permitting reform to unlock new transmission lines and investments in nuclear energy are both routinely opposed by “environmental” groups, by the way

If you want to know the name of the NIMBY who has been blocking the repairs to the Santa Cruz wharf since 2016, her name is Gillian Greensite and she deserves the blame for what happened today www.goodtimes.sc/the-wharfs-c...

My friend Brianna Wu will be joining me at 1ET/10 PT to discuss new WSJ reporting on Biden’s senility going back to 2021. Other special guests planned. Set a reminder! twitter.com/i/spaces/1Bd...

New: Chapter 1 of my book on Elite Human Capital. It focuses on what motivated me to write it in the first place: shock at the stupidity and moral depravity of MAGA. I realized we were constantly reaching new lows that cried out for novel explanations. www.richardhanania.com/p/donald-tru...

One of the attorneys behind the Dominion defamation lawsuit against Fox News is turning to a new enemy: anti-renewables activists. I explain how combatting disinfo is a new climate action frontier for @heatmap.news heatmap.news/plus/the-fig...

On the Shellenberger problem of non-leftist media. Defend Trump when you can. When you can't, just deflect by criticizing elites and telling people to shut off their critical thinking skills. This helps explain why right-wing discourse has gotten so bad. www.richardhanania.com/p/the-rights...

Just created a new Manifold sweeps market. Will at least three of Trump’s cabinet picks go down? Market says 32% chance now. This is basically a market of worst case scenario of Trump’s political fortunes in the early months. manifold.markets/RichardHanan...
