Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:
In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.
In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

If anyone is watching video of the President leaning on his wife to stay steady, or dragging his right leg(the one sometimes seen w brace around his calf under his suit pants) & struggling for words suspects he has had a stroke. That is not a sign of health.

Trump does not represent the “will of the people” – a stable majority of Americans, including about two thirds of those who call themselves independents, reject core tenets of Trumpism. It is the Republican Party that is moving away from the center of American society.

Funny that news channels have actually interviewed American who were detained and HELD. This woman is an immoral & disgusting liar. And she shot her puppy for misbehaving . . . Which does say it all. Heaven forbid you allow someone else to see if they could train the dog.
Kristi Noem: “There's no American citizens that have been arrested or detained. We focus on those that are here illegally. And anything that you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting.”

It curious that people (or perhaps trolls) try to follow who have never posted an original thought and have virtually no followers. Personally I block them because it seems like a weird way to approach this platform. Establish who you are, what you are interested in before trying to follow folks.

Extremely magnanimous of johnson to do everything in his power to prevent the release of the totally exculpatory epstein files, all to prevent democrats from embarrassing themselves. Truly a leader for all americans
Mike Johnson: "Suddenly now, they've somehow convinced themselves that the Epstein files will be damaging to President Trump and Republicans in some way that they've imagined, and so they feign outrage."

Folks if you have a Republican rep or senator you need to be flooding their zone with letters, cards, text and voicemails (assuming they avoid their constituents). It’s frustrating to be in a blue area and knowing they are trying to hold the line against this red madness. Be independent, be moral.
