Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.

Enough to power 23 million homes!

U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

If you like that, look up the works of Alice Guy-Blaché, a contemporary of the Méliès brothers and extraordinary cutting-edge director. She was written out of history while still alive (she fought it) and has only recently been given her rightful due.

So. Rep Crockett announced her TX campaign for US Senate.

Good.

Voters get a choice in the primary. They can research the candidates, find their positions on issues and choose.

She's getting ultra-gerrymandered out of her Rep seat, so why not take the shot.

It's a primary. Not a coliseum fight.

I don't want to hear any Democrats kissing venture capital ass. Go be a filthy Republican with that kind of interest. This is how you lose.

No value, no villain, no vision. Sounds like the tagline for the earnings call of a collapsing appliance retailer

Has Trump transformed the presidency? This is the wrong question. Trump hasn’t transformed the presidency. He’s revealed what the presidency always was—what it was designed to be.

“The next ambitious sociopath watching this has already learned the lesson: the presidency is the biggest jackpot in American life and nothing stops you from cashing out.”

I yelled, “ART, stop talking to my human behind my back!”

Bye bye 2nd admendment then, hello to all those schoolchildren who make it to adulthood!

if this Supreme Court nullifies the 14th Amendment then i don't really have any problems with Democratic officials ignoring federal law for the foreseeable future

at that point we're just in a state of exception

There's a subset of GOPer that seems to have entered politics almost entirely for the potential to be adjacent to killing people and well imo that sort of person probably shouldn't be in office

Remove @schumer.senate.gov . Replace with @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

If the dems made Kelly their leader, people would start to respect them again.

Mark Kelly: "They are not silencing me. I'm still speaking out. I still am going to do my job every single day regardless of whether this president wants to kill me, hang me, execute me, or shut me up. I'm not gonna shut up."

Rep. Jasmine Crockett onstage with a crowd behind her

Jasmine Crockett: “To every politician celebrating this decision, let me offer a word of caution — Don't get too comfortable — When you push district lines this far, you risk losing the very seats you thought you locked in“

I think we can turn Texas blue—

😡😡😡

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.

Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

The Justice Department has 13 days to release the Epstein documents. The FBI paid nearly $1M in overtime to redact the FILES. Do you think congress will actually get to see everything? I highly doubt it. 🔄

Becoming a U.S. citizen takes years and involves immigrants acquiring a green card, extensive interviews, background checks, classes and a citizenship test. The naturalization ceremony is the final step to the process, where the oath of allegiance and a citizenship certificate are granted. Immigrants approved to be naturalized went to Faneuil Hall Thursday - known as the country's cradle of liberty - for that long-awaited moment to pledge allegiance to the United States. But instead, as they lined up, some were told by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officials that they couldn't proceed due to their countries of origin.

A screenshot of a social media post from a parody account styled as a governor’s press office. The post uses all caps and mocks a political figure by describing a fake award in exaggerated, insulting language. Below it is another post sharing a short video clip from a televised event at the Kennedy Center. In the video still a man in a suit is being given a large decorative medal by another man while cameras and a news chyron run along the bottom. The scene takes place on a stage with a blurred backdrop.

Tr*mp started his career in the public eye by pretending to fire people from fake jobs. Now he’s worked his way up to being in charge of an administration that has murdered* at least 86 people. What do you think is next?

*It’s not a war crime, since we’re not at war. It’s just murder.

This is why I’m cautiously optimistic — in the long run.

Most discussions about “misinformation” treat the problem as if people simply don’t have good enough critical-thinking skills. It sounds intuitive, but it’s not entirely accurate. The problem isn’t just individual ignorance, it’s the structure of the information environment people are placed into.

Perfect

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?
