Wildfires are one of our worst nightmares on the West Coast. Preventing them and responding to them is one of those climate-related challenges that seems daunting. What if progress is possible? What if we don't have to accept our fate in facing stronger and more frequent natural disasters?

Excited to join @ezraklein to talk through what happened in 2024. There's a turnout story this cycle, but not the one we're used to talking about. With less-engaged and less-likely voters becoming more Republican, a larger turnout meant a more GOP electorate.

Deriding kindness as "virtue signaling" foreshadowed a desire to punish virtue itself. * Do good science, lose your grant * Practice civic engagement in school, get abducted * Express yourself with peaceful protest, get run over * Serve the public as a government employee, get fired/threatened
