it’s the algorithms that scare me the most; finding reliable independent news and analysis is nearly impossible if the algorithms prevent or obfuscate finding it

As far as I'm concerned, the game, and the board, and the prize, is a national energy grid. Which is what the MOU *really* puts into motion, while everyone is obsessing over hypothetical pipelines.

National energy grid + renewables + grid level storage = fossil fuels becoming a niche commodity.
And again, I'm one of the people who think betting hard on oil right now is a bad idea. I've written *many* columns on that.

It's not what the Carney is doing. He's doing the opposite: implementing policies (industrial carbon price, tax credits, interties) that accelerate electrification.

BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

Somewhere in this mess he reminds us that he has aced three dementia tests.

I’m confused.

Does it mean that he’s really good at dementia? 🤔

Picture a team of medical professionals observing him taking his dementia tests, cheering when he can tell the difference between a giraffe and an elephant, nodding in approval when he shows off his FIFA participation medal.

Can you picture it?

This is life in the West Wing.

The GOP just blocked extending the ACA subsidies - again.

Making people’s healthcare skyrocket while you control the White House and both chambers of Congress seems like a great move for the midterms.

I thought the new US national security strategy was a white nationalist document opposing Europe and the Western democratic alliance, but the NYT challenged my assumptions, explaining that the NSS is a white nationalist document opposing Europe and the Western democratic alliance and that’s good.

Dear the media,

When the US president claims he brokered a peace deal in a place with active combat—eg Rwanda and Congo—the story is (1) fighting rages on, and (2) US president lies.

The story is not “president touts historic peace deal.” A peace deal involves peace.

Sincerely,
Factual reality

A media mogel with important merger business before the FCC says he has "great conversations" about it with Trump, while Trump for his part speaks openly about the kind of ownership he wants to see at CNN, a news network he detests.

New in PN: A band-aid on a festering hand wound

"The Epstein files and illegal boat strikes aren’t the only coverups taking place right now in the White House. There’s also something clearly wrong with the president’s health that the administration is trying to conceal from the public."
A band-aid on a festering hand wound
Something's up with Trump's health and we should really find out what it is.

UBI has been proven to work in every time and place in which it has been attempted. Even with the odds of "conventional wisdom" stacked against it. There are no valid excuses for not implementing it immediately, only greed and hatred.
Disabled people do not owe you their medical history or an explanation as to why they receive certain benefits

The idea that people must humiliate themselves for a meagre benefit that forces them into legislative poverty is another part of eugenics

We deserve a living wage.

We are not expendable.

America didn’t get downgraded by accident Trump drove it there. They’re the markers governments and investors use to spot countries sliding into authoritarianism. The world isn’t warning us anymore it’s confirming it.

Israel has officially come out in support of Russia. Netanyahu brags about being in daily communication and coordination with Putin. Israel is also invested in attacking the EU due to Europe still upholding international law and the ICC.
