“It was renewables that did it!” That was the headline after Spain’s blackout on April 28. But the official report published today points to other factors: chain reaction of overvoltages led to cascading generation disconnections. Human error played a big role too. media.licdn.com/dms/document...

We kept being told that journalism was a bulwark against fascism, a "fourth estate". This is the liberal frame for perceiving the industry's worth. But the reality is the polar opposite: fascism has been allowed to thrive, and could not have done so, without journalism.

Shameful really One of the big contributors is our poor quality of housing. You can rate the thermal performance of housing on a star rating of 0-10. The average star rating of Australian homes built before 2003? 1.8 stars…

I know these comparisons are tiring but: Imagine if the Secret Service and FBi wrestled Tom Cotton or Josh Hawley to the ground and cuffed them for interrupting Sec. Mayorkas speaking at a press conference?! The impeachment articles would fly! And in fact, they DID impeach Mayorkas for less….

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.
