Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.

For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.

The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

New York millionaires: threatening to flee the city since 2009

It's the first Friday of the month, which means we've gone 2 months now without a jobs report. For Trump, this is a feature of the shutdown, not a bug, since private surveys show the job market slowing dramatically. But without official data he's able to keep lying about it.

Food banks were ‘operating on fumes’ even before SNAP chaos • Ohio Capital Journal Even before the federal government shutdown posed an unparalleled challenge for food banks, nonprofits across the country were struggling with high costs and increased demand.

The unparalleled stress of a SNAP disruption on food pantries comes as they were already stretched thin. High grocery prices have pushed more Americans to look for help. But organizations providing food relief have lost more than $1 billion in federal aid ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/11/03/r...

Study hard today. Pop quiz after potluck!

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Like seriously, they're seeing the same polls we are, they know they're being blamed and they're thrasing for a message.

Notice how quiet the Vought stuff and punishing people is now.

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

The forgotten politics of “big tobacco” It’s worth learning lessons from the wins of the past.

When I was a kid, trying to regulate cigarettes was a top tier political issue — huge partisan battles, big lawsuits, major motion pictures.

And it now feels absurd that there ever used to be ash trays in my local McDonalds.

TRAININGS — No Kings

If you missed the protest safety, know your rights, and de-escalation training (or you want a reminder before tomorrow’s #NoKings Day), all of the recordings are available here. 👇

I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop “left-wing” terrorism. He is staging it.

His troop deployments are a false flag — meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns.

This is now very obvious.

Younger veteran: "How old are you, man?"

Older veteran: “87.”

Younger veteran: “Out here getting arrested, raising hell at 87.”

It seems to me that if offered the choice between Republican and republican-lite(i.e., centrist Democrats) Democratic voters, stay home.

Is there any record of how many employers have been arrested for their illegal practices?

ScienceSky, what 🧪/ #scicomm memes made you LOL last week? I'll start :

Project 2026: Trump's plan to rig the next election From nationalizing voter suppression to flooding the streets with federal agents, the president and his allies are using all the tricks in the authoritarian playbook to tilt the midterms in their favo...

Trump's takeovers of America's largest cities are about much more than deportations and supposed "crime." Advocates worry that they preview the plan for the 2026 midterms: the military at polls + ICE citizenship checks at the ballot.

Read @ariberman.bsky.social's latest:

The thing to remember about the latest dismal jobs numbers is that they were compiled by someone who knew he had to please Donald to keep his job.

The *real* numbers must be abysmal.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history

BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 28, the number is 100%.

Happy Labor Day.
