4.6 Billion Years On, the Sun Is Having a Moment In the past two years, without much notice, solar power has begun to truly transform the world’s energy system.

In the past two years, with surprisingly little notice, renewable energy has suddenly become the obvious, mainstream, cost-efficient choice around the world.

First extrajudicial killing by ICE. This is a five alarm fire.

We can’t have a democracy and have super PACs.

Listen to my latest interview to hear why money in politics is the core problem in our democracy and my bill to abolish super PACs ⬇️

McGovern: "A family making less than $50,000 a year? They get less than $1 a day in tax cuts. You can't buy a damn cup of coffee with that. But those making a million dollars or more? They'll get more than $250 a day in tax breaks ... that's how rigged this bill is to benefit the wealthy."

@pattymurray.bsky.social said it best!
“If a bill is so bad that you have to exempt entire states from its consequences to win the votes you need — just don’t pass the bill!”

Consider donating to Friends of the Everglades and the Center for Biological Diversity. They’ve filed a federal lawsuit in U.S. District Court to try and stop “Alligator Alcatraz” before it opens.

1 in 7 Americans relies on SNAP for their food benefits. Not only is it a critical program in promoting food security/health, but it has an outstanding return on investment: for every $1 invested in SNAP, there is $1.54 in economic activity as people go to local grocers. www.cbpp.org/research/foo...

This happened live on the show today. Independent journalist Jorge Ramos caught up with a pregnant U.S. citizen who told us she was roughed up and arrested by federal agents during a detainment near Los Angeles. Watch!

The Marines are not props to be used for political theater and a real leader would not even consider sending them to an American city in this situation.

Let this sink in.

Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence.

During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

This is a pretty important point!

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

The truth will out.

AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Sorry to step away from the catfight, but we’ve got a win! A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to dismantle AmeriCorps halting the termination of grants and its volunteer network!

In a new op-ed in The Hill with @mshepruralpolitics.bsky.social, we discuss how Republicans’ proposed cuts to Medicaid will most hurt Republican voters — not only taking away their insurance but endangering the stability of rural hospitals (which affects everyone!). thehill.com/opinion/heal...

What's in the Trump/GOP big, beautiful bill?

-Tax cuts skewed to the rich
-Medicaid & SNAP cuts
-Ends IRS Direct File
-New powers for Trump over the courts
-Blocks state/local regulation against AI, including rent-gouging software like RealPage

It's a big, ugly nightmare.

My quote of the day

Never lose the childlike wonder. Show gratitude... Don't complain; just work harder... Never give up.

Another win!!! Now release him. A federal judge just ruled that the law used to detain Mr. Khalil is likely unconstitutional. Why? Because it’s too vague and was never meant to apply to someone like him a U.S. resident who never left the country.

Glad to see this, but I have another idea...Hear me out here...

Why doesn't NIH just reinstate the effing awards since they are ongoing and already made it successfully through a competitive process?

Seems like this would actually be "efficient" (and also fair and just)...

Here is your Daily Reminder that the biggest scandal since or before Watergate is that Trump is the most corrupt, incompetent and dangerous president in our history.

Anyone collating a book of his gaffs? Will be a bestseller!

A strong statement about the importance of NIH on @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy Sunday Morning

(Part 1)

Hundreds of rural hospitals are at risk of closing, threatening critical care Hospital officials told CBS News the closure was driven by the same factors that have closed other rural hospitals: low reimbursement rates.

We should be investing in rural communities and making them better places to build a life & raise a family - not shutting down rural hospitals by choking off their funding.

Saving rural hospitals is one more reason to call your Representative and speak out against this GOP attempt to cut Medicaid.

A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035. 

Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.

This is the real government waste.

A reminder that if the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour.

For over half a century, the National Weather Service has operated 24/7. But after the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency pushed to shrink the federal workforce, that’s no longer possible in parts of the country.
