We often forget how far we have come:
➡️ Today almost 50% of EU electricity generation is from renewable energy sources.
➡️ It is not long ago that fossil fuels dominated the EU's electricity mix. This year their share is approaching 1/4 of EU electricity generation.

The President is calling for the arrest of a Governor for simply opposing the president’s unlawful power grab.
It’s dangerous, without merit, and just another way to distract from his attempt to enact the largest redistribution of wealth from working class families to the wealthiest 1% in history.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.
Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

-- roughly doubled again;
-- went up ≈ 40% from there;

REPORTER: Why are you creating an expedited path into the country for Afrikaners but not others?
TRUMP: Because they're being killed. And we don't want to see people be killed ... it's a genocide that's taking place. Farmers are being killed. They happen to be white.
