Just got fired from being a freshman football coach, if you want to know what MAGA does to communities.

They don’t care about what helps people, because the school is certainly not going to find an ex-NFL player willing to coach there at that level, they only care about trying to hurt people.

The White House's memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

“What you have is this desire to get people to buy into the fun of sadism,” says Jason Stanley, an author who’s leaving the US because of “concerns over fascism.”

The official voice of the US government Is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?

China calls them the "New Three" -- solar panels, EVs, and batteries -- a set of technologies the country dominates.

But once, the US had a headstart.

New from me and @naemas.bsky.social on how the US lost its lead in clean energy -- and how China took over.
www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

The U.S. invented these technologies. Then China dominated them.
