Hey, can you all do me a big favor? My childhood friend Chris recently found out he has terminal cancer. He has two daughters. One of them, Alivia, wants to go see Alex Warren with her dad in Columbus, Ohio. If you know someone in his orbit, send it to him. If you don’t, please share this post. ❤️

A climate agenda that is against cheap and abundant electricity is an utter political dead end. Huge amounts of wind, solar and storage is both compatible with a sustainable civilization and a useful tool to get the average global consumer on board with climate action. Why dismiss that?

the ceo at my company tells me that the greatest thing I bring to incidents is calm. when people see that I am working with them they know things are going to resolve and get back to normal. you can't feed into the panic, you have to help everyone out of it.

people come up with all kinds of fanciful math to justify billionaires' wealth but imo present political moment demonstrates conclusively that we need to tax billionaires at whatever rate will keep them focused on their own fucking business rather than our Medicaid and pediatric cancer research

If you took the $1.1 trillion earned by just 100 billionaires last year and mailed every household a check, it'd be $8,700 each. The thing is most billionaires don't actually pay taxes anymore. What the GOP bill is really doing is selling off public lands and cutting Medicare to pay off oligarchs.

A bar chart titled “The Cost of Billionaires Visualized” compares major U.S. expenses to the 2024 year-over-year wealth gains of just 100 billionaires. Bars represent spending or gains in billions of dollars and are labeled with household-level (HH) equivalents. Categories shown include:
• Ending homelessness: $20B ($159 per household)
• Federal employees: $210B ($1,670/HH)
• Teacher salaries: $214B ($1,702/HH)
• Gasoline: $307B ($2,449/HH)
• Groceries: $664B ($5,278/HH)
• Defense budget: $824B ($6,553/HH)
• 100 billionaires: $1,094B ($8,700/HH)

A red banner at the bottom reads: “If we can’t afford groceries, we definitely can’t afford billionaires.”
Sources listed include HUD, NEA, BLS, USDA, OPM, and Bloomberg (Dec. 31, 2024).

If tax cuts to the rich supposedly produce jobs. And CEOs are saying AI will take jobs. Why are we cutting taxes for the rich?

Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.

No. Absolutely not‼️ This is exactly what shouldn’t happen. Farmers don’t get a bailout this time. Especially if they helped put Trump in office — they can suffer right along with the rest of us losing our businesses and livelihoods. Trump needs to stop this tariff madness—instead of bailouts.

The default Dem position should be that nothing under Trump is valid. Trump didn't honor his predecessors' agreements. He didn't even honor his own trade agreements. He didn't honor Congressional appropriations. He doesn't follow laws. Clean slate. If you rely on him, your loss.

There we go. From the New York Times: “But according to a person familiar with the situation, a Bukele aide placed the two glasses with cherries and salted rims on the table in front of Mr. Van Hollen and Mr. Abrego Garcia in the middle of their meeting in an attempt to stage the photo.”

Mr. Bukele, in a social media post, even crowed that "Kilmar Abrego Garcia, miraculously risen from the 'death camps' & 'torture," was "now sipping margaritas with Sen. Van Hollen in the tropical paradise of El Salvador!" But according to a person familiar with the situation, a Bukele aide placed the two glasses with cherries and salted rims on the table in front of Mr. Van Hollen and Mr. Abrego Garcia in the middle of their meeting in an attempt to stage the photo.

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity. Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

Elon Musk used all the freedoms and opportunities of the USA, the country that defeated the Nazis, to become the wealthiest human being on earth. So how does he return the favor? He salutes the Nazis, then leads in the destruction of the Country made him. To me- that’s as traitorous as it gets.
