This only works as a negotiating tactic if all parties acknowledge that Dems care about these people and their livelihoods while the administration does not.

Favorite Robert Redford story:
Mike Nichols telling RR he couldn’t be in The Graduate:

“I said, ‘You can never play a loser.’

Redford said, ‘Of course I can play a loser!’

I said, ‘Have you ever struck out with a girl?’

And he said, ‘What do you mean?’

And he wasn’t joking.”

This administration has ceded the 21st century to China.
Breaking: The value of China’s exports of clean energy technologies hit a new all-time record in July, passing the previous high from March 2023. China exported $18.4 bln worth of solar and wind power equipment, EVs and batteries during the month.

Are the board of directors holding their vote in 2014?
Tesla’s board of directors gave Elon Musk about $30 billion worth of shares on the condition that Musk, the world’s richest person, remains a company executive for at least two more years.
Elon Musk awarded $30 billion in bid to keep him at Tesla for years
The interim deal requires Musk, whose foray into politics has roiled the electric vehicle company, to stay as CEO for two years.

Either she’s dumber than everyone in the world or the whole “horrified but reasonable centrist” thing is an act
Sen. Lisa Murkowski said she feels “cheated” after she won a concession in the tax and spending bill to protect wind and solar projects, only to see the Trump administration issue orders that she said seem designed to quash such projects.
Sen. Murkowski, feeling ‘cheated’ by Trump actions against wind and solar, says she’ll go to bat for Alaska projects
Murkowski won a concession in the Big, Beautiful Bill to protect tax credits for 12 months for wind and solar. But she said a recent presidential order and Interior directive undercut those plans.

Back to his old job I guess. I hope he didn’t do anything to absolutely torch his credibility with his podcast audience
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino has apparently iced out all communications with his DOH colleagues, not having spoken with anyone at the department since Wednesday.

Sources told CNN he is unlikely to stay in this role in the long-term.

Don’t feel like I’ve seen Fox News visit any diners to tell Trump voters to escape their echo chamber, but if there’s a space that leans left these people lose their minds
Apparently it’s weird when you don’t want to spend your whole day arguing with randoms.

But wait a second… the biggest liar in the world promised there would be no Medicaid cuts!!!

🙋🏼‍♂️ Excuse me Mr. Rubio isn’t this famously what you did like a month ago?
Here’s Sec Rubio invoking “free speech rights” in criticizing foreign govs’ domestic policies.

It’s a perfect example of what I call the new values-based foreign policy. Still moralistic, just with different objectives.
