, 
but tend to be relatively light. While it’s a felony in Michigan, 
punishable by up to four years in prison, fines of up to $1,000, or 
both, Virginia considers it a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in 
prison, a fine of up to $2,500, or both. Licensing violations are also 
misdemeanors in North Dakota,  punishable by up to 30 days in prison, a 
fine of up to $1,500, or both.

While state licensing rules for private security companies seem to have 
changed little in the years since the violent attacks by police and 
private security on Dakota Access pipeline opponents in 2016-17, 
multiple states have decided to criminalize anti-pipeline protests. At 
least 20 states have passed or introduced harsh new laws that make it a 
felony to protest at pipeline construction sites and other critical 
infrastructure. Individuals found guilty face felony convictions, long 
prison sentences, and fines running into the thousands of dollars. 
Critics of these laws, which have often been based on model legislation 
developed by the fossil fuel-friendly American Legislative Exchange 
Council, say they infringe on the First Amendment right to protest.
Blache believes that the key to forcing companies to comply with 
licensing laws is to ensure there are criminal penalties for offenders, 
and to empower state regulatory agencies to conduct active enforcement. 
“If you have criminal penalties in your statute, and your individual 
inspectors have the authority to arrest, it’s a game-changer,” he said, 
“because you can now show up through the inspection, determine [a 
company’s] unlicensed, and cuff them and take them.”

The information that private security firms file with state regulators 
is not regularly shared across states. While some states have easily 
searchable databases, others do not, making it difficult for licensing 
agencies in other states or the public to research a company’s history. 
Regulators considering license applications are often forced to conduct 
time — and resource — intensive investigations, piecing together a 
company’s history one state at a time.

Firms trying to shirk a dubious history sometimes change names, owners, 
or registered agents.

“If a regulator gets an application from somebody, you have to really 
work it backwards,” Blache said. “You have to start with the individual 
and do your research on the person … you’ve got to scrub social media, 
Linked In, Facebook, Instagram, all these different tools that are out 
there to find the connectivity points between the individuals in the 
previous companies.”
*
**Leighton Licensing Questions Span Five States*
Leighton, which is based in Texas, has also been accused of operating 
without a license in North Dakota, Michigan, Iowa, and Ohio.

It was a Leighton employee who pointed an AR-15 rifle at Indigenous 
water protectors blocking construction of the Dakota Access pipeline in 
2016. The scene, captured on a widely circulated video, was one of 
hundreds of brutal assaults that militarized private security forces 
used against the activists and their supporters.

In the wake of those protests, North Dakota licensing regulators 
investigated and filed separate administrative complaints against 
Leighton and another private security firm named TigerSwan for operating 
without state licenses. Although Leighton never admitted to any 
wrongdoing, in 2019 the firm agreed to pay the state $43,500 in 
administrative fees and costs. In exchange, the state agreed to drop the 
complaint. The agreement stipulates that if Leighton applies in the 
future for a private security license in North Dakota, the board can 
consider “all available information, including actions taken as part of 
the Dakota Access Pipeline construction and protests as part of its 
licensure determination.”

In Iowa, Leighton subcontracted with Precision Pipeline to provide 
“armed security by mobile, roving patrols,” despite not being licensed 
in the state, according to internal situation reports compiled by 
TigerSwan. Leighton was “basically coordinating with multiple law 
enforcement agencies to provide off-duty law enforcement personnel 
through the various departments,” stated one of the reports.

Iowa regulators confirmed to DeSmog that Leighton is not licensed to 
provide security in that state.

“Private security guards are used by a lot — by far the majority — of 
the critical infrastructure in this country,” said Laurel Rudd, 
executive director of IASIR, the association of state regulators. “Do 
you really not want to know the background of the person who you’re 
hiring, whether it be criminal background or whether it be terrorist 
affiliation?”

*Michigan: A Lesson in Bureaucracy*
Sometimes it takes doggedly persistent citizens to force states to 
investigate.

In 2017, Michigan resident John Machowicz filed a complaint against 
Leighton with state regulators, alleging that the company was providing 
security services for the Rover pipeline project. Now completed, the 
pipeline carries fracked gas more than 700 miles through West Virginia, 
Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan.

“There have been several times when a security guard has gotten out of 
the car and approached us about our legal right to document the pipeline 
project,” Machowicz, a pipeline opponent, told state officials at the 
time. “We are concerned that Leighton Security Services will get more 
aggressive like the security firm Tiger Swan from the Dakota Access 
pipeline.”

Leighton denied it was doing the work itself and told investigators it 
had subcontracted with Professional Solutions Group (PSG) to provide 
security personnel. In 2020 PSG merged with The North Group, the company 
named with Leighton in the Virginia complaints. Both PSG and TNG are 
licensed to provide security services in Michigan.

Initially, the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs 
(LARA) found the complaintsunsubstantiated 
<https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/20616341-mi-investigation_76-77>, 
because the state does not require firms that subcontract work to be 
licensed.
Machowicz was undeterred. He next sent regulators photographs showing 
Rover pipeline security personnel with “Leighton Security” emblazoned on 
their vests, along with other information that he said proved Leighton 
didn’t just subcontract, but directly employed individuals to provide 
private security.
Machowicz also sent LARA troubling body camera footage, obtained through 
a public records request. Inone recording 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNFBTSg0SrM>, two security men at a 
Rover pipeline site in 2017 told a county sheriff’s deputy that they 
worked for private companies, naming PSG and Leighton. “My boss is a 
state trooper in Illinois,” the Leighton employee added, referring to 
Gary Washburn, a full-timelieutenant

Secretary of State Police

was also employed by Leighton as anoperations manager 
<https://napipelines.com/pipeline-protectors-physical-security-a-growing-necessity-for-jobsites/>.
Another showed <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GawlH8uWQbM>a sheriff’s 
deputy responding to a call from a local resident in Washtenaw County, 
Michigan, about a suspicious vehicle parked for hours in front of their 
house. The man inside the vehicle identified himself as “part of the 
Rover pipeline, with Leighton Security.” Such situations were not 
uncommon at the time, Machowicz told LARA. “Residents commonly found 
themselves scared away from public spaces by security personnel” and 
treated like criminals,” even though they “limited their activities to 
peaceful documentation.”

In 2019, state regulators re-opened their investigation and this time 
substantiated the allegations. But instead of justice, Machowicz says, 
he’s gotten a lesson in bureaucracy.

Under Michigan law, providing private security service while unlicensed 
is a felony punishable by up to four years in prison, fines of up to 
$1,000, or both. But like agencies in many states, LARA isn’t authorized 
to pursue criminal charges. So state officials handed the Leighton case 
off to officials in Washtenaw and Livingston counties, where the work 
had occurred.

The prosecutor in Livingston County — where the sheriff’s office was on 
Leighton’s payroll — shipped the case back to the state licensing 
agency, insisting that LARA’s investigation was incomplete and provided 
insufficient evidence that a crime had been committed. In Washtenaw 
County, the prosecutors’ office told LARA it didn’t have the personnel 
to investigate and suggested the agency forward the case to the 
sheriff’s office.

A detective with the Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office told Machowicz in 
late 2019 that it was “not in a position to investigate this matter 
appropriately.” He suggested that Machowicz ask the state attorney 
general’s office or state police to step in.

A spokesperson with the Michigan attorney general’s office confirmed 
that it is investigating Leighton’s operations in the state, but could 
not provide further information because the matter is ongoing.

In the process of defending itself against the Michigan allegations, an 
attorney for Leighton attempted to discredit a second complainant by 
telling state investigators that the individual knew nothing about what 
had happened in Michigan because he had only worked for Leighton in 
Ohio. However, Leighton has never held a private security license in 
Ohio, according to Jay Carey, a spokesman for the Ohio Department of 
Public Safety.

Unlike Michigan, Ohio prohibits unlicensed firms from bidding on or 
accepting a contract to provide security services regardless of whether 
it subcontracts to another company.

“They’re soliciting business in this field, so they must be licensed,” 
Carey said.

*Security and Insecurities*
Back in Virginia, Satterwhite said surveillance by MVP security left her 
feeling unsafe in her own community.

“For at least a year, probably more, maybe two, I was just on edge all 
the time, tense, looking to see is that white vehicle driving past my 
house a security vehicle? Is that white vehicle that passed me on my 
walk from my house to campus where I work a security vehicle?” 
Satterwhite said.

While there is no guarantee that licensed security companies will 
operate ethically, Satterwhite said companies that don’t bother to 
obtain licensure pose a much bigger danger to the public.

“What’s somebody going to do if they don’t even have a license at risk?”

[how Koch is killing democracy]
*Inside the Koch-Backed Effort to Block the Largest Election-Reform Bill 
in Half a Century*
On a leaked conference call, leaders of dark-money groups and an aide to 
Mitch McConnell expressed frustration with the popularity of the 
legislation—even among Republican voters.

By Jane Mayer - March 29, 2021
Audio: The presentation by Kyle McKenzie, the research director for the 
Koch-run advocacy group Stand Together, on a January 8th call among 
conservative opponents of House Resolution 1.
In public, Republicans have denounced Democrats’ ambitious 
electoral-reform bill, the For the People Act, as an unpopular partisan 
ploy. In a contentious Senate committee hearing last week, Senator Ted 
Cruz, of Texas, slammed the proposal, which aims to expand voting rights 
and curb the influence of money in politics, as “a brazen and shameless 
power grab by Democrats.” But behind closed doors Republicans speak 
differently about the legislation, which is also known as House 
Resolution 1 and Senate Bill 1. They admit the lesser-known provisions 
in the bill that limit secret campaign spending are overwhelmingly 
popular across the political spectrum. In private, they concede their 
own polling shows that no message they can devise effectively counters 
the argument that billionaires should be prevented from buying elections.

A recording obtained by The New Yorker of a private conference call on 
January 8th, between a policy adviser to Senator Mitch McConnell and the 
leaders of several prominent conservative groups—including one run by 
the Koch brothers’ network—reveals the participants’ worry that the 
proposed election reforms garner wide support not just from liberals but 
from conservative voters, too. The speakers on the call expressed alarm 
at the broad popularity of the bill’s provision calling for more public 
disclosure about secret political donors. The participants conceded that 
the bill, which would stem the flow of dark money from such political 
donors as the billionaire oil magnate Charles Koch, was so popular that 
it wasn’t worth trying to mount a public-advocacy campaign to shift 
opinion. Instead, a senior Koch operative said that opponents would be 
better off ignoring the will of American voters and trying to kill the 
bill in Congress...
- -
With so little public support, the bill’s opponents have already begun 
pressuring individual senators. On March 20th, several major 
conservative groups, including Heritage Action, Tea Party Patriots 
Action, Freedom Works, and the local and national branches of the Family 
Research Council, organized a rally in West Virginia to get Senator Joe 
Manchin, the conservative Democrat, to come out against the legislation. 
They also pushed Manchin to oppose any efforts by Democrats to abolish 
the Senate’s filibuster rule, a tactical step that the Party would 
probably need to take in order to pass the bill. “The filibuster is 
really the only thing standing in the way of progressive far-left 
policies like H.R. 1, which is Pelosi’s campaign to take over America’s 
elections,” Noah Weinrich, the press secretary at Heritage Action, 
declared during a West Virginia radio interview. On Thursday, Manchin 
issued a statement warning Democrats that forcing the measure through 
the Senate would “only exacerbate the distrust that millions of 
Americans harbor against the U.S. government.”

Pressure tactics from dark-money groups may work on individual 
lawmakers. The legislation faces an uphill fight in the Senate. But, as 
the January 8th conference call shows, opponents of the legislation have 
resorted to “under-the-dome-type strategies” because the broad public is 
against them when it comes to billionaires buying elections.

Jane Mayer, The New Yorker’s chief Washington correspondent, is the 
author of “Dark Money.”

[Digging back into the internet news archive]
*On this day in the history of global warming - April 19, 1990 *
The New York Times reports:

    "President Bush, responding to criticism that the United States had
    delayed taking concrete steps to address the threat of global
    warming linked to pollution, said today, 'We have never considered
    research a substitute for action.'

    "Closing a two-day White House conference on the issue, Mr. Bush
    said: 'To those who suggest we're only trying to balance economic
    growth and environmental protection, I say they miss the point. We
    are calling for an entirely new way of thinking, to achieve both
    while compromising neither, by applying the power of the marketplace
    in the service of the environment.'

    "Mr. Bush also proposed a series of steps for integrating
    international responses to the issue of global climate change. They
    included an international 'charter' for cooperation in science and
    economics related to global change, a statement of principles to
    guide such research, the creation of international research
    institutes and a communications network to monitor global changes."
