And we all know who the "we" in this sentence means.
A screenshot of Donald J Trump posting on Truth Social. The post reads "The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money. BUT, of far greater interest and importance to me, as President, is stoping an evil Empire, Iran, from having Nuclear Weapons, and destroying the Middle East and, indeed, the World. I won’t ever let that happen! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

Happy Public Lands Day from past me celebrating the designation of Camp Hale as a national monument. Looking forward to the day we can celebrate like this again.

How ‘bout we focus on the real problem: Trump banning clean energy and insisting on expensive, dirty energy - instead of victim blaming us for running the AC in the summer.

When you CUT OFF WIND AND SOLAR (which MANY smart people say are the CHEAPEST, CLEANEST and MOST BEAUTIFUL energy sources) prices WILL GO UP. The ones raising energy prices are TRUMP, and the OIL and GAS COMPANIES who gave him $1BILLION.
A screenshot of a Donald J. Trump Truth Social Post. The text lies: 

Any State that has build and relied on WINDMILLS and SOLAR for power are seeing RECORD BREAKING INCREASES IN ELECTRICITY AND ENERGY COSTSS. THE SCAM OF THE CENTURY! We will not approve wind or farmer destroying Solar. The days of stupidity are over in the USA!!! MAGA

Executive orders like this one (once again, released in the middle of the night) are how the Trump regime is going to implement the horrors of their Rate Hike. Deliberately opaque language can’t disguise that this order aims to ban clean energy, and that it will raise energy prices.

Great to spend a little time with @rowefinkbeiner.bsky.social this morning -- thanks for the antennae and more importantly for the advocacy to stop the Big Ugly Bill.

They said they were pro small business. They lied. www.inquirer.com/life/outdoor...
A screenshot from the linked article. It read  as follows:

Across the street from Seven Points, at Blackwoods Smoke Shack, manager Kris paterson said tourists, including campers, are the lifeblood of the family's seasonable BBQ business. 

"Is it hurting our business? yeah it's hurting our business," she said. "It could destroy us this summer. We get a lot of campers here, all summer."

Owner Brian Patterson, 37, Kris' son, said business is down up to 45% from this time last year. 

"That's hundreds of families not coming through here every weekend," he said. "This will put a hurting on us. If they don't do anything soon, this summer is ruined."

Last night at LCV’s annual Capital Dinner, I was able to speak with nearly a thousand climate fighters about the path before us. I wanted to share with you part of what I said to them

My outfit’s a little less strikingly green, but my resolve is as firm as Tiernan’s today. I’m working for a clean, healthy planet I can enjoy with my kids, my friends and the entire world. Who’s with us?

David Brooks isn’t anybody’s idea of a reactionary, so seeing this from him really drives home how dangerous the Trump regime’s power grab is - and how all of us, no matter our political opinions, need to work together to stop it. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/17/o...
A screenshot of an article. The text reads:

What is happening now is not normal politics. We're seeing an assault on the fundamental institutions of our civic life, things we should all swear loyalty to — Democrat, independent or Republican.

It's time for a comprehensive national civic uprising. It's time for Americans in universities, law, business, nonprofits and the scientific community, and civil servants and beyond to form one coordinated mass movement. Trump is about power. The only way he's going to be stopped is if he's confronted by some movement that possesses rival power.

Speaking at the Hands Off! Rally in DC, I could feel the frustration. From raising costs and killing jobs by banning clean energy to rolling back clean air and water rules to selling public lands, Trump’s actions are hurting people and entire communities across the country. 3/10

I’m Pete Maysmith and today is my first day as the new president of the League of Conservation Voters (LCV), and my first day on Bluesky! I’m a dad, a Westerner, a biker and runner, and I can’t wait to get started leading the fantastic team at LCV. Here is some of what we are already doing: 1/10
