Is this good?

Big mistake. Louise Lucas will come back and draw a 11-0 D VA map in 2027 as revenge

This is crazy!

Since 2020, electricity bills have risen 34% for customers of investor-owned utilities, but only 19% for customers of publicly owned utilities. Nuking the IOU model & making all distribution utilities publicly owned: people are saying.

“We’ll kidnap you on Christmas!”

In Hennepin County, which endured some of the most brutal ICE raids and the murder of Renee Good, Hispanic turnout is literally 5x what it was at this point in 2022, and >50% above 2024 at the same point.

Something remarkable is happening: James Talarico is running an expansively pro-immigrant campaign in Texas, a state Trump won by 14 points, speaking in Biblical terms about our duty to "the stranger." And it's resonating. That's seismic. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2160...

This is the second ruling against the illegal recision of Solar For All money. In a country with rule of law in effect, that would be it -- the money would be restored. But we have to ask ourselves whether Trump will simply ignore the ruling & if so whether there will be any consequences.

I was asked about by a pro-life student why he should support me…

People feel lots of ways about Amazon, but you can't deny that they invest a *shitload* of money into clean energy. $11 billion!

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

🚨NEWS: U.N.-backed investigators say they found “reasonable grounds” to believe the U.S. committed war crimes in two strikes in Iran, including one on a school in Minab. apnews.com/article/un-h...

Democrats hit 50% on average in House generic ballot polls for the first time today, per our average at FiftyPlusOne.news

Shoot it into my progressive Christian veins. I’ve been excited about Talarico ever since he came on the scene. Justin Pearson, Raphael Warnock, and Delia Ramirez are other examples of strong progressive Christian voices in politics.

28 states that today have set a new all-time high for diesel: AK, AL, AR, CA, CO, FL, GA, IA, ID, KS, LA, MD, MN, MO, MS, NC, ND, NE, NM, OK, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WY

You read that right ‼️ Bill Graves, former Republican Governor of Kansas, endorsed Adam. He knows Adam is a champion for every Kansan, regardless of their party. This campaign is for all of us.

I know we're all supposed to be herding onto the anti-data center bandwagon, but man, I worry a *lot* that it's going to overspill its borders & become a more generalized anti-wind & solar, anti-battery, anti-grid-infrastructure, anti-transmission, anti-anything mega-glonzo that leaves us worse off.

WIN: Virginia Democrats have officially banned convicted domestic abusers from purchasing firearms. Nearly every Republican voted against it.

In Independence, MO, 5 city councilors voted in March to approve a data center & billions in tax break. In April, voters ousted the 2 of those councilors. One lost reelection, the other ran for mayor & lost to a newcomer. Yesterday, voters recalled a 3rd of those councilors.

The school year is barely underway and, already, our children and educators are being forced to face the reality of gun violence in what should be the safety of their schools.

Easy. Done.

this is why left-wing democrats are winning so many elections recently www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-08-07...

Quite an upset in the #KSGov Dem primary. State Sen. Cindy Holscher, who came out against data centers and the Kansas City Chiefs stadium deal, has defeated state Sen. Ethan Corson, who had a big financial edge and an endorsement from term-limited Gov. Laura Kelly.

Don't look now, but the world has now installed 3TW of solar. Took 10 years to get from 100GW to 1TW. Less than 3 years to get to 2TW. Less than 2 years to get to 3TW. Analysts expect *9TW* by 2036.

Political predictions by the end of this week: 1) AIPAC pronounced more or less dead within the Democratic Party. 2) Mitch McConnell pronounced more or less dead within his body.

this is the kind of obstreperousness, don't tell me what to do-ness, i got rightsness that is the sheet anchor of American liberties.

Glad to see this policy, for which I've been stumping relentlessly for a year, popping up in the real world!

Last night was a huge victory for those of us who have been fighting election denialism. Trump’s claims were fact checked and dismissed in real time. Major media refused to air his speech. Today’s coverage is critical. These things would not have happened a decade ago

BREAKING: Electrification Action Plan dropped. The EU just committed to doubling electrification: 46% of final energy consumption by 2040, up from 23% today, where it has sat for a decade. My rapid response analysis of the Electrification Action Plan: open.substack.com/pub/janrosen...

PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

The “Broadview Six” are asking a judge to take the extraordinary step of appointing a special counsel to investigate — and possibly prosecute — Justice Department officials in Chicago and Washington D.C. for criminal contempt. NEW from @chicago.suntimes.com: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Jalen Brunson: “You’re allowed to think about the worst possible scenario. But you gotta go out there and do something about it.” A good mantra for fighting fascism too.

Lol, Trump can't even fuck things up right.

Grid-scale batteries are going in an absolutely wild pace. Every whingey objection to renewables you've ever heard is basically solved by batteries. This is happening whether any of the hopeless dipshits running the US want it or not.

This is the way, right here. Just get your utility to distribute a bunch of 5MW batteries around your distribution system and boom, grid problems solved. (Got a whole pod coming up on this.)

"I'd love an electric vehicle but I can't afford a new one." Great news for you!

Trust your common sense: yes, a series of massive fossil fuel supply shocks is, in fact, going to radically accelerate the process of electrification & decarbonization.

This is epic

i can't stop thinking about jd vance laysplaining st augustine to the pope

EVs are winning. They're obviously going to win. The US is punching itself in the dick by clinging to ICE vehicles.
