This month, I sat down with the @harvardeelp.bsky.social y.social Clean Law Podcast to talk about the future of environmental justice - and the critical role states play in making sure all communities are protected from harmful climate policies.

New CleanLaw podcast: @jodyfreeman.bsky.social, Carrie Jenks, and @aripeskoe.bsky.social unpack President Trump’s latest executive orders on climate, energy, and the environment and what's at stake as federal agencies move to implement them.

Today on Volts: the costs of accommodating all those new data centers on the grid are being subtly shifted to ordinary electricity ratepayers, via rate cases. And in the process, Big Tech & utilities are forming an unholy alliance against grid reform. Two Harvard Law scholars get into the details.

The U.S. will be a superpower emeritus when Trump and Musk are done looting it. Three what-ifs that led to Citizens United and an America in existential crisis. Plus @tiffanymuller.bsky.social on how to fix it, if we can. My latest @thebulwark.bsky.social. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-road-f...
