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.

I sincerely hope that Democrats are making a video library of video shorts of Trump to play when the next Democratic president takes office. When they criticise the new President then they should play the stupid insane shit Trump said on the same topic.

meanwhile the marketing to normies is basically “you are a baby, incapable of performing normal day to day human interaction, which you should outsource to our chatbot”

even many people who like the chatbot find it weird and infantilizing

Californians deserve unwavering support to recover and rebuild from devastating wildfires.

I'm issuing a State of Emergency proclamation to help Mono County families and businesses get back on their feet after the #PackFire.

California will stand with you every step of the way.

CONGRATULATIONS MADAME MAYOR Eileen Higgins!

We are all so proud of you—the first Democrat as Mayor in nearly 30 years and the first WOMAN TO LEAD THE CITY. YOU HAVE BROKEN THE GLASS CEILING AND I AM DANCING ON THE CLOUDS!

BREAKING: Eileen Higgins wins the Miami's mayoral race against a Trump-backed Republican – the first Democrat in 28 years to win that office.

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

Brown: Autocrats don’t fear the disease or the babies dying from whooping cough — they fear the evidence of it, because evidence exposes their failures, demands accountability, and empowers the public.

Everyone: ICE and CBP cannot be more hated

ICE/CBP: [starts wearing Meta smart glasses]

Everyone:

Minutes ago today the Trump regime abruptly cancelled citizenship ceremonies for several immigrants in Boston.

THEY CANCELLED CITIZENSHIP CEREMONIES.

These immigrants followed every rule & did everything right—Trump banned them anyway. All are from Black & brown majority nations.

This Is Fascism.

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.)

Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart.

watching this 1995 documentary about nuclear weapons tests and while nuclear weapons are, in general, an insane weapon, nuclear artillery seems even more insane? what do you mean you want tactical nukes to use on the battlefield?

UK Ambassador Mandelson fired over Epstein ties called him "best pal," defended his conviction. Trump arrives for state visit; nobody can mention his Epstein ties without incident. Britain sacks its ambassador to protect Trump's feelings about their mutual dead friend. Complicity as courtesy.

♥️ “ICE looked at that school, saw a community standing up for families, and decided it wasn’t worth it.”

I am not live posting the whole argument here because I want to listen closely to Trump v. Slaughter. But the solicitor general for Trump just said the point here in killing the independence of agencies like the FTC is that executive branch officers must “fear and obey” the president. Wow. #SCOTUS

Rep. Daniel Goldman (D-NY) notes that Elon Musk's personal tax rate was only 3.3% and Jeff Bezos' was only 1%, because they are able to take out tax-free loans against their stock.

He has introduced a bill to TAX those loans…

It's time for billionaires to pay their fair share!

UPDATE: Trump’s Paramount allies the Ellisons are trying to block the Netflix-WB deal and take over Warner Bros (which includes CNN) with a hostile bid.

(Trump signaled he may help them so his allies control more of what you see… paying attention yet?) www.bbc.com/news/article...

The most depressing lesson of the Trump era is that scandals don’t matter if the perpetrator and their supporters don’t feel shame.

Shamelessness is now a political superpower.

Every right-wing oligarch, podcaster, hack, Russian apologist, paid influencer, and bot has been activated in a coordinated manner to attack Europe after the EU fined Musk.

Mark Kelly speaks at a press conference

Mark Kelly: “Jobs are down. Wages are flat. Costs are up & this President is asleep — Like literally, he’s falling asleep on the job. It’s hurting the American people — He’s doing nothing to try to help people with the cost of groceries, rent, & healthcare”

Reddit post from Inside-Specialist-55 in r/povertyfinance: "I have always went here when things were bad. This year our family could not afford anything nice for christmas dinner so we turned to a local church food bank. I have never seen the line this long at this food bank, This is 4x the size of every previous year. We have only been to this one 4 times since 2017 but this year the line wraps around the building a second time to the left behind those rows of cars. Everyone is freezing and an older lady in line had to be taken inside because she looked like she was about to pass out from being too cold and shivering. If this is a sign that America isnt doing well IDK what is. I am in a small town in Kentucky with a population of less than 4,800 people. Literally 10% or more of the county residents are here. This is insane."

YouTube video by The Dick Cavett Show Jimi Hendrix Talks Nervous Breakdowns and Performing At Woodstock | The Dick Cavett Show

Off the YT algo. Post Woodstock Jimi on w Dick Cavett. BB King said Jimi didn't drink or drug and I believe it. I almost think he was on the spectrum now. Re the nat'l anthem: "All I did was play it. I'm American so I played it." Just beautiful. Imagine if he lived.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.

This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.

What an interesting coincidence.
