This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.

GOP congressman says Muslims "don’t belong in American society” while his party shrugs Republican Andy Ogles' open bigotry drew little pushback from fellow Republicans—and barely a ripple from Democrats

Republicans are still silent when it comes to bigots like Randy Fine and Andy Ogles.

Trump wants to punish a blue sky American solar industry that provides 280,000 jobs while rewarding a black sky dangerous industry that kills Americans every year that's shrunk to <41,000 jobs. It's like he's trying to stop booming refrigerator sales in the 30's to prevent loss of Ice Truck drivers.

What Trump did to partially stall the Solar boom:
The utility-scale segment installed 34.7 GWdc in 2025, a 16% decline compared to 2024. ... fewer projects that were originally slated to come online in Q4 were energized. Due to the changes in tax credit deadlines "

"2025 was a monumental year for the US solar manufacturing industry. New cell capacity continued to expand, and wafer capacity came online for the first time since 2016. Module manufacturing grew more than 50% in 2025, with 65.5 GW of capacity online, up from 42.5 GW at the end of 2024"

If we aren't doing solar we aren't doing shit for our children's futures:
'Solar was 54% of all new electricity-generating capacity added to the US grid in 2025. Solar + storage made up 79% of new capacity in this timeframe. ... solar capacity is roughly half of new capacity added through 2060.'
