Meiselas: Trump says he’s focusing right now on laying off the Democratic agencies and government employees, whatever that means. Again, completely pathetic behavior, and in normal times, this would be impeachable and/or 25th Amendment territory.

🚨 Do ICE have MRE provisions? Oh, no. That’s a damn shame. All that income and no place to buy a meal. Hey, I know what they can eat… 1/2

California is about to 100% replace coal from our state's energy supply.

The 30,000+ megawatts in new clean energy and storage we've added since 2019 is now powering about half of our peak electricity demand.

While Trump bets on the past, California is shaping the future.

He didn’t “lose” the NPP

It was never a contest

Don’t let that nutty framing take hold

We should shake our heads in pity at the childish tantrum and move on

Lose the word LOSE when we talk about it
This entire episode is too weird

Super minor issue of timing.

In the Comey hearing, Pat Fitz said, Hey, can we have basis for Lindsey the Insurance lawyer's appointment stat?

He is submitting that challenge by October 20, before Tish James' arraignment.
