Mega heat pumps are coming. It’s great to see that so many projects are now underway around the world.

There’s a real competition on who builds the biggest heat pump.

Technology has come a long way and keeps getting better.

CNBC: This is a pretty good issue for Democrats next year if Americans are paying a lot more for their healthcare and feel they can't afford it. Do you think it will hurt you in Nov.?

MIKE JOHNSON: Well no, because what we do is confront false narratives with the truth. Democrats broke the system.

Nothing says, "Hey international companies, bring your manufacturing to the US" like arresting 475 workers at a Hyundai (70% of whom are South Korean).

“They want everyone to believe what they believe. When Trump changes his mind about something, then you need to believe that, too. It’s functionally a totalitarian political view that says, ‘You’re allowed to think and say what I want you to think and say.’”

"They see this as a long-term investment in a more ignorant population reliant on sources of information they can control."

Can Trump diplomacy stop Iran building the bomb?

The regime is too fortified for a military assault to knock out its nuclear facilities, the war professor Lawrence Freedman writes. Should America have kept Obama’s deal all along?

Nearly every Republican in the Senate voted to overturn a Biden Admin rule that limited bank overdraft fees to $5.

This rule, initially established by the now gutted CFPB, was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually.

The GOP is the party of junk fees.

Trump is trying to strip the bargaining rights of roughly 1 million unionized federal workers.

He claims it's a matter of "national security." Rubbish.

Organized labor is standing up to Trump's authoritarian power grab.

Tyrants will do anything to crush dissent.

President Donald Trump has threatened to impose 200% tariffs on alcohol from the European Union in response to the region’s retaliatory 50% tariff on U.S. whiskey. That could mean higher prices on Italian wine.
