The historically volatile Texas grid was entirely stable this summer, despite extreme temperatures. Grid operators never once had to ask Texans to conserve energy or shut off their air conditioners.

Why? Solar & batteries. Want a stable grid? Try solar & batteries.

Solar and batteries had a record-setting, grid-stabilizing summer in…

Solar has set 17 power generation records in Texas so far this year, shoring up the grid alongside batteries as some gas plant developers step back.

Just what mastermind Bannon, (on leave from his alley-drinking skid row gig), instructed them to do. Bury us daily with NEWS so we don't notice the big steal.

We’ve become so desensitized to the many grifts that we no longer question why, for example, Jared Kushner (who is not a diplomat, member of the administration, or elected official) is part of the negotiations to end the war in Gaza. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It’s the art of the dodgy deal, Middle East edition: author Donald Trump, updated by Jared Kushner | Marina Hyde

Does the Donald know that there’s a new master negotiator in town? Of course he does, he taught the apprentice everything he knows, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

International visitors stopped coming and now you have chased out the rest of the US. Have fun with no tourism. Poor Magas can't afford to vacation in other states.

The evil #orangeDecibyte says that "anifa" and "woke" are swear words; You can't take it seriously.
As a de facto vassal (German), I'm pleased that decent Americans (there are two Americas) are starting to fight back.

How to #Resist
There is something #keyboardWarriors can do:
Contact support.olympics.com/hc/en-gb?ret..., please, and tell them that the current regime is not qualified to host #OlympicGames.
Evil #orangeDecibyte and its bosses, #PresidentThiel, #PresidentVought, and #PresidentMiller won't like it.

I wrote to: https://support.olympics.com/hc/en-gb?return_to=%2Fhc%2Frequests
My screenshot reads:
"Dictatorships are not allowed to host Olympic Games, so why haven't you canceled the USA as host yet?

Hello,

the USA has transformed into a Nazi-style dictatorship.
There's no free press anymore, many judges have been replaced by sycophants, and anyone who isn't white enough can be deported by Trump's drastically overpaid and underqualified
GeStaPo, ICE.

A country like that shouldn't host the Olympic Games!
Please do something. Because if you don't, and allow the Olympic spirit to be raped, you will permanently devalue these Games.

Thank you in advance!"

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials.

I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.
