Since strong men are en vogue again 🫠, might as well dress up as Lord Farquaad for this year’s Halloween.🤴🏻

Stopped by the No Kings Rally in Montpelier 🚫👑 — love to see the turnout and standing up against this corrupt Trump admin! 👏👏👏

This is American patriotism from people who deeply love their country and demand better from its leaders. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I’ve had lunches with worse views — a sandwich w/ a view along Lake Champlain 😍🍁🍂

Vermont morning fall vibes — hard to resist when a friend says you should come up and visit during peak fall colors 😍🍂🍁

This fucking guy 😂

What a loser surrounded by arguably bigger losers.

The need for affordable energy isn't a red or blue state issue -- it's a need for all Americans across the country. ⚡

The swing states collectively almost a year after the election. 🙃

Fun to hang with my fellow Husky Marching Band saxes from college for a mutual friend’s wedding in D.C.

How time flies!

Freshening up the timeline with some joy — including a new speedo and likely last pool day of the season (from this past weekend 😎)

Making bets on the global energy transition -- will America have to play catch up to the Chinese? 🤔 🇨🇳 🇺🇸 ⚡

This moment in America under the Trump admin feels — shall we say — not great. 😕

But collective action does still have its power. I don’t want to give my money to companies that won’t stand up for what’s right.

And companies should be paying a price for their cowardice against Trump.

A very telling chart -- as this polling from @heatmap.news shows, solar is indeed the most popular type of project Americans would like to live by. ☀️ ⚡

BUT isn't it wild to see that the next most popular is natural gas? 😶‍🌫️ 🤢

Great to be on the ground in Vegas for the big RE+ renewable energy conference— and of course, I had to come see the Bellagio Dancing Fountains while here.

Never gets old. 😄

D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton is truly the poster child (elder?) for Dems who need to retire from Congress.

As her constituent, I find her stance arrogant - believing at (checks notes) 88 years old she (and her staff) believe she is the best fit to represent D.C.

First time visiting the Gaylord Resort and Convention Center (gorgeous!) — on the ground for the Hydrogen Americas Summit for the day.

A very fun weekend with some of my favorite people. Not a bad way to spend Labor Day Weekend. 😎

Glad to see recent polling has GenZ souring on Trump (about damn time) -- but as a whole, the group was a bit more tepid in opposing Trump in Nov. and now it's come back to bite them in the ass as the economy hurts under MAGA policies.

Doing a 6 AM workout on one’s birthday is particularly psycho behavior 🤪 — but I wouldn’t have it any other way. 💪🏃🏻‍♂️🥵

Not a bad way to celebrate ringing in 37!

Thanks, friends! ☺️

What a packed weekend 🙌— w/ a rooftop party at my now old apartment on the same weekend I moved to a new spot in NoMa down the street.

Thanks to @brycebennett.bsky.social
and our party co-hosts for pulling it off.

Fun and productive last few days — get you a man who can do it all! 💪☀️

Another example of GenZ voters having been wholly tuned out as to what the impacts of a Trump presidency were going to be. 🫠😒

A big push on reaching GenZ better has got to be a focus ahead of the midterms because too often they’re clueless.
