Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.

Enough to power 23 million homes!

U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.

Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.

When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

Hakeem Jeffries will never lead the Dems where they need to go in order to help the people.

He will choose restoration over reform because he has been groomed by the Establishment.

I wish people could finally accept this.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.

Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.

Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

Electric bills are up 11% this year, and shutoffs are spiking across the country.

At the same time, corporations are building hundreds of energy-hungry data centers, and working families are being forced to absorb the cost. Higher bills for us, higher profits for them. seiu.co/3M71usW
More Americans are getting their power shut off, as unpaid bills pile up
Average electricity costs have risen 11 percent since January, more than three times the rate of inflation.

This is ridiculous!! Pete Skandalakis and the other prosecuting attorneys in GA are cowards. They should be disbarred!! I don’t care if Fani Willis did go on vacation or out to eat with her co-worker. At least she had guts. Republicans in GA have to go!!!

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

In the South, when KKK & white people hung black people, it was a party! Folks gathered, had their kids there. Sometimes there was torture, other times a straight hanging. I presume folks who voted for *47 are their descendants? GOP 119thCongress seems silent, so I presume they have no objections?🇺🇸👀
Does this administration really think Republicans want to turn on the TV and see Democrats being hung, as Trump is teasing? How would that work? Would there be ads promoting it? Would there be an opening show like UFC or Carrie Underwood?

Give me a fucking break. Trump is barbaric.

COP30 overpromised, underdelivered, empowered distractions, backtracked on issues and once again gave big oil and big ag a free pass.

Unfortunately, the suspicions of climate scientists (here in Brazil and abroad) were confirmed again.

Solar capacity is expected to triple based on new projects in the pipeline.

Total global solar capacity, including all projects in construction and planned, is expected to reach almost 3 terawatts, with 80% concentrated in just 15 countries.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Still thinking about the fact that Obama appointed Summers to the National Economic Council AFTER the latter had to step down as Harvard president for being an outspoken misogynist. Like, that wasn’t disqualifying.

This morning, the President of the United States publicly called for the execution of six Members of Congress.

Donald Trump must be removed from office. Today.

He is a clear & present danger to this country. Right now. Invoke the 25th Amendment, or impeach & convict him. Now.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

Millions of dollars worth of contraceptives have been stored in Belgium since the U.S. froze foreign aid. A local official says some products were stored improperly and are largely unusable.
