Said the #1 dumbest man in the Senate. It's not even close, though Johnson, Mullin, and Lee are nipping at his heels.

The Republicans' shutdown message is abundantly clear:
Let us jack up millions of people's health care costs or we'll starve the poor.
I wish that was an exaggeration. It's not.

The electricity system in the US that most closely resembles an actual, open market ... is stampeding toward solar, wind, and batteries. Conservative TX lawmakers have tried & failed to stop it because ultimately money talks.

New in PN: ICE is beyond repair

"The paramilitary cosplayers dreaming of civil war as their beer guts spill out below their tactical vests have been remarkably quiet this year. That’s because Trump no longer needs them. He has his own army of thugs, one even more lawless & violent. It’s called ICE"

ICE is out of control and beyond repair

This agency needs to be stripped down to the studs. Dems should start preparing now.

ICE goons used teargas in a quiet Chicago neighborhood before the start of a kids’ Halloween parade. Neighbors came together to shout at them and tell them to leave.

So much for the lie that clean energy isn’t reliable and can’t be there when you need it.

Esther Schindler @estherschindler.bsky.social · 3d

California hasn’t issued an emergency plea for the public to conserve energy, known as a Flex Alert, since 2022. Experts credit much of the progress to a surge in battery energy storage systems in recent years.

California invests big in battery energy storage — and leaves rolling blackouts behind

Batteries that pair with clean solar and wind energy or just bolster electrical grids in general have completely taken off and are making a big difference on the California grid.

The president announces an arbitrary price hike on Americans because his feelings are hurt by an ad accurately quoting Ronald Reagan’s criticism of tariffs

Canada was caught, red handed, putting up a fraudulent advertisement on Ronald Reagan’s Speech on Tariffs. The Reagan Foundation said that they, “created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address,” and “did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter.” The sole purpose of this FRAUD was Canada’s hope that the United States Supreme Court will come to their “rescue” on Tariffs that they have used for years to hurt the United States. Now the United States is able to defend itself against high and overbearing Canadian Tariffs (and those from the rest of the World as well!). Ronald Reagan LOVED Tariffs for purposes of National Security and the Economy, but Canada said he didn’t! Their Advertisement was to be taken down, IMMEDIATELY, but they let it run last night during the World Series, knowing that it was a FRAUD. Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.

It corrupts our political system every day.
