Trump’s budget proposal: the wealth of working Americans will be transferred to oligarchs & defense contractors, & the government will no longer provide basic services. It uses war to advance the impoverishment & peonization of everyone but a tiny elite. -Tim Snyder #war&oligarchs&peons

The Next Coup Attempt open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

Trump is surrounded by people who are making money from the war; each day of war strengthens a warmongering lobby with personal access to the president. As the war lengthens, the chance that it will be exploited for a coup attempt increases. Tim Snyder #War&trump

These are preliminary numbers that will get revised over time. Wait and see.

Rep. Masses is not taking his foot off the gas in his efforts regarding the Epstein files.

EU wind and solar overtook fossil fuel power generation in 2025. Solar alone grew by more than 20% in a single year, proving that clean power can scale faster than other technologies. So the challenge now is not generation, but how quickly grids, batteries and flexibility can be deployed.

-Trump & Kushner have billions in business with the Saudis -Eric & Don Jr. are backing a drone-manufacturing DoD contractor -Hegseth's broker tried to invest millions in defense stocks prior to US strikes Trump's inner circle profits from war while everyone else pays the price.

Is there a single American whose reaction to watching their President's address to the country isn't shame or, at a minimum, deep embarrassment?

The Netherlands just launched a platform in the middle of the North Sea that converts wind electricity into green hydrogen fuel without the electricity ever touching land. The NortH2 offshore hydrogen platform sits 200 kilometers off the Dutch coast, directly connected by underwater power cables.

Trump is considering cutting off all aid to Ukraine, unbelievable. I think Trump is a Russian spy! Treason!

He is not worth the end of our Republic, an imperfect but determined two-hundred-and-fifty-year experiment in Democracy having its life and liberty choked out by a sneering, narcissistic, intellectually fetal, morally bankrupt bottom feeder. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/he-is-not-...

We heard the meaningless rambling of a confused, dementia ridden old man last night. He is unfit to lead this country. He must resign or be removed. He’s destroying US society & economy and our allies’. He *must* resign or be removed.

Rather than opening more oil refineries, how about we get more EVs, more charging stations, more renewables, maybe even a super fast train or two. Let’s stop planning a future that includes fossil fuels.

Looked at your 401k or IRA lately?

In a functioning democracy, Donald Trump would be in prison right now.

Being called stupid by the king of stupid is probably not much of an insult.

However poorly you think the war is going, it is worse,” one senior administration official said in recent days. A different senior US official bluntly stated: “Iran can declare victory, too,” adding that “nobody will buy our attempt to sell this as a big win.” #TrumpFailAgain #25thAmendmentTime

Economist Paul Krugman noted this evening that this is essentially an admission of defeat, and Suzanne Maloney, vice president of the Brookings Institution think tank and an expert on Iran, called Trump’s suggestion that he is willing to leave the strait closed “unbelievably irresponsible

Great speech, dude.

More magical thinking by Trump tonight. #Incompetant #Low_Energy #25_Amendment_Time

Starting a war that cuts the world's oil supply by 20% while actively destroying other means of producing clean energy such as wind and solar is just really fucking stupid.

Our right to vote is a sacred part of American democracy — democracy that was founded right here in our Commonwealth. I've protected your right to vote before. And I'll do it again.

That’s one hell of a cover…..

"Everything he does, he does for Putin"

Trump as a modern King Richard III as Shakespeare depicted: limited self-regard, law breaking, pleasure in inflicting pain, compulsive desire to dominate. Pathologically narcissistic & supremely arrogant, expects absolute loyalty but is incapable of gratitude. In Tyrant, by Stephen Greenblatt

The only popular thing Donald Trump will ever do is die.

Every two days…..

In 2025, more power was generated worldwide from renewable energy than from coal, and 91% of new renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuels. Each year nuclear adds only as much net global power capacity as renewables add every two days.

Thing about renewable energy, solar, wind, tidal and hydropower. There’s no blood spilled in its generation. Trump, Netanyahu and Putin are just showing us why it’s more important than ever to switch from fossil fuels.

In a functional democracy, he would offer his resignation tonight.

In what world is it okay for the Defense Secretary to make multi-million dollar investments in defense companies: a) Ever; b) In the run-up to starting a war in the Middle East FT has the scoop: www.ft.com/content/744e... In a functional democracy, he would offer his resignation tonight.

More good news from Germany. Scientists have discovered that they were wrong about how long it takes for solar panels to degrade, and that they can last twice as long as previously expected.

Hungary’s opposition Tisza party pulled ahead of Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz party in many stronghold constituencies. The poll, published by an indep. Hungarian think tank, comes just under 2 wks before Hungarians an election that could end Orbán’s 16 years in office. #Orban_Polling #Hope_For_Hungary

Orban in electoral trouble.

Australia just completed a 4,000-kilometer renewable energy transmission line — the longest clean energy highway ever built — connecting massive outback solar and wind farms directly to coastal cities that need power most.

The call is coming from inside the house.

The president of the United States is advocating for and committing war crimes in our name. He needs to be impeached and removed for his illegal unconstitutional war. Now he is smearing every American as war criminals, and he needs to be removed immediately.!

The President of the United States is a war criminal. Fact, not opinion.

“Let the public service be a proud and lively career” Pres. John F Kennedy

That sums it up pretty well.

BARKLEY: “Some of the stuff that’s happening to immigrants in our country right now is really unfortunate and unfair. Immigrants built this country. We should admire them and respect them.” 🇺🇸

the US is basically aligning itself as the last big petrostate. We’re going to go down with the fossil fuel ship, and China is aligning itself as the first electrostate. David Roberts #RenewablesNow

Thank you for making No Kings 3 the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen. #NoKings

Trump in 2008: Anyone who invades the Middle East under false pretenses should be impeached. Let’s make sure it goes viral here.

A few weeks ago, the DOJ said they were releasing 47,000 more Epstein files “ by the end of the week.” Then they changed it to “fairly soon.“ Well, they only ended up releasing 4 pages of files, and that’s a really long way from equalling 47,000. They want us to forget about them, and we can’t.
