The golden genius of the modern fascist movement, outsmarted by a clever roadrunner. futurism.com/tesla-wall-a...

The smallest red carpet ever. And it’s in a puddle.🤣🤣🤣 Bravo Canada 👏🏽

What's up with getting rolling on next year's flu vaccine? Canceling the planning meetings for this is a BIG deal. As with so much else, our politicians should be screaming about this and bringing as much pressure to bear as possible.

This is why we have debt. It’s tax cuts for the wealthy not programs for tbe poor. There are more sources and you can find them easily online. www.americanprogress.org/article/tax-...

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Thank you, @govpritzker.illinois.gov!

Trump is deprioritizing the deportation of actually dangerous people on order to ensure that all undocumented people are afraid. And he’s prioritizing deportations of non-dangerous people over enforcement of all other crimes. The man is committed to his racism.

Re LRS, I keep coming back to this point when I encounter the still-somehow-live discourse about whether or not the incoming regime is 'fascist' (it is, but that doesn't help the broad left get over with normies)...

Two thoughts: 1. This is a really good story. 2. I know from experience that it's hard to get people to read stories about energy efficiency. So when there's a good one like this, share it far and wide. #energysky

All right, a quick 🧵. (Deluding myself into thinking they're going to be quick is part of the process.) So, what is a good & complete federal climate policy? IMO, it's a stool with three legs: 1. Massive investments. 2. Regulatory reform. (Big bucket.) 3. A backstop price on carbon.

I think this has been a problem for a long time. Most of the 'regulations' that most people encounter are made by states and cities; Republicans running for federal office then promise to 'cut red tape', but only a small fraction of businesses face federal regulations at all.
