By 2028, AI data centers will consume as much electricity as half to two-thirds of every nuclear plant in America. The AI companies aren’t paying for the new power plants to run them. You are. open.substack.com/pub/gregjacz...

The complete mismanagement of the federal government is more than just a DC problem. Most feds work outside DC, helping to keep people safe. In Congress, I'll fight for workers in DC and across the country because the country needs a robust federal workforce. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/06/c...

I'll focus on exempting D.C. residents from federal income tax, It's the key way that we can generate the discussion nationally around the lack of statehood in D.C. and the injustice that that creates. wjla.com/news/electio...

Another example of DC subject to the whims of a maliciously mercurial president harming our welfare.

700,000 DC residents pay full federal income taxes. We get zero votes in Congress. I have a plan to change that. Rank Greg Jaczko on June 16. #gregjaczko4dc #dcdelegate #dcstatehood #notaxationwithoutrepresentation #notaxationuntilrepresentation

The Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act. DC residents already can’t vote in Congress. This is exactly why statehood can’t wait.

When the President abuses his power and Congress looks the other way, DC pays the price. I’m running because that has to change. #gregjaczko4dc #dcdelegate #congress

Just published a full breakdown of DC’s electricity crisis and the four fixes that would actually lower your bill. gregjaczko.substack.com/p/naturally-...

I take this personally. Not only because I’m a scientist, but because I’ve sat in these rooms. Firing the entire National Science Board by email isn’t just bad policy. It’s the removal of independent expertise. I’ve seen where that leads.

At least 15 defense officials have abruptly left or been pushed out of their jobs under Trump 2.0, and nerves are charged inside the Pentagon over who gets axed next. “It feels so much like petty, high-school or middle-school drama.”

April 16, 1862: over 3,100 enslaved people in DC were freed, nine months before the Emancipation Proclamation. DC led the nation. Today we honor them and keep fighting injustice in our time. #DCEmancipationDay #dc #freedom

No Taxes Until Representation. D.C. pays more per capita in federal taxes than anywhere in America and with zero votes in Congress. We’ve been civil long enough. It’s time to stop being obedient. gregjaczko.substack.com/p/naturally-... #notaxationuntilrepresentation

DC Pays More Than Almost Any State And Has Zero Say in Congress (Greg Ja... youtu.be/Yf44c4bODhA?... @dcnewsnow.bsky.social @thehill.com

Just wrapped up on @thehill.com and @dcnewsnow.bsky.social. Stay tuned!

Tomorrow morning I’ll be on Sunrise on @thehill.com. No income taxes until we have statehood and what’s really driving DC’s rising cost of living.

How have we normalized the insane comments of the Trump -- the President of the United States???? Congress needs to use the powers DEMANDED -- not suggested or offered -- by the Constitution to remove Trump from office.

They were lying? No. This is my shocked face.

US 2025 battery deployment skyrocketed 52% by MW and 40% by MWh, compared to 2024! Annual deployment nearly quadrupled since 2022. Batteries are keys to firming solar and wind and increasing grid reliability. They are now displacing gas peakers. insideclimatenews.org/news/0204202... #energysky

Every so often—for no particular reason—I feel compelled to post a gift link to the 11,000-word article I published in @theatlantic.com seven years ago about Donald Trump's mental disorders and how they rendered him unfit to serve as president. {gift link} www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Speculation is building around who could replace Mike Johnson as Republicans’ leader in the House if and when the party finds itself in the minority. And there are already four names on the theoretical shortlist, including a dark horse candidate... puck.news/if-the-gop-l...

I knew municipal utilities generally provide lower electricity prices than investor-owned monopoly utilities, but I had no idea the difference was *this stark* in California. No wonder CA electeds are pushing to make municipalization easier and cheaper. energyathaas.wordpress.com/2026/03/09/t...

Trump didn't miscalculate. He didn't CALCULATE. Experts, processes, meetings exist to analyze these actions. Trump has abandoned them in favor of a ballroom in Mar A Lago. He's fired or forced out experts & doesn't listen to the ones remaining. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/u...

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... Time for DC residents to do the same. no representation -- no taxes

Time to sue to stop the war. Trump has no more authority to wage war than to impose tariffs. The Constitution gave Congress war authority. Absent congressional action, no war. not, war until Congress says stop. Up to the Courts, again, to rein in the POTUS.

Yet more absurdity to this war. To whom is Iran supposed to surrender? The United States? Israel? Then we or they will rule Iran, a country of 90 million people. www.cnbc.com/2026/03/06/t...

3) This war is unfounded. With no voting rep in Congress we’ll borrow more or divert our tax #$S to this war and not the needs of the least powerful in DC. If DC isn’t a state no more federal income taxes from us. Enough.

1) In DC families struggling with high electricity prices driven in part by rising nat gas prices will likely see impacts to domestic nat gas prices as ME supplies are constrained by war. 2) thousands of Washingtonians serve in the military risking their lives with no coherent justification …

It’s easy to think the war in Iran is not important for DC. It is and I don’t support it. The president must seek approval from Congress. Wars have consequences. Why? …

Trump lies about everything and this confirms reporting that stockpiles are likely running low. He only responds to truth with lies.

23.9% in the district!

A map of electricity bill pain in the Trump era: insideclimatenews.org/news/0203202...

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.

While it is tempting to acquiesce when Trump illegally attacks a regime like Iran, allowing him to start wars anywhere is reckless & dangerous. What will stop him from invading Canada or Greenland next? Ds & Rs in Congress must deny Trump the authority for war until he presents a case for it.

Here’s what I don’t understand. The illegal Trump tariffs were largely, ultimately paid by consumers. Importers added the fee which producers likely applied indirectly or directly to consumers. So consumers should be suing to recover the tariffs not companies. Class action?

I genuinely don't understand how she "regretfully informed David Solomon of [her] intention to step down". Regretfully is backward looking. I think she means, "I regretfully misrepresented my relationship with Epstein, therefore I informed...." www.cnn.com/2026/02/12/p...

Add "Not needing an ACL" to the list of things that separate elite athletes from the rest of us. Amazing! www.cnn.com/2026/02/06/s...

the $75 million Jeff Bezos set on fire for that Melania propaganda piece could have funded most independent newsrooms for literally decades

What is happening at the @washingtonpost.com is 100% the fault of Jeff Bezos. He has destroyed the reputation of the post through his actions during the election, antagonized the papers audience and has hired useless stooges to implement his destruction. This is no longer incompetence but intention.

If you are a SpaceX investor you now own a social media platform known as a haven for white supremacy & an AI platform known for generating non-consensual sexual images. I suppose Musk's dream of space based AI compute centers is to escape any control. Great deal if you are a misogynistic, racist.

Someone please make this make sense to me. AI needs things we can't have on earth. So we need space data centers. WTF??? Maybe we just don't need the AI? Occam's razor, maybe?

admin position is that any crossing outside port of entry is criminal. So this reduces nothing. more smoke screen to bamboozle Senate Dems. Plus ICE/CBP just ignore it anyway.

New on @puck.news Susan Collins announced today that Noem has "ended" ICE operations in Maine. This was a crucial victory for her as ICE is the latest of a long list of political headaches as she is expected to gear up for another reelection bid. puck.news/inside-susan...

Perhaps @senatedemocrats.bsky.social might want to pivot to impeaching Trump and Vance instead of asking for ICE reforms that ICE will just ignore.

Direct attention away from Trump. He is a monster who will never change. He lies abut reform. Focus on his enablers & defenders in Congress. I think enough can be convinced to impeach and remove him and Vance.

The Battle of Minneapolis is far from over. But Trump... flinched. The People are doing what the law and the Democrats cannot: defending thier rights and the rights of others. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/acti...

Hey @chmnmendelson.bsky.social DC needs alternate side parking during snow emergencies. 1st night one side of a street is closed. 2nd it switches. Then plows clear the whole street rather than a strip down the middle which they replow to no effect. Open garages for free to get cars off roads.

It seems clear Trump and Vance are reacting to the negative reaction to the ICE killing, but not to the killing itself. Trump and Vance immediately defended ICE and will continue to demonize protestors. Removing ICE and CBP leaders may change tactics slightly but not strategy.

I think that may be true. I’m shocked that the calls for impeachment are staying mostly focused on DHS and not the president overseeing the whole thing.

The march to fascism may pause or slow down briefly, but it doesn't end until Trump and his minions are totally and completely gone. He must be impeached and removed.
