Personal account. Trying to do the right thing and make the occasional joke. Former WSJ, AP & more. Now at @publiccitizen.bsky.social. (No, I don't actually have a mohawk).
what kills me is that he never actually engages with what progressives actually advocated for, policy-wise at the federal and state levels on fossil fuels. Especially after Biden lost in court on the leasing pause. It was all quite pragmatic.

the other thing about this is that there is no reason to pit these candidates against each other? each are good fits for their respective electorates and each shows the value of vigorous campaigns focused on the stated material problems of voters.

I started calling him out privately in 2011, then more publicly in 2012. He bad mouthed solar regularly mostly because he talked to advisors that were historians, not energy/technology experts:
