Trump seeks to label Democrats as communists, but he was the one who rolled out the red carpet for Chinese President Xi Jinping and kissed his ass. He is clearly Putin’s comrade and buying government stakes in private companies, so why aren’t more people calling out this bullshit? #ComradeTrump

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

Most notable are the very high odds (>70%) of a winter that is *substantially* wetter than average (80th percentile or wetter)--particularly across California and Florida. This continues to be the strongest seasonal-scale predictive signal I've ever seen in California.
Plot showing data from ECMWF SEAS5 seasonal model September update. It depicts the odds of precipitation during Jan-Mar 2027 falling into the wettest 20% of all years (at or above 80th percentile), and California is painted as "upper tercile" with 70-100% confidence of being among the top 20% of all winters.

Line chart titled "The United States currently has the highest inflation in the G7" showing year-ended consumer price inflation rates across G7 countries. The United States leads at 3.5%, followed by Canada at 3.2% and Italy at 3.1%, while Japan has the lowest rate at 1.5%. The 2.0 percentage point gap between the highest and lowest rates reveals divergent price pressures among major advanced economies, with the US experiencing notably stronger inflation than its peers.
