We need an amendment to get rid of the presidential pardon.

The risk of corrupting the entire federal government far outweighs any benefit of mercy toward a few individuals.

This 15-story data tower in the heart of the Amazon collects vital climate data that is shared with Americans in California and across the country.

The Trump Administration can ignore reality and worsen the climate crisis, but California will never stop fighting for our future.

Senators distance themselves from controversial payout provision Only one Republican senator has public plans to sue under new legislative language House Republicans are now seeking to scrap.

Now that they’re caught and can’t cook up a secret settlement with MAGA Bondi to line their own pockets.

What a steaming pile this is.

Avi Loeb's calculations about 3I/ATLAS are 100% wrong because he has never understood that dust in the tail(s) responds to solar radiation pressure. Solar wind shapes the ion tail. But the radiation pressure is about 1000 times larger than the solar wind ram pressure, for particles that feel it.

It feels like there is a invisible blackmail economy involving a surprising number of the wealthiest and most powerful people in the county.

Lots of the dumbest motherfuckers you know were ready to shoot up family restaurants because they thought Hillary Clinton and John Podesta were secretly trafficking children via pizza orders and Wayfair was shipping them in filing cabinets are gonna find any reason to not believe these emails.

Right. And Dems need more of it.

Right. The shame will be as effective as all the times someone has pointed out Republican hypocrisy and double standards over the last 10 years.

Hardly. There is one pretty empty sentence:
β€œYou can save on transport, construction and installation fees”

The rest of the article is fluff about what a β€˜big’ turbine it is; both in physical size and power capacity. But it’s only big because because it is two turbines glued together.

Why is it a β€œhuge leap”? Article does not explain.

Comparing output power of two turbines mounted on a single structure to a single standard turbines seems silly.

Is there a cost savings over two standard turbines?
It looks from the picture like it uses MORE steel than 2 standard turbines

So Americans should spend their entire working lives paying off a mortgage so Bill Pulte can sell more houses.

Caving on the shutdown won’t make you β€œmoderate.” It makes you WEAK! Giving Republicans what they want for NOTHING more than a β€œpromise” of a vote and risking millions of Americans’ healthcare isn’t compromiseβ€”it’s surrender and it’s the most RADICAL thing you could do in this moment. 1/
