OK, so we're paying a billion to get out of a contract that will lower energy costs in the long run.

The Trump admin will pay $1 billion to a French company to walk away from two U.S. offshore wind leases. The admin says it's focusing, instead, on investments in fossil fuel projects.

The key is to find a candidate who moderates think is a moderate and progressives think is a progressive

Obama opposed the Iraq War when most Dem leaders were for it, which earned him enormous progressive cred in his 2008 campaign even while he was pretty modded out on other issues. The 2028 parallel would be a non-leftist who breaks left on Israel. slowboring.com/p/the-obama-of…

The correct choice is Sara Rodriguez.
Distant 2nd: Mandela Barnes (I would still wager as a “leans” on him beating Tom Tiffany).
After that we’re playing with serious fire.

Great to be with former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson at the University of Wisconsin tonight.

Woke scolding & language policing from Donald Trump.

Trump: "Democrats call this period of time a war. We call it a military operation."

@JavierBlas But do we actually believe anything that comes out of the mouths of US cabinet members?
English
US Energy Secretary Chris Wright says the US flow rate from the SPR exchange would amount to be 1.0-1.5m b/d and says the total IEA release would come close to 3m b/d.
(Those are the first flow rates estimates publicly discussed since the IEA/SPR action was announced)

@Zprtr1 @LurkerBored Another map I saw floating around here showed that both UT and WI were both in the top 15 states in total life expectancy (even though WI has peaked), but were at opposite ends of the alcohol consumption continuum, of course.
English
@Zprtr1 @LurkerBored Hmmm - that's an interesting theory. Could it be that both WI and VT have relatively older populations to begin with? But then states like PA & ME would be worse (they are quite a bit older). I don't know beer consumption is higher in VT than PA? Seems like a jumble!
English
Wisconsin & Vermont are the only two states that have *peaked* in life expectancy in 2012 acc. to this graphic
What they also have in common is they are two states where beer production/consumption represents a major part of each states’ economy/culture 🍺 🍻
Thoughts?
James🗳@_fat_ugly_rat_
I feel like a lot of people would be shocked to find out that a lot of the country is *not* at its peak life expectancy! Large swaths of the country peaked pre-2015 and we have multiple states that peaked pre-2010!

It’s amazing sometimes how dumb markets are - grasping onto the ramblings of a senile, panicking madman for a little market syrup.

Translation: markets were tanking. Can’t have that on a Monday. Only a matter of time before Iran puts out a statement there have been no talks.

Trump says he has instructed DOD to postpone strikes on power and energy plants for 5 days due to talks with Iran.

What movie is 10/10, yet hardly anyone has heard of it?

@Noahpinion @engele Liberal and progressive are the same thing. WTH are you even talking about?
English
The transformation of liberals into "progressives" since 2013 has seriously been the worst thing to happen to American culture in my lifetime. Just absolutely gutted so much of what was good about this country. End of a golden age.

Bookmarking. The actual spread will be D+15.3%.
Hunter📈🌈📊@StatisticUrban
It hasn't received much attention, but WI has a Supreme Court election on April 7th. The only poll has the Democrat leading by 7pts. Markets have Dem odds at 95%. A D win here would lock in a 5D-2R WI court until at least 2030. The WI GOP appears to have given up?

@BlueCheese608 No. Our new chairman closed the office in Austin and opened five offices across the state. We have one in Amarillo, but everyone here is a volunteer for now. I’m basically gonna be the campaign manager for the two counties that make up Amarillo.

This is the only thing I have hanging on the wall of my office at the Democratic Party headquarters. I think I need a few other things to hang.

I have to admit I did a double take passing by.
But because it's Kwik Trip I laughed instead of having vague anti-corporate thoughts.
