Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Missouri is the only state in the nation to tax income, but not capital gains.
We are also ranked 50th in the nation for education funding.

Republicans are throwing a tantrum because Californians stood up to Donald Trump's election-rigging scheme.
Cry harder.

Mike Johnson: “I'll make a comment about the tragedy in California last night…It's just a blatant example of Gavin Newsom's immoral leadership and the fact that they will do anything to try to rig the system to win.”

I listened to several younger Democrats running for office in Iowa last weekend, and I’m telling you, Iowa and other states in the heartland have had enough.
2026 is going to be hard on Republicans, which is why they are going to try to limit voting. Pay attention.

If the Citrus Caesar can withhold funding to cities that vote against him, does that mean I can withhold paying income tax to a Republican administration?

South Korea has mandated solar canopies for large parking lots. It's a no-brainer. We could offer firms incentives to do it here, or they could just friggin' do it! (H/t @assaadrazzouk.bsky.social)

What if Walmart turned its parking lots into solar farms?

The people on the right getting mad at Tucker Carlson for hosting Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes on his podcast don’t seem to have gotten mad at all at Donald Trump for hosting Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes at his home for dinner. Funny that.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

These disgustingly filthy luxurious super yachts of the super rich is all the proof I need to justify much higher income taxes and a significant wealth tax! And a luxury yacht tax at 30 percent per year?
Seriously in a society where people are losing their SNAP benefits and ACA premium subsidies!

These tech billionaires have the largest superyachts
When it comes to superyachts, the bigger the better. These are the largest yachts owned by tech billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg.

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.
I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.
If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.
