The full Vanity Fair article about the Kushner hack is attached. How it’s not being reported widely shows how compromised the media truly are. Apologies for no alt text - it’s too long to transcribe. Continued 👇

Solar has overtaken nuclear. A decade ago it supplied 1% of the world's power. In 2025 it met three quarters of global demand growth. Almost nobody saw it coming. I spoke to Jocelyn Timperley at BBC Future about why. www.bbc.co.uk/future/artic...

bbc.co.uk'It's offensively cheap': How solar power is quietly becoming bigger than nuclearAfter defying projections, solar's dramatic growth means it is overtaking nuclear as a global power source. Here are seven reasons for solar's success, and where it might go from here.

The price difference between a “Himalayan Rock Salt” candle holder … and a pony’s salt lick … is illustrative of everything that’s wrong with modern society. Am I wrong?

Are we now naming storms because they're getting worse ... or because it sells more newspapers?

Why does the Met Office insist on showing only % of rain? A 95% chance of 1mm ≠ a 50% of 20mm ffs. The % is basically meaningless, in an real sense of understanding the impact risk of a storm.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

Weird that the AfD gets support from both Putin ... on one side ... and Musk ... on the ... oh, wait. I get it now.

Scott Horton@robertscotthorton.bsky.social

A key takeaway from the leaked AfD emails: encouraged by Putin and the Kremlin, senior AfD leaders traveled surreptitiously to Syria to meet with Assad and Hezbollah. The Russian intelligence services orchestrated and supervised the whole junket with Hezbollah input. The whole episode reminds

5,000 years from Pharos of Egypt. We've learned nothing. Why do we still vest so much power in the hands of so few? Trump, Putin, Xi, Musk, Thiel, Ellison, Zuckerberg ... ... what have any of these men actually done but abuse the trust, skill, creativity or apathy and fear of others?

Elon Musk boosted the lie that James Talarico stayed at a mental hospital. Meta suspended No Kings’ Instagram account during nationwide actions. Staff at the Ellison-owned CBS News were reportedly told to tie Abdul El-Sayed to the Muslim Brotherhood and 9/11. Democracy dies in billionaire hands.

Who can seriously defend: - 1 man ruling over 350m (or 1.4bn) - corporate lobbying and funding of candidates - 4-5 year governments on choice of only ~2 candidates - policy choices on a choice of only ~2 candidates - zero accountability of leadership - policy only ever for next 4-5 years
