For the first time, new clean energy generation (solar, wind, nuclear) provided more new GWhs then new electricity demand (369Twh). With continued exponential growth and new geothermal coming online at scale in a few years we should sustain this every year.

The U.S. spends more than $400 BILLION annually on prescription drugs.
The Pentagon budget is quickly approaching $1 TRILLION.
Taxpayers hand over $20 BILLION in oil and gas subsidies every year.
But sure, let's ignore the real problems & focus on getting rid of the penny.

I think we might know where all the missing Dem ballots went
This is Ethan Shaotran. He's one of Musk's DOGE takeover hackers
2 yrs ago he won the Berkeley AI Hackathon
But in 2000 won the HackGT7 with a ballot altering program called BallotProof
Here's the deep dive that he couldn't scrub....

Fossil fuel companies have known the catastrophic effects of their products for decades. Ever since then, they have first hidden their findings and then attacked the rest of the scientific community once they reached the same conclusions, in what Dr Kalmus correctly calls the worst crime in history.

The House Dems need to demand a vote to decertify the 14th Amndmnt's prohibition against insurrectionists holding federal office, to enable #TheRapistTraitor to be seated, also per the 14th. Only Congress can allow him to take office. BUT THE GOP DOESN'T HAVE THE 2/3rd majority VOTES TO CARRY IT.

(1/3) If Americans replaced 3 fossil fuel-burning or inefficient electric machines (their furnaces, water heaters, & dryers) with efficient electric heat pump versions, it would lead to:
-3,400 fewer premature deaths in the U.S. each year
-1,300 fewer hospital admissions & ER visits
