The claim that ICE only goes after criminals is a lie. Their net catches green card holders, valid visa holders, legal asylum seekers, and American citizens. If playing by the rules still gets you put in a cage, the system isn’t broken; it’s fascist.

For years, the biggest criticism of renewables was simple: “What happens when the sun isn’t shining?” The answer is increasingly: battery storage. 24/7 solar power is no longer theoretical. In some places, it is becoming economic reality.

Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with 24GW/120GWh of storage (5 hrs at av demand) Results: Last week: 100.0% RE Last 246 weeks: 98.7% RE (1/5)

If USA suspends the gas tax, then to every driver that has accused cyclists of not paying for our share of the roads.... I'd like to laugh directly into your face.

Tankies: In just a few weeks Israel has killed far more civilians than Russia did in 2+ years Prez: Posts pic of satellite images of mass graves outside Mariupol & numerous pics of cities wiped off the earth OMG you're pro Israel No. I'm pro facts & evidence & you're obviously being an idiot.

It's official: the Orbán era is over (he's been in power since 2010). Péter Magyar is now Hungary’s Prime Minister.

Let me get this straight. Red states can have a governor unilaterally suspend primaries, and GOP legislators draw maps without voter consent. But Virginia runs the most robust democratic process possible, a constitutional amendment via referendum, and the court throws it away?

Original text: He should live long enough to witness his inevitable devastating loss in the midterms, be held accountable for his unprecedented corruption, impeached, convicted & humiliated for his countless crimes. Long enough to realize he'll be disgraced in the history books, forevermore.

I got followed by an AI bot. First one I've seen do this outside Twitter. I'm not posting about most of the subjects it claims to concentrate on. Nor am I interested in being training data. I guess since I can't force an unfollow like on Twitter, BLOCK it is

SEN. OLIVER: “@GovBillLee called a special session next week to cheat. Let’s be real clear. Republicans in Tennessee are doing the bidding of that man in the White House because he wants to hold on to power. MEMPHIS is 1 of the Blackest cities… they’re about to take their seat.”

Almost 100% of new cars sold in Norway last year were electric. Not just because of oil wealth. Because of carbon taxes, EV incentives, and thirty years of consistent policy. New newsletter: Norway: The World's Most Instructive Energy Paradox janrosenow.substack.com/p/norway-the...

This should never be considered normal.

“I would, however, focus more on the battlefield itself rather than long-range strikes. The largest mass killing of the enemy in the history of mankind is taking place in this room.” — Commander Robert Brovdi, callsign ‘Madyar’ Video: BBC

Vaccines were once so uncontroversial that McDonald’s restaurants put the childhood immunization schedule on their tray liners. Now, as the U.S. government sows doubt, preventable diseases could come roaring back.

Get your kids vaccinated you stupid fucks.

Det Motvind og Rødt ikke forteller deg. Det er helt uansvarlig i dagens situasjon at vi ikke bygger ut fornybar kraft i høyt tempo. Vi kan ikke vente på en høyst usikker kjernekraftteknologi og tidslinje, det må skje nå. Da er det bl.a vind og sol som gjelder. This is not a drill.

A perfect "This you?"

They think you're stupid.

“Reform plagued by vetting issues” Candidates found to have “grotesque” views. Come on. It’s not the vetting, is it. It’s the party. Whatever they do, they’ll always attract the racists, homophobes, misogynists and haters. Because that’s Farage. That’s Reform. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Palantir’s deranged manifesto shows why it should be nowhere near our public services. This is not a normal company, it's Trump's favourite tech firm and a danger to our NHS.

Netanyahu's Israeli government claims that "it's too late" despite being notified of the illicit cargo weeks in advance of the ship's arrival

Sen. Warnock is right: Republicans found $200 billion for a war in Iran overnight. But for 25 million uninsured Americans? Nothing. No urgency. No bill. No vote. They fund what they value. And they just told you exactly what that is. #USDemocracy #MomSky #HealthcareNotTrumpsWar

The drone it self retails at $500 per unit & we are only getting a €40 bid for a video of its 1st & only journey. We need to find the people who want this sort of thing Please re-post, they are out there!

To conservatives who’ve objected when some of us have suggested Trump is a fascist, and who’ve complained when some us point out that much of real existing American conservatism has devolved into fascism, if you’re silent about Trump’s threat of genocide you’re proving the point you’ve objected to.

in a stunning victory, Donald Trump has forced the Iranian government to profit tens of billions of dollars a year against their will

"Russia wants territories they haven't been able to conquer around the negotiation table. it's the [Putin] playbook: demanding something that has never been theirs. this is a trap we should not fall into" @kajakallas.bsky.social via @kateinkharkiv.bsky.social on the other place

Wild Hornets were on PBS NewsHour!🐝 "This STING drone is a perfect example of the asymmetric warfare that Ukrainians excel at. "It costs between $1,300 and $2,200—and it goes up against Iranian and russian Shahed drones that cost around $50,000 to make." www.pbs.org/newshour/sho... /1

Excellent summary of how it is in no importing nation's interests to continue the dependency on fossil fuels. Great comment to note: "Building up more domestic production does not insulate an economy from a global price shock." www.electrotech-revolution.com/p/the-energy...

6/7 No one deserves war, but this PR collapse could not have happened to a more deserving place. Behind the shiny skyscrapers, it is a society built on modern slavery and extreme exploitation. It is also an ecological disaster masquerading as a city of the future

Sen Mark Warner stunning words after briefing from Trump regime: "Let's bc clear. There was no imminent threat to the United States by the Iranians. There was a threat to Israel. If we equate a threat to Israel as the equivalent of an imminent threat to the US, then we are in uncharted territory."

I will, going forward, use "Iran State" when discussing Iranian State actions. I try to protect the innocent whenever I can, and I try to learn fast.
