Tax them. They already pay nothing, and the rest of us pay a HELL of a lot more than 2 percent. Sorry Newsom, but you're full of shit on this one. www.commondreams.org/news/newsom-...

One old trick in politics is to oppose something possible while calling for something impossible. Example: Here's Gavin Newsom leading the charge for a "national billionaires tax" while he and his paid goons work to kill a state billionaire tax. This allows him to be on both sides for 2028.

"The fact that the ultra-wealthy and billionaire-backed politicians like Gov. Newsom nearly succeeded in killing it is the single best argument for why we need to tax billionaires in the first place."

Before sundown this evening in 1953, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg—ages 35 and 37, respectively—were executed by electric chair at Sing Sing Prison in Ossining, New York, after being convicted of espionage in 1951 for providing top secret atomic bomb design information to the Soviet Union during WWII.

The employees says the city should consider requiring renewable sources of power, banning the use of NDAs between the city and developers & limiting public subsidies. In addition to apologizing to its employees, maybe Amazon could explain why it doesn't support these policies.

Amazon told 3 employees they were being investigated for testifying before the Seattle City Council about data center harms. It claims, absurdly, they were misrepresenting themselves as spokespeople for the company. Amazon Employees for Climate Justice says it's illegal retaliation for free speech.

Ammar Campa-Najjar failed to advance to the runoff in his CA-48 House primary. Having run and lost three other races since 2018 (two for the House, one for mayor), he says in a statement today that his “political career is permanently over.”

Had a dream last night about a sudden onset of a life altering climate shift, deeply freezing weather. Hence the recent AMOC news posted below.

“But PG&E has spent nearly $10 million on a negative advertising campaign against leading Democratic candidate Tom Steyer. “...former Attorney General Xavier Becerra – has received significant campaign contributions from the three California investor-owned utilities over the course of his career.”

More great news.

Good reporting in NY Times today. New York is leading in our innovative approach to greenhouse gas accounting, and Gov. Hochul is wrong to retrench on that in the budget negotiations. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/26/n...

Unlike most other rockets, the fuel used by Blue Origin is liquefied natural gas (LNG). LNG can be pretty explosive, as this "anomaly" demonstrated www.theguardian.com/science/2026...

Arguably, the biggest loser in NY's budget deal is the climate. Hochul tossed climate concerns & energy affordability out the window with her "all-of-the-above" energy approach, endorsing nuclear & continued reliance on natural gas. @sarbetter.bsky.social nystateofpolitics.com/state-of-pol...

This is very cool. This type of support for trans people should be the bare minimum. It's really a shame that Steyer is the only one in the California governor's race willing to stand up for trans people like this.

It’s truly astonishing to see how comprehensively the US government is tearing down every part of the system that has made it up until now a world-leading power in science, research, and technological development. The entire world will suffer from this wanton destruction.

While speaking at the West Point commencement, Trump told the graduates that "under Biden, no one wanted to join the military." Every last member of the West Point class of 2026 joined the military under Biden, but Trump is too stupid, or too far gone with dementia, to understand that.

Good news for Michigan. That reminds me of this: “Bill Gates: Help clean up your toxic St. Louis dump” #RepublicServices #WestLakeLandfill #SuperfundSite #ManhattanProject #ColdwaterCreekContamination #BridgetonLandfill #UndergroundFire

I'll say this about Governor Newsom and CARB Chair Lauren Sanchez: At least Governor Hochul had to decency to say she wanted to roll back New York's climate laws in public. Here in California we do the same in private and call it climate leadership.

I was on the fence about Steyer (never for Becerra, just the billionaire thing) but today’s CARB‘s horrible Big Oil give away pushed me over the edge. Steyer may be a billionaire but at least he fucking cares about climate and we need someone who will reverse shit like this (Gov appoints CARB board)
