Vance: "We have to understand what happens when our nation gives in to these kinds of people, to young men with zero attachment to its land or to its history...The desire to destroy rather than the desire to build, that exact same cancer is what has corrupted Abdul El-Sayed writ large."

climate disasters are here and worse than predicted, diesel is 6+ bucks a gallon, and solar panels are cheaper than mid grade plywood. yet mysteriously it’s some big obstacle!
what gets me about the current surge in resistance to climate policy is it has never been more obviously necessary, cheap, or easy. half this stuff is on the shelf!!

Fun fact: In his diary for Sep 9, 1776, John Adams spent only a single sentence, with no particular enthusiasm, noting Congress had officially adopted the name "United States." He then spent a thousand words recounting his argument with Ben Franklin about whether to close the bedroom window at night
