I wonder who's getting paid? Gilded age for the military-industrial complex.
An emotionally-laden pre-match press conference:
21-year-old Iranian forward Sara Didar and coach Marziyeh Jafari came to play football at the Asian Cup but had to address the conflict in her homelandπ
You only have a short time to comment. They are trying to destroy our forests to enrich a few logging company executives and the politicians theyβve paid off.

Chicago just named a snowplow "Abolish ICE" β here are the other winners: blockclubchi.co/4b6zwaQ
so Trump finally got around to Infrastructure Week?
Look at the last two alder races in my ward (the 47th) and say that again. Martin won a very open and transparent race among many good candidates and Pawar upset the machine. Just because we have the best, most organized people in the city doesn't make it exclusive or patronage.
Not recognizing charger networks, CAFE stds, and battery developer investments (and probably lots of other streams) should probably be mentioned.

Final EIA-860 is out, and 2025 really did it: 54 GW of new U.S. electric capacity, 96% clean. Solar again carries the offense, and we built more storage in 2025 than the cumulative total through 2023. More and more and more additions... but also record low retirements.

Its all about the grid!
For my part, I prefer an America with both 5yos! The more cute little 5yos the better! People are good. Having more people in the country is good.
My 'All American' halftime show is GWAR, Run the Jewels, and Tom Waits.

@julianastratton.bsky.social @ltgovstratton.illinois.gov @govpritzker.illinois.gov @jbpritzker.bsky.social I have some notes....
"his team used the WHOβs threshold of 5.2 ppb, because it is based on the best scientific evidence for improving public health...The United States has a threshold thatβs more than 10 times higher, at 53 ppb, which the Environmental Protection Agency has not changed since 1971."

βWhen the government kills, it has an obligation to demonstrate that it has acted in the public interest," writes the Times editorial board. "Instead, the Trump administration is once again engaged in a perversion of justice."
Itβs important that people:
1. Donβt let them bury their lies about Renee. Make them own that forever.
2. Focus on the administrationβs lies about Alex, even if they arenβt being said by Vance and Trump.

Today would have been the birthday of the late Hazel Johnson, the Altgeld Gardens resident known as the mother of the environmental justice movement. Ms. Johnson was the namesake of one of Monty & Rose's 2020 chicks (along with Esperanza and Nish). www.peopleforcommunityrecovery.org/our-story/le...
I was at that one too. Bonus points for the openers. www.setlist.fm/setlist/anth...
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. Itβs a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.
You may have missed the news this week while certain groups focus on themselves, but Australiaβs grid has hit a new milestone.
