California is powered by two-thirds clean energy and has one of the world's largest economies, proving you can fight climate change and thrive at the same time.

The climate crisis is an immediate security challenge — and California will always meet the moment.

Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, on elections: In the past, we’ve mostly seen foreign interference — my bigger fear now is domestic interference, some of that potentially originating inside the administration.

A small-town Kansas mayor is in trouble for voting illegally as a noncitizen—but the town of Coldwater, almost entirely Republican, is rallying around their mayor, who voted for Donald Trump in the last three elections and has lived in the town since he was a teenager. trib.al/K1au5Ny

Just got off the phone with the President of Antifa. They said they have a cell in Florida that set up a fake tailoring shop, where they created this custom garment to humiliate Michael Flynn.

What we’re seeing didn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of decades of political choices that prioritized the wealthy and powerful over working people.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

our governments need to get in front of this right fucking now.

we, the people largely own and pay for our own power consumption. if AI and data mining are going to add stress to grids that are already under strain, they need to start building their own wing and solar farms.
NC5: “TVA leaders said data center growth now equals power for 6 MILLION homes… AI demand projected to double by 2030… TVA reverses coal plan closure…”

As Trump, Beaman move to privatize TVA— and @SenatorHagerty has his eyes on running TVA.

A simple ? from Wajahat Ali pushes Hakeem Jeffries into a crashout:

"Why not lead and abolish ICE? What you're telling us is you want our taxpayer dollars to pay for a lawless masked armed agency to continue terrorizing our cities."

Jeffries: "I don't understand anything you just said to me."

Objective facts tend to be impolitic.

And if you’ve ever lived in a city or state that is not rich - there are many of them - this is just a basic observation.

Also strange that the notion of rich people decamping is considered impolitic and by default bad.
Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson last week described the city as “filthy rich.” Impolitic as that may be, returns from a new tax on high pay packages show she’s not wrong, writes columnist Danny Westneat.
Another ‘millionaires tax’ finds Seattle is far richer than anyone knew

A base that has long made pragmatic decisions appears increasingly attracted to charismatic outsiders who promise to break from the party’s failures of the last decade. They see their party’s leaders as feckless and inept.

It’s the Democratic Tea Party, with a twist. trib.al/ACDZQqj

Getting ready to hear HB 1570, which would allow non-teaching employees at @wwu.edu to collectively bargain (teaching ones already are unionized). This bill is being brought with the full support of @wwu.edu, which is a refreshing attitude for an institutional employer. Let's go workers! #waleg
