Same. HUGE gap between experts & everyone else. This was already expert consensus 2 years ago. Now? Trump's horrible & evil war have wrecked the perception of oil & gas as stable and cheap in the decade when solar, wind, batteries, EVs are SURGING worldwide www.phenomenalworld.org/analysis/daw...

Top 10 reasons why Democrats need to talk about climate change now: 🧵

“We moved 4.5 million people off SNAP” is a crazy way to say you took food away from 4.5 million people, mostly needy families. And also crazy to think this works for them politically!

The adoption of EVs in Africa is great & illustrates the insanity of US policy to push far more expensive ICE vehicles, which results in (1) people spending 20-40K more for fuel than electricity over 15y (2) US ceding vehicle market to other countries. Africa adopts EVs abcnews.com/Business/wir...

No victories on "Victory Day." Boy, that's gotta hurt.

Here are some of the most dramatic and powerful examples of how Black Americans — from elected officials to ordinary voters — have responded to the wave of GOP gerrymanders. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

End the data centers, now. Don't use AI and don't support companies that tout it.

A “SCIENCE IS COOL. REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO DESTROY IT” campaign seems…. smart? yougovamerica.substack.com/p/which-cele...

I don’t know whether Ukraine will try to attack the Moscow parade today. But that after more than 4 years of the Russian war against Ukraine the Russian president is afraid of attacks against Moscow is a victory for Ukraine.

⚡️US falls below Russia in survey of global perceptions. The global perception of the United States has fallen for a third consecutive year, now ranking several spots behind Russia, a survey commissioned by the Alliance of Democracies Foundations revealed on May 7.

JUST IN: Consumer confidence hit a 50-year low. And it's still dropping. Americans feel WORSE about the economy right now than during the 2008 financial crisis. Worse than COVID. Worse than the 1970s. Think about that.

End AI. Just stop it. Don't use it. Don't invest it. Don't support it.

This is a scandal, you guys. This should be front page news across the entire US and getting nonstop play on the news. Trump is collaborating with a country of documented election interference. The entire administration and the Supreme Court are- www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

ICE concentration camps are deadly. Already in 2026, 18 people have died in detention — roughly 1 person every week. They need to be shut down. Instead, the GOP is trying to give ICE and Border Patrol up to $70 billion more.

Our government is murdering on multiple fronts: innocents abroad who depend on the United States of America for vital healthcare services, folks on fishing boats, Iranian children, former Obamacare recipients, Ukrainians defenseless against a regime we long opposed, the unvaccinated, and now:

Microsoft is considering ditching its commitment to match its hourly electricity use with renewable energy purchases by 2030. It's in a race with the other hyperscalers to power up energy-guzzling AI data centers as fast as possible, so apparently a livable climate is no longer a priority.

Lee Zeldin used to talk publicly about the importance of adapting to oncoming climate change. Now all efforts at adaptation are getting shut down.

This is not a party that believes in democracy.

“The dismantling of USAID, according to models from Boston University epidemiologist Brooke Nichols, “has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children,” Gawande wrote.” hsph.harvard.edu/news/usaid-s...

Elite cues matter. “Interestingly, education and scientific literacy didn’t play any role whatsoever. And that’s, again, contrary to what many people would believe. So it’s not that these people are uneducated. It is simply that ideologies are taking over.

Ukrainian housewife. ✊ Europeans are cowards for forcing Ukrainians to fight and die alone in defense of all Europe against Russia.

DESPITE Trump’s best efforts the solar revolution is here and walking all over him. “US solar generation in 2025 was a stunning 28% higher than in 2024. …. Solar generation in a single month (July 2025) was more than a full year’s worth of solar generation just a decade ago.”

In December, SCOTUS stayed a district court ruling blocking TX from using its new maps because the lower court ruled "on the eve of an election." That district court ruling was issued 15 weeks before the TX primaries. Callais was issued *17 days* before the LA primaries.

The U.S. is on track to lose more immigrants than it gains in 2026. It could impact taxes, disrupt labor markets and more.

By popular (?) demand, I've updated (and cleaned up) my suffrage and citizenship timeline with recent events and some additional clarifications. Feedback welcome! I will make the file available on my website (christinawolbrecht.com) by COB.

This is impoundment. It's illegal (per the 1974 Impoundment Control Act) and unconstitutional (per common interpretation of Article I Section 8 Clause 1). The remedy is impeachment. Indeed, this IS what Trump was impeached for the first time around. It would be nice to have a functioning Congress.

Of all the freedoms hanging in the balance, none is more precious than the right to vote.

thank you sam alito for ending the unconstitutional racial discrimination against white conservatives and allowing them to obliterate federal representation for as many black people as they can manage, as the reconstruction congress intended

DOJ identified 4 green card holders who voted in 2024 in NJ, or 0.00006% of total votes. As I wrote in 2024, noncitizen voting remains extraordinarily rare. Audits find only a tiny handful of cases, most often green card holders who got bad advice from others.

By gutting the Voting Rights Act, the Supreme Court is killing the Second Reconstruction. The first Reconstruction shows how Congress should respond. Me and Daphna Renan in the NYT on the tools we have to save democracy from a hostile Court.

This is one of the most quietly revolutionary things any city can do to improve kids' lives & outcomes. If you genuinely care about kids having access to education or safe after school spaces & activities, then fund your libraries, staff your libraries, & make every public school ID a library card.

Pay attention to what Rep. Crow uncovered here: Hegseth is advised by a personal friend who sidestepped the confirmation, disclosure, and security clearance process and continues to work as a consultant to undisclosed clients who may present a serious conflict of interest.

It cost me $177 to renew my driver license today. Requiring certain ID to vote without making that ID easy, accessible, and free is 100% a poll tax.

I do frequently wonder what the average citizen of the U.S. knows about Reconstruction. As Du Bois would later point out, the backlash of lost cause propaganda didn’t just create mass disinformation about the civil war itself, but about the opening for actual democracy that briefly came after it.
