Trump has really, seriously, frighteningly lost his mind.
It won’t happen soon, but if Trump continues to deteriorate, Republicans won’t have any alternative but to remove him from office. Neither will America. robertreich.substack.com/p/trump-has-really-serio...
A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustn’t let this war do so.
The richest 0.1 percent of the global population are hiding nearly $3 trillion in offshore accounts to evade taxes — more than the wealth held by the entire bottom half of humanity.
It would take about $93 billion per year to eradicate extreme hunger by 2030.
Taxing the rich is a global necessity.
Happy National Puppy Day!

Big news from #Maine! 🎉
Plug-in #solar bill LD 1370 just passed the Maine #Senate with a strong 25-8 #bipartisan vote and it's headed to the House!
The bill would make plug-in solar accessible to more #Mainers!
Great Intersolar panel moderated by @sammyroth.bsky.social.
Would’ve loved to see more on DER + VPP progress lowering bills, boosting reliability, and strengthening resilience. Local solar + storage are working.
Arnab Pal was right: we need strong policies, proposals, and advocacy. Let’s be ready.
Affordability isn’t just a progressive talking point, it’s about making smart choices and meeting the needs of the communities we serve! Building a clean energy future is the most just, cost effective path; it’s also the way forward to a robust, resilient energy system for the modern economy
“The reason the coal industry is in long-term decline is that #coal is simply no longer an economic resource for electricity generation compared to cheaper alternatives, particularly renewable resources like wind and solar,” said AV Executive Director Tom Cormons. https://loom.ly/W0t0Q4o
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has finalized its repeal of the endangerment finding and the rollback of climate emissions standards for light, medium and heavy-duty vehicles. By doing so, the EPA is rejecting settled law and science to benefit polluters.
America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
🏡 Thinking about cutting costs and boosting comfort at home? You should consider getting a home energy audit — a game changer for finding out how your house is using and losing energy.

Truth is we are moving in the wrong direction and Sierra Club has the receipts.
#Indiana needs more #power than ever, with #energy demand growing faster than it has in decades. But we can meet this demand with clean, local solutions!
#Solar is one of the cheapest and fastest energy sources to add to the grid.

Solar for All is under attack. This $7B program is meant to expand clean energy access for nearly 1M families. The EPA is trying to cancel it. We joined partners in sending letters to AGs in 21 states urging them to fight back. Read the letters and take action: votesolar.org/solar-for-al...
Local solar and batteries are a no-regrets response!
Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.
It doesn't have to be this way.
Applaud Gov Stein’s veto, but the fight is obviously not over.
You know, 4 out of 3 people don’t understand statistics…..
Collateral damage? This won’t hurt just the communities deprived of the investment. We all lose because the grid doesn’t get these flexible resource just when we need them.

The fact remains that solar panels remain the cheapest and most easily deployable technologies available to serve the ever-hungry U.S. power grid.

🚨 The EPA is preparing to cancel $7 billion in grants awarded through the Solar for All program, which helps low‑ and moderate‑income households access affordable solar solutions.

I would say that this is the perfect example of their incompetence and shortsightedness, but then I realize that would be unfair to all the other examples who seem to be vying for the title.
www.canarymedia.com/articles/vir... We do have pathways for progress towards an affordable, clean and stable electric grid, even under these circumstances.
My tastebuds are still recovering from channeling my inner Sean Evans at the Vote Solar, CSIS after-party. Served up some scorching hot takes on solar solutions, and let's just say, the wings weren't the only things bringing the heat. Huge thanks to our amazing partners and supporters🌶️
