When the CEO of one of the world’s largest mining companies calls out fossil fuel subsidies while backing renewables and storage as the future, you don’t ignore it. This isn’t activism, it’s economics. A fading model vs cheaper, faster, scalable energy. The system is flipping. Momentum is shifting.

Coming up in May: Georgia Dem lawmaker Esther Panitch is facing a primary challenger from DSA. Panitch accused Jon Ossoff of "betrayal" for his criticism of Israel; & said she'd consider voting Kemp over Ossoff because Kemp's abortion ban was less of a betrayal. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/u...
But Ms. Panitch did not rule out supporting Mr. Kemp if he ran.

“Kemp has done things that I am fighting against every day,” said Ms. Panitch, pointing to his signing of a six-week abortion ban. “But it is a different level of betrayal that Ossoff has committed.”
