Coons on Epstein files: "My hunch is that AG Bondi, having just been ordered on social media by the president to open an investigation into a series of high-profile Dems, will promptly say, 'No, there's an ongoing investigation, we can't disclose any of this,' and the president will back that up."

Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.
Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.
The American people need more from their leaders.

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.
The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.
But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

Cool that renewables have become the cheapest source of energy in the world just as a bunch of reactionary-centrist US pundits have taken up the right-wing "climate vs. cheap energy" framing.

Sales of petrol & diesel cars peaked in 2017 — the same year EVs started their takeoff. In 2020, only 1 in 18 new cars was electric. By 2024, it’s 1 in 2. This year it’s tracking for 60%.
This isn’t a fad — it’s the world’s biggest industrial shift in motion. #EV #Lithium

Tear-gassing tree lined streets is Katrina-level optics and that the White House can’t or won’t recognize it how a president goes from ~40% approval to ~25% in a hurry.
Border patrol agents deployed tear gas on the 3700 block of North Kildare where residents say a landscape worker, a resident, and a woman on a bike were detained. Video from a resident.

The only thing holding our Republic together are our norms.

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.
They’ve had their necks kneeled on.
They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.
