‘This is sell America’ — U.S. dollar, Treasury prices tumble and gold spikes as globe flees U.S. assets www.cnbc.com/2026/01/20/s... by Alex Harring @cnbc.com
here is my story about how Zohran's focus on community amid the loneliness epidemic helped young people connect their politics to an organizing infrastructure, that interviewed ZM, and does not use the NYT's framing of "they don't know how to make friends" :-) and also ran 4 days before NYT's lol
The factional grifters will hate this, but the Mamdani-Spanberger-Sherrill axis actually suggests the outlines of a broad, emerging Dem coalition organized around both anti-Trump *and* affordability politics, not a party bitterly divided against itself.
Young people in NYC absolutely showed out and there should be 1000 articles and profiles about this. Because we have had to put up with 1000 MAGA diner stories for years now.
this is BRILLANT
Under the long-standing backdrop of the climate crisis, would communication about acute energy crises encourage the public’s support for renewable policies?
ooof
In 2023, we won the Build Public Renewables Act — a groundbreaking law empowering NYS to speed up the clean energy transition and lower your bills with publicly-owned power.
Today is the deadline to tell the New York Power Authority that we need a plan for 15 GW by 2030. Take urgent action below.

Germany's Central Bank warned officials had previously “completely underestimated” the risks rising temperatures pose to the financial system.

1/ Amid the noise and setbacks, this week brought a few meaningful #publichealth wins. These may not have crossed your feed yet, but I want to highlight them because they matter. And in times like these, celebrating wins is important 👇

Again, even if you dislike Mamdani's discussion of the phrase "globalize the intifada" (which he does not use), Jeffries' full answer below implies Mamdani DOESN'T do things HE REPEATEDLY DOES - i.e. acknowledge the rise in antisemitism and pledge to keep Jewish New Yorkers and all New Yorkers safe.
it is kind of dissociative to be in europe while all of the things are happening in nyc and the US but it’s also low key refreshing to be away and less american-centric 🤷🏼♀️
Ahead of the #FFD2025 Financing for Development Summit, workers, economists and activists are making one thing clear:
To fund a fair and green future, we must #TaxTheSuperRich.
This isn’t just fiscal logic—it’s common sense.

From my story: “The Republican Party’s traditional views on climate and business are both changing and result in competing pressures,” Alex Flint, a longtime Senate Republican energy staffer, told me. Flint now runs the pro-business climate group Alliance for Market Solutions. “There is less climate denialism. And less support for business. So on the one hand, more Republicans are comfortable supporting climate policies like those in the IRA, but are less responsive to the businesses that want to defend those programs.” What that means is that, in the event of a big GOP victory, anything impossible to fully repeal may be fiddled with, whether through legislative or administrative means. On top of all the energy and climate regulations that would be targeted in that event, the nation’s transition away from fossil fuels could lose significant federal policy tailwinds.
TL;dr the anti-ESG movement rising in Republican circles was the moment we should’ve all been paying more attention to, because it was the GOP fully flipping the bird at free markets & it was always coming for the IRA
Yo necessito this fan!!!! Hope all goes well at ffd, Carlos 🙏🏼

One of the things I said over and over again for four years was that Eric Adams succeeded because Wiley/Garcia didn’t form a coalition until it was too late. It was a .5% win, and people treated it like a landslide. This is what RCV can deliver when candidates see success in each other.

“When it gets too hot, we lightly spray water on our arms, legs and faces; the water helps dissipate a lot of heat.“
Nah. Here’s a better idea: ensure equitable access to cooling and clean energy so people don’t die in heat waves.
hey @faineg.bsky.social you see this
Vance Boelter’s alleged assassination of a pro-choice lawmaker isn’t just a tragedy—it’s a warning. His path from charismatic Bible colleges to spiritual warfare rhetoric & targeted political violence shows how Christian nationalism can radicalize seemingly ordinary believers into deadly extremists.
For anyone not keeping count that's one candidate arrested for doing the right thing and four candidates showing up to support him. By sheer coincidence RCV in NY allows you to rank five people. Well there they all are!
