Do you have any sense of where Northern Illinois would rank (in carbon-efficiency terms) compared to other small regions around the country?

Nice work!

I wish the transition could happen overnight, but if you gamble too hard and we get caught short (i.e. energy crisis) - we would destroy credibility of the transition

I fully support tradition to green energy asap - but don’t agree Obama and Biden at fault for supporting USA fossil fuel growth.
USA energy security > USA full green energy

Good faith discussion is needed. Different viewpoints are needed. How else to learn?
Trolls and bots don’t bring good faith discussion. Block away and hopefully @jay.bsky.team and team are investing in tech to reduce bots

Follow up question- what do you (in your infinite wisdom) deem the maximum amount of money a person is allowed to have?

What do you propose doing with them?

The image shows a list of the Principles First Declaration of Principles: 1. Integrity, character, and virtue matter. 2. Every person has dignity, quality, and worth. 3. Truth, honesty, rationality, & facts are non-negotiable. 4. The Constitution & the Rule of Law are paramount. 5. Our government is a limited one with enumerated powers. 6. Congress writes laws, the executive executes laws, & the courts interpret laws. 7. Government closest to the people is most accountable. 8. People reach their full potential when they are free. 9. Free & functioning markets deliver prosperity. 10. Equality of opportunity, not equality of outcomes. 11. Government must responsibly steward resources for the next generation. 12. Civic associations, faith communities, & families should be the primary engines of our culture - not the state. 13. Strong families are the building blocks of society. 14. Sovereignty is critical to self-government. 15. America's role in the world is unique & important.

Screenshot of tweet from Brit Hume sharing link to The Spectator and saying, "Quote: "The NeverTrump movement had no guiding principle other than 'Orange Man Bad.' They were a collection of power-hungry individuals, frustrated at being shut out of the Republican administration or denied access to the halls of power..."

Actually, we with @principlesfirst.bsky.social have 15 guiding principles and "orange man bad" is not one of them. We give equal opportunity support and applause to anyone who lives out our principles.

It’s amazing they don’t tout this more

Right Netflix seems overloaded

Anyone else Netflix running a little funky during fights?

If You click on this, and then click “Pin to Home” this list will show up as a Feed for you. Trying to add everybody I see.

@jay.bsky.team - as a new user (as of this week) I’d find value in that idea

This is critical and smart - would like to see this adopted in other states too

Perfect! Thanks Barb

Is there a journalist starter pack on here anyone knows about?
