“I am embarrassed. We are all embarrassed. We Americans have guided our destinies so clumsily, with all the world watching, that we must now protect ourselves against our own government and our own industries.” ― Kurt Vonnegut, Palm Sunday, 1981

On hidden camera, pardon brokers Jack Burkman & Jacob Wohl told a 60 Minutes source $300,000 could help a felon get a presidential pardon. Three hundred grand. Wild. When a pardon has a price tag, justice is a luxury item & you can't afford it. #TrumpsCorruptCongress #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Nothing. Driving an EV saves tons of money creating a great cushion for other expected cost increases. If you’re buying a new or used vehicle and drive as the average American does, get an EV.

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

Walter Cronkite: After liberating execution camps… Germans (who cried) they didn’t know…were as as guilty as Nazis…because they applauded when Hitler shut down (media) and said, ‘We don’t need to know. We trust our government...’ It’s our duty to know.

This warning from David Letterman to the media from just a year ago feels sadly too relevant today. He is right: You can't appease a tyrant.

Eight of the top ten states leading the country in new solar installations voted for Trump in 2024. Turns out solar panels do not actually care about your party registration. bit.ly/4rsZVq4
Two individuals install solar panels on a rooftop under a clear blue sky. Text overlay reads: "US Solar Can Now Power 50 Million Homes, and Red States Are Building It." The logo "Good Power" is at the top. Beneath, a smaller text states: "Politicians can argue about renewable energy on cable news all day. Meanwhile, back in reality, red states are quietly building the overwhelming majority of America's solar power."

Ron White to Joe Rogan: Talarico didn't cost this state $6 million in fines and lawsuits, and that happened with Ken Paxton. Guess who paid that $6 million? You and me paid the $6 million for his bribery. His own party impeached him. He's a criminal. He's a piece of shit.

Electric cars and solar are the hedge against this out-of-control energy crisis
A drone strike shut down Saudi Arabia’s East-West oil pipeline this week, knocking roughly 5 million barrels a day offline. That’s about 5% of global supply, and it pushed Brent crude above $104. US diesel is at record highs. That’s the fossil fuel crisis making headlines. The quieter one is on your own utility bill, and it’s not getting better either. more…

Fukuyama: “Trump went to Moscow in the 1980s, while the Soviet Union still existed. He later spent tens of thousands of dollars on New York Times ads arguing that NATO caused the Cold War standoff and shouldn’t be funded.”

Winning an election gives the President no power whatsoever to disobey the law as he has done repeatedly and is doing now; instead it imposes upon him a legal duty to faithfully execute it, regardless of any campaign promises to the contrary.

If you’ve never seen a hydrofoil electric boat before, this one from #Navier is a thing of beauty. It can do 25 MPH and go 70 miles on a full charge. It’s the future of boating. And it’s a smooth rider as it flies over the waves!
