You mean the style in which people are used, unwittingly, as a tool of the state to destroy entire planets and civilizations, and then left for the rest of their lives to wrestle with the destruction and suffering they caused? I am begging, just begging everyone out there to…

This geography needs to be more accessible for Pittsburgers. Would you bail on your Steelers tickets because of riots at South Hills Village? Would you skip the Vintage Grand Prix bc at the same time there are days of violent protests outside the Kenny Chesney concert?

Sure but the primary alternative to burning US gas is to burn other people’s coal. Not a win for climate let alone for US trade or security
Record US oil and gas production is fueled by record exports, which will increase under the permitting bill. 5 US LNG export terminals use more gas than all 74 million residential gas utility consumers

A real opening here for Rachel Maddow to give us the most Howard Bealeian 25 minutes of her life
Schmitt (not Schmidt) then went on a podcast and agreed that he'd totally nailed Smith on this NBA game story xitter.cf/atrupar/status/2104975…

Hmmm…is it actually Republican staffs that aren’t hiring enough straight guys who know ball?
The reason Senators have staff is to save them from moments like this one. Someone in the Russell Building is probably updating a resume right about now.

Mr. Gray, what am I supposed to do if I’m more interested in erasing joy from the game, weakening the connections with my brand’s great moments in history, and undermining my television product? Can you help me then?

All of these things are true! When the oline and wrs underperform, in the ways they certainly have, it accentuates late-stage Rodgers’ obvious flaws. The way this team was built it can succeed only if every other component excels so the limited qb can be his best 42-yo self

You think he’s been the problem more than the offensive line or receiving core so far this season? I can’t possibly think you believe that.

The next Democrat who comes into this office is almost certainly going to have a much better sense of their executive authority. Their voters are demanding it.
interesting quote from a fossil fuel executive reflecting on his meetings with trump (regime change)

I’m not going to say Republicans ARE finally going to lose in Texas, but if Republicans were to ever lose Texas, this is how they would do it.
I know Austin is not a normal barometer of Texas statewide political sentiment but I have seen zero signs and bumper stickers for Paxton. Usually, I’ll see a few for the GOP’s top of the ticket.

“We’ll stand a chance if only our chronically negative and bad-faith members and stakeholders treat this challenging compromise with optimism and good faith…in the slim chance it makes it out of committee this week” is not exactly a promising forecast for permitting overhauls!
We could see permitting bill language as soon as this week, says @SenJohnCurtis at #ClimateWeekNYC. “There will be problems,” he said. But if stakeholders approach it with an open mind, instead of going for the kill, permitting reform might actually get done this year.
