Five years ago, Oklahoma oil regulators took on a project with an impressive name: the Source of Truth. State officials wanted a comprehensive database capturing all vital information about the more than 11,000 wells in Oklahoma that shoot the toxic byproduct of oil production back underground. I’d heard about this project from several people during the 18 months I had spent reporting on the growing number of cases where oilfield wastewater blasted out of old wells, known as purges, after being injected underground at high pressures.

If I add any value here, it’s from applying a more systematic Keynesian perspective. I also know there…

The Virginia man accused of laying pipe bombs at the Republican and Democratic national headquarters on the eve of Jan. 6, 2021, said he deserves the same clemency for his actions that rioters at the U.S. Capitol received.
