Much of the funding for the protests by far-left Americans comes from the sale of Iranian oil of course which is another indication that the far-left are climate science deniers sadly.

JD Vance praised by Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov: 'He stands for peace, for cessation of aid [to Ukraine]. We can only welcome this because, in fact, it is necessary to stop pumping Ukraine with weapons, and the war will end.

Please refer to Trump's New York 34 felony convictions as the Election Interference case as opposed to a Hush Money crime.

In big news that more Americans and others should know about, but will most likely get hardly any attention since that orange chump sucks up all the oxygen in the mediasphere, Dimitri Simes' home in Virginia was searched by the FBI today.

Dimitri Simes was involved in arranging Donald Trump's April 27, 2016, speech at the Mayflower Hotel. In the speech, Trump outlined his vision for American foreign policy and called for greater cooperation with Russia.

The US Public Interest Research Group (US PIRG), a federation of public interest advocacy groups, has asked the FCC to halt low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite launches until the environmental consequences of space pollution can be better managed.

If you throw out 2019 numbers trying to tar Joe Biden with being in bed with the fossil fuel industry and you scoffed at the efforts he's making to transition the U.S. economy away from fossil fuels than you are working to try to get Republicans back into power.

That seems like a simple thing anyone should be able to see, but I suppose it is difficult for some uneducated trolls to figure out.

In support of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda, the U.S. Department of Energy today announced $10.2 million for four projects that will advance cost effective and environmentally responsible processes to produce and refine critical minerals and materials here in the United States. The funding, provided by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, will help meet the growing demand for critical minerals and materials reducing our dependence on offshore supplies.

Imagine cutting your monthly electric bill while powering your home with clean energy — all without installing a single solar panel on your roof.

Sound too good to be true? Enter community solar, the game-changing solution making solar energy accessible and affordable for everyone.

I haven't seen much posted on the fact that Ukrainian forces took control of the last remaining transit hub for Russian gas into Europe.

Well, natural gas prices in Europe hit their highest level of the year this week now.

Fitch Ratings noted that because of full storage it “expect[s] any price impact resulting from Ukraine’s incursion into the Kursk region to be short-lived.”

Still, it is good since will encourage faster transition away from fossil fuels.

Even though Tesla sales are falling because of ELoon, fully-electric vehicles had 8.0% market share in Q2 2024.

U.S. electric vehicle sales in Q2 2024 totaled 330,463 (up 22.9% from Q1 2024, and up 11.3% year-over-year).

So, let's look at China. It took them about three years to go from 9% to over 50%.

So, it's easy to see why the fossil fuel industry is fighting so hard to put the GOP back into power.

Do you think that Putin is going to bring the Wagner mercenaries back into Russia from Africa considering that the last time they were in Russia the marched on Moscow?

I don't know if I'm enjoying watching Russia getting invaded too much, but I have to admit that it is quite enjoyable.

I hope that everyone appreciates what an historic period we're living through now.

So yeah, I hear that Russians are considering adopting a new flag.

I would like a breakdown of the number of Republicans versus Democrats our major legacy media highly-paid "journalists" give airtime to.

Kaitlan Collins in particular seems to have over twice as many Republicans on her show as she does Democrats.

@w7voa
The Washington Post is complicit in anything that happens on Xitter because they still post their content on that foul site sadly.

@rlstone4dems @GottaLaff
I'm so psyched that Tim Walz didn't go help contribute to Bush Junior's debacle in Iraq. I wish that more soldiers had of decided to not follow that ignoramus into a losing war over there.

@barney @rlstone4dems @GottaLaff
You do not hold the Russian soldiers at all accountable for following Putin's orders?

Oh well, you are of course welcome to your opinions.

Try not to forget that the USA is involved in two+ wars too during this campaign.

Russian President Vladimir Putin broke his silence on Wednesday on Ukraine's cross-border armored assaults into the Kursk region of western Russia, calling the operation a "large-scale provocation."

Putin said he would meet with members of the defense ministry, Federal Security Service, border guards and his General Staff to discuss the situation.

Poor Putin now doesn't think invading a NATO ally was a good idea

Democrats deliver!

This is the first time in almost 40 years EPA has taken this type of emergency action, following several years of unprecedented efforts by the Biden-Harris Administration to require the submission of long-overdue data and then assess and address the risk this pesticide poses.

Don't neglect that #Project2025 would stop the Environmental Protection Agency from protecting the environment!

New England is finally saying goodbye to its last coal-fired power plant. Granite Shore Power has announced it’s shutting down the Merrimack Station in New Hampshire by June 2028 – a move that comes after years of protests and lawsuits against the plant.

New Hampshire will be the 16th state in the U.S. to go coal-free – with New England being the second coal-free region in the country.
