save some smoke today for the reporters, pundits, and influencers who failed to convey the threat of Trumpism to their audiences and the voters who couldn't be bothered to make an informed choice last November

Over 19 hearings, we’ve examined the mounting economic costs of climate change.

It's not just polar bears and the planet anymore. Climate change is climate-flation: higher grocery bills, higher insurance premiums, and higher health care costs.

Here’s what we’ve found 🧵

PCE inflation has fallen to 2.1%—nearly at its 2% target—and incomes are up nearly $4,000.

The economy has grown 12.6% under President Biden—more than any presidential term this century.

16 million jobs created and the lowest unemployment in 50 years.

🚨 Do not let Trump take any credit for this.

Americans didn’t want another old president so they elected a 78-year-old.

Americans wanted to end crime so they elected a criminal.

Every single Republican will fall in line and every person Donald Trump nominates will be confirmed. No GOP Senator will stand in the gap because they’re all afraid Elon Musk will finance a primary against them. Let’s stop pretending otherwise.

We always say we’ve learned enough from history not to repeat past mistakes. Then we forget it, and proceed to repeat the same mistakes anyway.

New in PN: Blue state govs gear up to protect their people

"In immediately rolling out programs for resistance, govs also underlined that state Democratic strength has grown since 2016 — which is one way we are better prepared for Trump now than we were then."

Do yourself a favor and get a public library card‼️
Then sign up for an app called Libby where you can borrow thousands of audiobooks!

Your library card supports your local community, while it gives you access to resources and tools to get educated 📖💡
