Sad commentary when a satirist posts a claim that the current administration's revocation of the endangement finding report says "we doesn't know where the sun goes at night" and many people, used to loony pronouncements, find it plausible. www.snopes.com/fact-check/t...
Extreme progressives play an important role and deserve a seat at the table. But if you really want an unelectable candidate almost anywhere in the US, put one up for office.
Hilarious: Real Scientist Crushes @SecretaryWright 's gang of grifters - the DOE "Red Team" climate denial publication. It was meant to undergird Trump's gutting of GHG regs, but they were too embarrassed to cite it even for that. Climate wonk nirvana.

How do you deal with a Department of Energy head that does not understand the fundamentals of the system over which he directs policy? www.canarymedia.com/articles/tra...
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

#Maine might do well to consider a customized variant of this concept.
What the schizophrenic Trump energy policy does to New England electricity prices. Our cost follows the natural gas price. The DOE is increasing exports of LNG raising domestic prices by the end of the year. Expect big price hikes here. Affordability? Its own agency: www.eia.gov/todayinenerg...
UK offshore wind prices come in 40% cheaper than gas in record auction
The Department of Dunning Kruger strikes again. DOE eliminates radiation standard "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" (ALARA). www.eenews.net/articles/doe...
Need to end the cycle of federal orders to stop wind meant solely to create short term victory memes feeding misinformation to the base. ctnewsjunkie.com/2026/01/13/j...
False. Low gas prices are entirely because OPEC+ has been increasing production since March, lowering world prices. Why? To gain market share from the US. US shale oil needs high prices to keep rigs running. reuters.com/business/ene...
As #Maine faces more complicated energy choices, do we have institutions that most people trust to tell fact from opinion before ideology takes over? worthingtonsawtelle.com/energy-polic...
Good energy policy is technology-agnostic. worthingtonsawtelle.com/good-energy-...
The US ought to be having a similar discussion- not just to optimize the inefficient parochial networks within the US but to create an interconnected North American grid. But won't happen as long as our Dunning Kruger DOE persists. www.eesc.europa.eu/en/our-work/...
Looks like someone fails to understand correlation and causation. Trying to correlate gas prices to politics is nonsens, like claiming the divorce rate in Maine affects margarine consumption.
Time to rename this to the Department of Dunning Kruger Dominance.
#Maine energy committee voted out a bill requiring the state energy department to be technology agnostic on emerging technologies, rejecting a bill that prioritized #SMRs. Doubtless this will be spun as anti-nuclear. Nothing could be further from the truth. worthingtonsawtelle.com/good-energy-...
No work necessary. All he has to do is convince the Speaker to allow a vote on the Democrat bill that has been blocked by Republicans since 2024. The "End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act" (S.3402/H.R.6608)

We are constantly being told by a political party in #Maine that our electricity rates are high because of wind and solar. Here's #ISO-NE wholesale prices vs natural gas price.

The demolition of the offshore wind sector in 2025 will reverberate for decades, resulting in lost jobs, higher utility bills, and less reliable power grids. www.canarymedia.com/articles/off...

After a five-month freeze, BLM finally advances a solar project - but I bet it is not on the map of "Trump Planned Power Plants" pv-magazine-usa.com/2025/12/17/a...
Trump #fusion sets deals dial to ludicrous mode www.tradingview.com/news/reuters...
In the full of falsehoods speech Wednesday night Trump showed this chart. He failed to note his deal with the Saudis that caused the price increase late in 2020, or that he has had nothing to do with price declines this year - entirely due to OPEC+ increased production.
