@elonmusk #VirtualPowerPlant Participant here: Powerwall performed flawlessly in SFBlackout2025 providing 11H continuous output. That’s the good news. OTOH: Why not widen deployment of Tesla Powershare vehicle-to-home (V2H) to entire fleet ASAP to ameliorate in future blackouts??

Watch @margbrennan interview w/ @StateSPEHA entirety: More info on #FreeAustinTice than previously known: 1. US believes Syria held US newsman at ‘some point’ in unprecedented 12 years as hostage. 2. US officials (@FBI) visited Syrian prison to gather evidence last week 1/
Margaret Brennan@margbrennan

Majd Kamalmaz and Austin Tice went missing in Syria as did other US citizens during the past 13 years of war. @StateSPEHA went on the ground in Syria this past week to look for them. He shared details with us. Here is his full interview including excerpts that did not air on @FaceTheNation

"Today we conducted a joint search of a facility that we all thought would have some sort of relation to Austin Tice. So, I understand, of course their past, but what I can tell you is that right now they're being helpful in the search for Austin," @StateSPEHA told us about the physical search the US and HTS conducted of one of Assad's prisons where Austin Tice might have been held in Syria.
CBS Evening News with Tony Dokoupil@CBSEveningNews

U.S. officials, with cooperation from the Syrian-rebel group HTS, searched a facility in Syria tied to dictator Bashar al-Assad's network of 40 secret prisons, believed to hold clues in the 12-year search for missing American journalist Austin Tice. More this Sunday on @FacetheNation with @Margbrennan.

Let's stay focused and take action. Austin Tice has been missing for 12 years. NOW is the time to act! ✍️ Contact your senators TODAY. Demand they work with @POTUS to #FreeAustinTice and #BringAustinHome from #Syria. Keep up the pressure. Austin’s family needs him home NOW.

Thank you @StateSPEHA @FBIWFO @POTUS @SecBlinken and #USGOV for efforts: this photo is a graphic reminder of the 12 years that @FreeAustinTice has been held in Syria for doing his job: journalism. Today would be a great day to #FreeAustinTice.

@TheEconomist : Praise - (or a pay raise?) - to the headline-writer of this week’s Britain section responsible for this deft wordplay: Apologies to Dorothy L. Sayers, but one is simply ‘Awed. Metered Whimsy!’

🚨 URGENT: Austin Tice, an American citizen and Marine from Texas, has been held in Syria for over 12 years. President Biden said the U.S. thinks he is alive. We need to do everything possible to bring him home. The @StateDept and @FBI are offering rewards for tips that lead to his return. Please help us bring Austin home.

Houston-native Austin Tice has been held captive in Syria for 12 long years. As chaotic events unfold in Syria, we have an opportunity—and responsibility—to locate and bring him home. I urge anyone with information on his whereabouts to share with the FBI or State Dept. It’s long past time Austin returned to his family in the U.S.

Austin Tice's brother and sister just spoke with @JohnBerman. Asked if there's new information, they told him: "We know that Austin is alive and we know Austin is in Syria." The prison releases and family reunions they're seeing in Syria is giving them hope.
