The No Kings march was truly uplifting and empowering for me yesterday. I met Lady Liberty and Superman, and I got to sing "Do You Hear the People Sing?" I will continue to use my talent to restore our nation to a country for all of us! #NoKingsDay #nokingsnyc #freedomofspeech #democracy

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

Natural gas companies argued that increasing production would lower Pennsylvanians’ electric bills. But in the last few years, residents’ bills have only gone up.

Voters in the PJM and MISO grid regions are unsurprisingly concerned about rising power prices — and support grid expansions to combat them.
Majority of Americans want a big power grid and more cheap, clean…
A new Conservative Energy Network poll found that two-thirds of likely voters support more transmission lines to boost clean energy and grid reliability.

History often turns on unexpected pivots. The aspiring dictator has probed the limits of his power by getting a comedian fired. This has been met with significant pushback by both ordinary and powerful people. Tipping points like these can make a difference. 1/x

Do NOT call the number below to report aliens but you should retweet it, skeet it, whatever, you know the drill, so others know not to call either.
Seriously, what if you travelled millions of light years only to be ratted out by some toad online ?

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽
I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️
