Encouraging sign for permitting reform to build more energy infrastructure:
Opponents seem to be struggling to rally more Democrats against the deal.

Good illustration of a broader point, people don’t undermine democracy for no reason the idea is to ban all abortions and cut popular programs. https://t.co/2K4kST0hze

Scoop: Federal prosecutors likely to wait until after Nov election to announce any action against Trump, if they determine he broke any laws, sources tell @cstrohm. Under DOJ policy, no investigative steps 60 days before election. This year, that's Sept. 10.

New from me: Trump was never able to wrap his head around the idea that the office of the presidency was separate from the president, the person.
That's bled into his post-presidency, as the Mar-a-Lago documents fiasco makes clear

@luchuubit @Noahpinion Chinas EV production is amazing but that’s just one part of the whole picture and that China is still a increasingly massive CO2 generator and many of their state owned companies are the root of the problem

I remember this: @DeanPreston blocked hundred of affordable homes for a “racial equity study” that he said would take 6 months
It’s been 26 months, and it turns out the study was a lie to block the affordable housing indefinitely. what a scandal
Left-NIMBYism must be rejected
