What are your true feelings on John Harbaugh?



Ravens allowed 30 pressures on Lamar Jackson last night, per PFF. Ravens defense had 20 missed tackles, per Next Gen Stats. Let that sink in.


Other key changes to energy tax cuts in the Senate-passed OBBB: 1. New clean vehicle (EV) purchase credits (30D, 45W) ended after September 30, 2026 2. Residential clean energy (rooftop solar, battery) and energy efficiency credits end after 2025 (same for commercial efficiency deductions, though bonus depreciation for all business capital investments with depreciation schedules less than 21 years may make that irrelevant?) 3. 45V clean hydrogen credit available if projects commence construction before end of 2027 4. FEOC rules added to 45X advanced manufacturing incentive for producing solar, wind, battery components and critical minerals and credit for wind mfg ends after 2027. 5. FEOC for 45U existing nuclear PTC (but no prohibited nuclear fuel source rules as in House bill) 6. 45Q carbon utilization/storage credit raises credit value for utilization to match storage ($85/t).






Senate fails to terminate Green New Scam The Senate bill *looks like* it has a 2027 "placed in service" cutoff for new solar/wind subsidies. But one last-minute paragraph makes it worthless—because projects making a recoverable 5% investment in the next 12 months are exempt! The idea of a 2027 "placed in service" cutoff was that new subsidies would actually end during the Trump administration. But under the last-minute carveout, Big Green has 12 months to initiate as many subsidized projects as it wants using the insanely-easy-to-meet "construction" threshold. (All you need to do is commit 5% of expected project cost to buying re-sellable assets like solar panels.) Once they declare "construction"—e.g., in July 2026—they'll have 4 years (e.g., July 2030) to "place in service." And then some of those projects, e.g., most wind projects, will get 10 years of subsidies. So we'll still have wind subsidies on Donald Trump's 94th birthday! Here's how much worse the Senate bill just got: * Two days ago: "Placed in service" by 12-31-27—with new subsidized solar/wind projects stopping very quickly, and Trump being able to let subsidies truly end. * Today: "Placed in service" by JULY 2030—with new subsidized solar/wind projects absolutely spamming the rid and ripping off taxpayers like never before, and Trump having no control over whether the subsidies end. The current Senate bill is arguably worse than the original Senate Finance one. At least that bill decreased solar/wind subsidies starting in 2026 to 60%. The current bill just increased them to 100%. The current bill is a solar/wind lobbyist's dream. It does not terminate the Green New Scam in any way, shape or form. It absolutely perpetuates it. And offensively so, I might add, by keeping the "placed in service" cutoff language so many people courageously fought for, then totally undoing it with a single last-minute paragraph that makes it worthless. If the Senate wanted to extend the Green New Scam it should have said so, not insulted our intelligence by trying to bury the extension in one sneaky little paragraph. PS Several Senators have already told me they didn't know about or understand this last-minute paragraph. If that's the case they should do whatever they can to fix the situation.

Electricity bill went from $225k to $325k on our (one) office building. Time for solar, no-brainer.

Everybody begging me to get an xbox do I get one? Is it worth it?

I know the kicker mentals going crazy. I trust in him to make the next one

*whispers* I would re-sign Marcus Peters 🫣

"I'm super proud of this team, I'm excited for this team to get back and get better."

I honestly think it’s time to move on from John Harbaugh and Greg Roman. #RavensFlock
