Last month, California's power grid supported the highest electricity demand since 2022 without any emergency measures. That was no accident — the Golden State is proving that clean energy and battery storage systems are the best ways to keep the lights on.

With Trump’s latest betrayal of Ukraine, MAGA Republicans who continue to defend Trump when he licks Putin’s balls can all go fuck themselves. Trump is a feckless, pathetic traitor — and he has the blood of innocent Ukrainian children on his hands.

22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.

Not so sure Republicans want the Dobbs decision back in the spotlight like this as the Midterms approach…
A screenshot of a CBS News post on X with a black background and white text. At the top left is the CBS News logo and verified account name, “CBS News @CBSNews,” with “X.com” in the upper-right corner.

The post reads: “Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito said the 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case, which overturned Roe v. Wade, required ‘courage’ from all of the justices in the majority.

‘We didn’t know it when we produced the draft that was leaked, but it required courage to go ahead with that because of the implications,’ he said.

He told CBS News’ @JanCBS that he lost friends over the Dobbs decision. And he called physical threats and harassment ‘quite disturbing’ and ‘a danger for the courts.’”

Below the text is a large video still from the CBS News interview showing Justice Samuel Alito seated indoors. He is wearing a dark suit, white shirt, and dark red tie, and appears to be speaking while looking slightly to his left. A small CBS News logo appears in the upper-left corner of the video frame.

Trump’s tomato tariffs could be coming for your free chips and salsa. A 17% tariff on Mexican tomatoes has sent tomato prices soaring. Restaurants say the added costs are getting harder to absorb, and some are considering charging for salsa instead of putting it on the table for free.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

The amendment not only gives control of local property taxes to politicians in Raleigh; it also tells them they can hand out favors to whoever they want. ncnewsline.com/2026/10/02/d... (Commentary) #ncpol

A proposed amendment to cap local property taxes looks appealing, but it’s really a gift to data centers, Duke Energy and Raleigh politicians.
