SCOOP: Blaming Political Climate, Trumps Give Up on New Hotels. Plan to build two new mid level brands called SCION and American Idea are shelved. @SteveEder @benprotess nytimes.com/2019/02/14/us/…
Statement to NYT from Trump Org: "We are not going to be doing any new deals for SCION & American Idea. If the right opportunity comes along for a luxury Trump project, we will absolutely consider it but right now we are going to sit back & focus on our existing portfolio."
From our story: “The retrenchment comes as the company faces growing scrutiny from federal prosecutors and congressional investigators, and as a former employee, Michael D. Cohen, heads to prison for multiple crimes.”

How the dispute is resolved has potentially enormous consequences for what one official has called "one of the most seminal public health challenges" of coming decades. with @julieturkewitz nytimes.com/2019/03/14/us/…
Sen Tom Carper, Democrat of Delaware, and the ranking Dem on Senate committee that oversees EPA, has written a letter to EPA going over the debate here. Read that letter here. documentcloud.org/documents/5767…
Many people in the United States might never have heard of PFAS-a chemical used in everything from nonstick pans to firefighting foam. But you know it well. It is likely in your bloodstream. Millions drink PFAS contaminated water.

Listening to Alex Katz lecture at NatGallery
So cool to hear a living artist of his stature talk abt everyone from DeKooning to Jackson Pollock and abt how having confidence as a painter being critical to his art.He calls Abstract Expressionists "AE guys" nga.gov/calendar/lectu…
"All of the sketches are from life. I am just matching the colors," "painting the idea of the light instead of the sensation" As he describes trying to paint twilight.
Lecture is online too. Worth listening to. The art world used to be so much less fragmented. Clashes among schools of painters, because there were definable movements. Almost seems quaint nowadays. Long gone era.

Nearly two years after I was sued--the first time in my career--for a story I did in 2015 about lobbying by GMO & organics industry related to GMO foods, a federal court judge in Florida today dismissed the case against me & The NYT. Here is his opinion. documentcloud.org/documents/5753…
This is the first time I have tweeted about the case, for obvious reasons. Here is the story that was the subject of the lawsuit. nytimes.com/2015/09/06/us/…

I can't figure out whether Suderman is really this naive. Does he truly believe that the GOP's inability to come up with a health plan reflects honest intellectual confusion, and that the party's "experts" are acting in good faith? 1/ nytimes.com/2019/02/07/opi…
Health care isn't that hard an issue. Every advanced country besides the US has universal coverage, so we know how to do it: either government insurance or a highly regulated private system with mandates and subsidies that bring everyone in. 2/
In other words, we already know what a conservative approach to covering America looks like -- basically, it looks like Obamacare. The reason the GOP won't accept that is that IT DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO GET HEALTHCARE 3/

The Trump gang is trying to bury this big national climate report by releasing it mid-afternoon on black Friday.

If you'd prefer to not let them get away with that crap, please retweet.

#ClimateFriday #EndClimateSilence

I'll thread good coverage below.

nca2018.globalchange.gov
Here's the Guardian's coverage: "Heating the planet well beyond [2ºC] would create a 'totally different world... It would be indescribable, it would turn the world upside down in terms of its climate.'"

While not directly about the report, this piece is essential context

"In the past 30 years we’ve seen all 20 of the hottest years ever recorded... 'I’ve never been at a climate conference where people say "that happened slower than I thought it would."'"

NEW: A loose alliance of far-right figures in the US & Europe have been working for years to vilify @GeorgeSoros, but their attacks were mostly confined to the fringe of American politics. Then came DONALD TRUMP. nytimes.com/2018/10/31/us/…
GEORGE SOROS in recent days has told friends that he believes there’s a connection between TRUMP’s rhetoric & the pipe bombs, & even the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting. nytimes.com/2018/10/31/us/…
The threats like the pipe bomb that targeted @GeorgeSoros are “the admission ticket for playing in this arena," says STEVE BANNON. He adds "SOROS is vilified because he is effective ... I only hope one day I’m as effective as he has been — & as vilified." nytimes.com/2018/10/31/us/…

Good questions @RedsforNamesake. If confronting #climate change is your priority, it is imperative to ramp up carbon-free energy asap.

1. NJ will now ramp up renewable energy from 13% in 2017 and 20% by 2020 under old RPS to 35% by 2025 & 50% by 2030. Impressive leadership.
2. To ensure that this new clean energy replaces fossil fuels and contributes to #climate mitigation goals, NJ's new laws also make payments to ensure the continued operation of 3 South Jersey nuclear reactors that currently supply 31% of the state's electricity consumption.
2. Cont.: That measure is essential and ensures that nearly all of the new clean energy growth over the next 12 years builds on top of the fossil-free foundation provided by the state's existing nuclear plants.
