TIL Trump didn't bother to refill the strategic petroleum reserve last year when oil was dirt cheap. what can you even say www.ft.com/content/d546...
Great so everyone can come together and hate the Republican party and vote every last Republican out of office
An hour apart. Perhaps we should stop treating the mindless weathervane spinning in the breeze as if it has a clear strategic direction we can ascertain.
Well you can with Biss
Totally reasonable
Me? I would vote for Biss, I support cutting off all aid to Israel, and I find shitting on normie liberal pols annoying
Bsky peeps don’t care about competence. Only gaza
Another Monday morning we wake up to energy market turbulence.
After fossil fuel prices stabilised somewhat towards end of last week they are reaching new highs and could rise further.
Renewable electricity does not as the sun & the wind don’t care much for what happens in the Strait of Hormuz.
Honestly I’m not a morning person but I frequently have to get up quite early for work and I don’t need it to be light outside in the morning in winter! Would much prefer a little bit of sunlight after work
Bridget Gainer missed nearly 1 in 4 board meetings — the second-worst attendance record among incumbent commissioners.
Cook County deserves elected officials like Drake Warren who will treat their position as their full-time job, not a side gig.

Which is why we should be moving to electrify everything. We have the technology and there is no longer any reason to rely on dirty and geopolitically sensitive fossil fuels
Republicans CHOSE to cut $1 trillion from Medicaid.
They CHOSE not to extend the ACA tax credits to keep your premiums down.
They said it was too expensive.
And yet, Republicans are completely fine with a reckless war with Iran that's costing billions.
Why? It’s just a really red and conservative state
The Future We Feared Is Already Here

You gotta be kidding me
That’s weird, doesn’t seem like it should be a hard problem to solve
BREAKING: An Iranian drone attack caused “material damage” to a desalination plant, Bahrain said. It is the first time an Arab country has reported Iran striking a desalination plant. Follow live updates.
Shut it down
"The Wall Street Journal found that the Department of Homeland Security, created in 2002 to protect Americans, has turned its force against citizens."
That would be oil & gas industry and cats
Agree, but I think the fact that Rogan is so popular/influential has a lot of explanatory power when it comes to why America is such a disaster right now
Sunlight travels 93 million miles to reach the earth
None of them through the Strait of Hormuz

Nah American voters just suck and are stupid
The statement with the most explanatory power in US politics is: “American voters are fucking morons”
I think having South Carolina so early is going to make it really hard to ever get a good nominee
Especially in light of his disgusting truth social post this morning written at the level of a toddler
Iran, which is being beat to HELL, has apologized and surrendered to its Middle East neighbors, and promised that it will not shoot at them anymore. This promise was only made because of the relentless U.S. and Israeli attack. They were looking to take over and rule the Middle East. It is the first time that Iran has ever lost, in thousands of years, to surrounding Middle Eastern Countries. They have said, “Thank you President Trump.” I have said, “You’re welcome!” Iran is no longer the “Bully of the Middle East,” they are, instead, “THE LOSER OF THE MIDDLE EAST,” and will be for many decades until they surrender or, more likely, completely collapse! Today Iran will be hit very hard! Under serious consideration for complete destruction and certain death, because of Iran’s bad behavior, are areas and groups of people that were not considered for targeting up until this moment in time. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Trump's psychotic, murderous post: "Iran is being beat to HELL … They said, 'Thank you President Trump.' I said, 'You’re welcome!' ... Today Iran will be hit very hard! Under serious consideration for destruction & certain death are groups of people not considered for targeting until this moment"
Clean electrification is the most important thing we can do to protect ourselves against inflation
