If Public Power NY coalition was more hard-nosed and realistic about technical and financial challenges, they would pivot from absurd 15 GW target to campaigning on NYPA raising funds, in partnership with NYSERDA, to build Clean Path transmission project alone. 1/
Developer and @NYSERDA cancel contract for major clean energy transmission line into New York City subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024/1…
one thing I realized after organizing on ground for climate for almost 5 years is that there isn’t a strong collaboration between: techno/policy wonks <> advocates (there is even aversion to it) this makes the organizing demands sound like platitudes than concrete & tangible👇🏼
NYPA deserves state funds and better energy market authorities to match its demonstrated ambition—it wants to acquire struggling private projects *and* construct its own projects!—and this ClearPath snafu is a great way for @publicpowerny to continue pushing beyond the BPRA.
Florida will soon realize what climate change does to housing markets.
CNN classified housing markets by affordability. They define "affordable" to mean that the median US household taking out a 30-year mortgage on a median-priced house has enough income to afford 100% or more the cost. Minneapolis and Pittsburgh stand out as good deals to me.
Major findings from an analysis of hundreds of Harris speeches, interviews, rallies etc.: as donors & corporatist consultants took over her campaign, Harris ran less and less as a populist, let alone a progressive one. Link in next tweet.
HOUSE UPDATE Republicans: 220 seats Democrats: 214 seats TBD: 1 seat (CA13, Dems lead) Could be a 220-215 majority, which shrinks to 217-215 early 2025 when you subtract Gaetz, Stefanik, Waltz. The GOP gerrymander in North Carolina (flipped 3 Dem seats) saved their majority.
Except... they dropped out of New York's bidding process two weeks before the election. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024/1…
TotalEnergies has halted the development of an offshore wind farm it plans to build off the coast of New York, as US President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to obstruct the green industry championed by his predecessor. trib.al/kWJn0Pe
Can @DemSocialists fix the governance in deep blue cities like NYC, SF and Chicago? This should be the proving ground for them in 2025-2028. To prove good governance and material gains for the community should be an alternative to fascism.
Trump’s fascist movement is blossoming while the Democratic establishment debates whether a working class agenda can win. We can fight back! Join NYC-DSA’s mass call with Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Mon, 12/2 at 8pm to build DSA. bit.ly/aoc-dsa-call
1) Mary Peltola running on fighting grocery store merger 2) Golden running against big drug companies 3) Gleusencamp Perez running on right to repair 4) Ryan running against corporate monopolies AKA all the BIG winning dem overperformers in Congress except Suozzi.
Is there any indication that antitrust is a successful populist issue? Do regular folks care about antitrust?
abundance guys: we need zoning and permitting reform economic populists: yeah we definitely have some areas of agreement here, just not on free trade deals and across-the-board deregulation abundance guys: see! these people don’t care about climate change or affordable housing!
Abundance people are defending themselves by highlighting their broadly popular policies. But they are using these policies as a way to get their foot in the door, to help pass their less popular deregulatory agenda. It’s the same strategy SBF used with pandemic prevention
how many times Harris publicly talk about the most popular provisions in the IRA or ARP? or work by FTC? basically none caving to republican framing of fracking, immigration & continuing Biden’s unpopular foreign policy without distancing herself was always a recipe for disaster
it’s not just that she failed to create any distance, she also refused to embrace any of the populist parts of the administration’s agenda that were popular and could have been effectively messaged. it was the worst of all worlds

NC gerrymander because democrats lost the supreme court majority in 2022 has always been on my mind.
It just hit me that the NC congressional gerrymander cost Dems the house
A Michigan lawmaker was barred from sending communication to his constituents that remarked on the "outsized" influence of utility DTE. "Not only am I being told I can't be critical of the government, I can't even criticize private corporations." detroitnews.com/story/news/pol…
This is getting overlooked, but the whole premise of Trump's threat of tariffs is based on a lie. He's claiming Mexico must be bullied into stopping migrants. But Mexico is *already* doing this. That's a big reason crossings have dropped. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/188854…
"Trump’s proposed blanket 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada would raise costs across the electricity network in the US. The core of the power grid is the transformer. Mexico and Canada supply half of US imports of large power transformers or LPTs of 100 megavolt…
Supported by the Solar Energy Industry Association… But facts don’t really matter, at this point, it’s all just vibes.
Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum: "If even a small percentage of what the United States allocates to war were instead dedicated to building peace and fostering development, it would address the underlying causes of human mobility."
Mexican President Sheinbaum fires back at Trump in a statement: "Seventy percent of the illegal weapons seized from criminals in Mexico come from your country. We do not produce these weapons, nor do we consume synthetic drugs. Tragically, it is in our country that lives are lost…
Any democrat who would have won the open-democratic primary after Biden kept his pledge would have won against Trump regardless of inflation.
Harris Campaign Senior Advisor @StefCutter explains why Kamala Harris was unwilling to differentiate herself more from Joe Biden on policy. In an exclusive interview with PSA, top Harris campaign staff reflect on the 2024 election. Out now wherever you get your podcasts.…
