An important video about fossil fuels and electrification.
Whatever your views on climate change politics, this argument blows all of that away and exposes how fossil fuels are the original "You will own nothing and be happy" scam.

Turns out slapping the EPA around can have consequences for other things the Trump regime wants to do.
Ohhh another good line from this one
"Unfortunately for the Government, the Supreme Court recently concluded that “agencies have no special competence in resolving statutory ambiguities. Courts do.” Loper Bright Enters. v. Raimondo, 603 U.S. 369, 400–01 (2024)."

That means new public health experts could lose access to key higher ed resources, like loan limits & reimbursement.

That’s $5 billion more than the entire annual USAID budget. All to one country. To rescue one friend of the president’s.
Trump found another $20 BILLION to give to Argentina, totaling their bailout to $40 BILLION.
Yet we can’t afford to prevent millions of Americans from losing their healthcare.
