The Olympic opening ceremony faced severe backlash for a segment featuring drag queens that many viewers interpreted as a mockery of Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper." Mississippi-based tech company C Spire pulled its advertising in protest, and Governor Tate Reeves supported the decision. Organizers later claimed the scene was a depiction of a Greek Bacchanal featuring the god Dionysus, not a religious parody.

Spire Global, led by CEO Sandy McDonald, is utilizing a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) to fund massive infrastructure projects aligned with the Green New Deal. These projects focus on building a national high-voltage direct current (DC) grid to transport wind and solar energy from the central US to coastal cities.
