4-He decided to do the firings anyway

America’s biggest offshore wind farm will be online in six months Dominion Energy’s 2.6 GW project off Virginia’s coast is progressing fast. The utility has a new, more definitive target to plug into the grid: March 2026.

The rapid progress of Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind must enrage the fossil-fuel fetishists in the White House. Have they considered trying to self-soothe by snorting some coal dust? #CVOW

Customers May Openly Carry Firearms in Florida’s Publix Stores, Company Says

I guess Publix doesn’t have can-can sales. For those of you who don’t know what can-can is, it’s an annual sale of anything in a can at ShopRite and it is also where the worst of humanity comes out. I’ve seen fist fights over cans of tomatoes.

Oklahoma’s GOP governor opposes sending out-of-state troops to states that don't welcome them Oklahoma’s Republican governor is opposing part of President Donald Trump’s use of National Guard in cities.

"Oklahoma Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt, the chair of the National Governors Association, said Thursday that he opposes sending National Guard troops across state borders without the permission of the state receiving them."

First, an investigation into Ryan Walters. Now this?

Maybe Oklahoma is OK.
