6/ We don't listen enough; we tell people what's good for them. And when progressives like Bernie aggressively go after the elites that hold people down, they are shunned as dangerous populists. Why? Maybe because true economic populism is bad for our high-income base. 😬

I'm struck by the criticism that progressivism is to blame for Harris' loss.. As someone who covered the Harris campaign day in and day out for months, she was not running as a progressive, not on immigration, not on climate, etc. She ran as a centrist, consensus driven…

Hopefully the corridors making use of this bridge are being considered for other upgrades. The cost of extending the Ethan Allen to Montreal and installing signaling to enable 79mph top speeds would be around $600M.

Just a reminder that in May Governor DeSantis signed a bill removing consideration of climate change from all state laws. As he explained, ‘I’m not a global warming person.’ search.app/KwHpy7ndZg7293…

@Dlashof @drvolts 39. The US Inflation Reduction Act includes a licence to print money for solar manufacturers and hydrogen firms. It’s good for clean energy, but it's also like hitting the accelerator on a car with the handbrake on. The handbrake is trade barriers, grid and permitting issues.

Climate change is the kitchen table issue of our lifetimes, threatening the American dream, driving up inflation, food prices, housing costs, healthcare, immigration, utility bills. That it's still treated like a niche side issue is insane. heated.world/p/everyones-he…

I spent 6 months as a security guard, protecting what the industry has nebulously deemed the "Thin Purple Line." It's a strange, quickly proliferating job at the nexus of law enforcement + capitalism. My dispatch is the new @Harpers cover story: harpers.org/archive/2024/0…

Joe Biden has served our country with honor and dignity. As the first president to ever walk on a picket line with striking workers, he has been the most pro-working class president in modern American history. Thank you, Mr. President, for all you’ve done.
