And the Republican Party wonders why so many academics lean left
Burgum: "When the sun goes down, you have a catastrophic failure called sunset and there's no solar energy produced, and yet we're subsidizing these things that are intermittent, unreliable, and expensive. We've gotta get back to base load."

So what's next after today's May Day mobilizations?
On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday.
But real power isn't staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. That's why we're planning a nationwide day of action to say No Kings. 🧵

Johnson is about to do ANOTHER CR to keep govt open until Sept, since he has been unable to pass his own budget.
This was Johnson in NOV 2023: “I’m done with CRs. We are. We’re resolved.”
He has repeatedly broken every promise he made in this clip, & is about to do it again.

A "rebirth"? Yes, as a lost country aligning itself with authoritarianism. I sincerely wonder if that is what MAGA supporters REALLY believed when they voted for Trump.
