I'm not running to bow to a corporation. I'm not running to raise your utility rates or help them do it. I'm not running so that your premium goes up and everybody looks the other way. I'm running to fight for you.

It really is striking how many authoritarian states have ended up in this exact same place, where the leader seizes control of scientific inquiry. Lysenkoism in the Soviet Union, Aryan Physics in the Third Reich, Great Leap Forward (also related to Lysenko) in China.

The Kennedy Center belongs to the American people. So did the East Wing of the White House. It’s entirely science fiction now the level of destruction wrought by a President. The Republicans bask in the wreckage, the press treats him like the supreme ruler and he isn't going to stop destroying.

The fact you previously vetoed a bill that required California AI data centers to report their water usage & the fact you probably won’t sign the new pair of water use transparency bills sitting on your desk reveals that your true allegiance is to the tech companies. calmatters.org/environment/...

Data centers are guzzling California’s water. We have no idea how much.

A new report warns that data center buildout is encroaching on California’s most vulnerable, water-stressed communities. The problem is, no one’s saying how much water they use
