If you care about the rule of law, you should furious that Rep. McIver is forced to defend herself against trumped-up, bogus charges today while so many legitimate criminals are being ignored or pardoned by Trump & his cronies. thehill.com/regulation/cou…
First, it is INSANE that Mike Johnson accused McIver of "inappropriate behavior" and sits silently in the face of this. abcnews.go.com/Politics/girlf…
And that the entire Republican party continues not only to sit in silent cowardice, but also to valorize a guy who pardoned people who attacked the US Capitol and were subsequently re-arrested for threatening to kill members of Congress. cbsnews.com/news/pardoned-…
This is disgusting. And I can GUARANTEE you that lots of dumps are going to come out about lots of Republican electeds who are way too close to the people in these texts. politico.com/news/2025/10/1…
This is a good crowdsourcing project. Suggest you look through for names in your state, see who you can connect them to. For example, there’s this guy.
And there’s this guy. I’ll keep adding as I find more.
Stephen Miller is trying to provoke people into responding to the government's unlawful use of force because he wants his own Reichstag Fire. This is an old, and very dangerous playbook. Take video. Resist peacefully. But don't give these fascists what they want.
Abraham Lincoln famously said that "in this country, public sentiment is everything. With it, nothing can fail. Against it, nothing can succeed." The crimes they are committing are horrific but keep that public sentiment in mind: neither their agenda nor their M.O. is popular.
Miller aspires to be Goebbels. Ridicule him, mock him and RESIST in ways that are public, visible and don't give into a single one of his evil dreams. Turn him into Bull Connor.
If you were under the impression that Trump & Witkoff’s abuse of presidential power with CZ Zhao was the only situation where the Trump family was violating the Constitution’s emoluments clause with a crypto criminal, we need to now move onto Justin Sun. Buckle up:
1. Sun created the Tron blockchain which, according to some estimates has housed the majority of the illicit (read: money laundering) crypto activity. trmlabs.com/resources/blog…
2. I have no idea how you calculate that number (because if you know where all the crime is, shouldn’t you be able to stop it?) But regardless, crypto is almost perfectly designed to do crime and if your leaders aren’t ethical it will. Ethics and Sun seem not to mix.
Just updated my regular look at what power sources are driving the US electric sector on a % basis. Nice cause for optimism. Renewables still growing. Coal use slightly increasing recently but all at the expense of natural gas - which is just economic switching.
e.g, markets are still preferentially deploying and dispatching in least cost order. (In non econ speak: people prefer cheap energy). The push to export LNG has predictably pushed up domestic gas costs giving coal a slight preference on the margin but renewables still win.
Here's a simpler look, just comparing zero carbon to carbon-based generation. We aren't where we need to be yet but the trends are steady.
Here’s a brief story, with receipts about Trump administration corruption and crypto industry collusion that WILL be investigated once the majority of the House is filled with people who take ethics and the Constitution seriously:
1. First, in November 2023, Binance (a large crypto exchange) pled guilty to money laundering and agreed to pay a $4 BILLION fine. Also, their founder CZ Zhao was sentenced to 4 months in prison. justice.gov/archives/opa/p…
2. Read that again. They pled guilty. They acknowledged their guilt. And agreed to pay a lot of money. And their founder and CEO went to jail.
