At least three weeks

Says it all about this total grifter: in it for himself and out to fleece everybody else in the process. That's leaving aside that he loves Putin too.

The beginning 21st Century could have been a giant leap for humanity; an age of prosperity and advancement. But, no, for some people, their greed and hatred was more important to them than the survival of the species.

It's a no-brainer that so many Times client-hacks are coming out against the Greens, especially when putting a wealth tax into the debate.
Why would a Murdoch rag not want us to look too closely at the rolling disaster that is Reform, I wonder?
Extraordinary that the Green Party should be given serious scrutiny, but the Reform Party must be given unchallenged airtime and column inches.
I wonder why?

Hmmm. Wonder why so many solar projects and incentives are being canceled here in the USA….
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.
This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

I have such grave worries about the US and the rest of the world given Trump's second presidency. My only comfort here is knowing how farcical and fractious it will be, these people will all end up fighting among themselves.
