whatever you can say about how shit the US has been, it has never institutionalised this kind of personal worship of the Leader in the same way that North Korea has. it's qualitatively different from the shitty things the US has previously done.

Rep. Thanedar asks Lyons and Scott if they think Trump will pardon them and Noem.
Scott: "I don't need a pardon from anybody."
Thanedar: "You better hope so because you will be held accountable for the absolute disregard of the law your agencies have shown over the past year."

US corn–soybean farmers use far more nitrogen fertilizer than crops can absorb, wasting them money, polluting drinking water, and producing climate emissions comparable to as many as 14 million gasoline-powered cars a year. Read our new report to learn more:
Less Fertilizer, Better Outcomes
Every year, US farmers apply between 30 and 50 percent more synthetic nitrogen fertilizer than their crops can actually absorb, and the excess that runs off farm fields does harm to people, ecosystems, and the climate.

Second: The electric sector is the domain of states. Without state renewables laws, there would be no renewables, period.
States made this market and this revolution that many are now calling "inevitable."
It is not inevitable. Feds and pro-fossil state legislators can do a lot to slow it.

This biggest source of climate pollution in the country is car tailpipes, and the only (ONLY) federal climate law currently is some very inadequate car tailpipe pollution standards. Trump has already thrown even those out.
Fortunately: states have a lot of power here.

If you want to make progress on climate, you need to focus on the States.

Navarro has repeatedly (and falsely) claimed that "illegals" were taking the jobs of Americans, including in this very interview.
If that's the case, then why is he now warning that job growth will slow amidst mass deportations? Shouldn't this be boom times for native-born workers?

Peter Navarro: "The jobs report comes out tomorrow. We have to revise our expectations down significantly for what a monthly job number should look like ... Wall Street has to adjust for the fact that we're deporting millions of illegals out of the job market."
