What if Donald Trump decided to ban oil exports?

Protect Progress, an affiliate of the cryptocurrency-aligned Fairshake super political action committee (PAC), reported spending $362,000 on ads to support a Democrat in California’s 14th congressional district, just weeks after she won a special election against the same opponent. According to a Sunday filing with the US Federal Election Commission (FEC), Protect Progress reported spending $362,000 on media supporting incumbent Democrat Aisha Wahab in the Bay Area district against her fellow party member, Melissa Hernandez. Wahab defeated Hernandez in an Aug. 18 special election with more than 53% of the vote, raising questions about why the cryptocurrency industry-aligned PAC is supporting her in the 2026 midterms. Notably, both Wahab and Hernandez were ranked as “strongly supports crypto” after they went on the record with the digital asset organization Stand With Crypto to complete questionnaires ahead of the August special election. That election was used to determine who would replace Democrat Eric Swalwell for the remainder of his term, ending January 2027. Swalwell resigned in April amid sexual assault allegations.

Sammy Kogan/The Canadian PressPublic-market investors don’t seem to get Patrick Dovigi. The founder and chief executive officer of GFL Environmental Inc. GFL-T is listening to offers from private-equity suitors after last summer’s sharp sell-off in shares of the country’s largest waste-disposal company. GFL’s stock tanked after announcing plans to buy Calgary-based Secure Waste Infrastructure Corp. SES-T for $5.4-billion in cash and its own shares. Mr. Dovigi, already a candidate for the business hall of fame at age 47, snapped up Secure to become the oil patch’s dominant player in processing hazardous waste, chemicals and scrap metal. GFL closed the acquisition earlier this month. For investors who bought into GFL as an easy-to-understand garbage collector, the owner of the bright green trucks that pick up their trash, the Secure purchase added complexity and perceived cyclicality to the stock story.
