This isn't about left vs. right. It's about whether the US intends to compete.
Because right now, on one of the scoreboards that matters most — who is building the energy infrastructure to power the AI age — we are losing. Badly.

Killing offshore wind. Clawing back clean energy tax
credits. Hitting solar panels with tariffs. Mocking the technologies China is deploying at historic scale to power its industrial and AI future.
Meanwhile, China is cementing industrial dominance in the tech that defines the 21st century.

This isn't just a climate story. It's a competitiveness story.
AI data centers will need 80–130 GW of NEW US power capacity over the next decade. There's no version of American AI dominance without cheap, abundant, reliable power.
So what is the current administration doing about that?

While the US debates clean energy, China is lapping us--and the stakes go way beyond climate. This is about who wins the AI race.
New solar/wind capacity added in '25:
🇨🇳 China: 434 GW
🇪🇺 EU: 84 GW
🇺🇸 USA: 35 GW
China added more clean energy this year than the US has built in its entire history.

"We need to stop electing politicians more loyal to their donors than to the country's fiscal future — regardless of party. The charts don't lie. This is a bipartisan failure, and it demands a bipartisan solution. Ask every candidate: what specifically is your plan to fix this?"

running at a large 'SURPLUS'! ..... but now, this debt problem is literally careening out of control!
just paying the ANNUAL INTEREST on the US debt has increased over FOURTEEN TIMES since Jimmy Carter was President ... & this year will exceed $1 TRILLION ... ie, $1,000,000,000,000.00+ !

now projected at over 150% by the end of trump's 2nd term (excluding the offsetting effect of his 'tariff tax increase, mainly paid for by middle/lower Americans)
i am old enough to remember worries, during the Clinton Debt-Reduction years, about the 'dangers' of the country potentially

the US has a very serious debt problem
the RH chart, below, shows the CHANGE, increase or decrease, in the US debt as a % of GDP for each presidential time in office, since Ike. (i think the color of the 'bars' tells a story!)
the LH chart shows the trend of debt as % of GDP over time..
I’m hollering at my screen… yaaas!
Actress Sheryl Underwood, an Air Force Reserve veteran, is asking the questions we all want answers to.
“Why is this not impeachable? And where are the politicians that say, ‘this dude don’t have it all the way together, he cannot be the commander in chief?’” 🔥
Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

- very, very, very wrong!
- UNACCEPTABLE!
- bought-&-paid-for politicians!
- that’s why GOP tax cuts benefit mainly the WEALTHY!
- that’s why CEO PAY up 11 TIMES since 1978 … while typical worker pay up 1/4 of ONE TIME!

Trump multiple times just today has said the country is at war. War can only be declared by Congress, and Iran posed no imminent threat. What Trump is doing there is a textbook illegal war and impeachable offense — if we still had a Congress.
in case you were wondering just HOW stupid the ‘trump team’ can be … surely this must be near bottom
l’il marco, on why U.S. had no choice but to attack Iran —
“It was abundantly clear that if Iran came under attack by anyone — the United States or Israel or anyone — they were going to respond..”

TRUMP DOES NOT SPEAK FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE US PEOPLE!
MOST OF US DESPISE HIM … & HIS STOOGES … & HIS COWARDLY, SPINELESS ENABLERS in HIS CABINET, the GOP CONGRESS, & ELSEWHERE!
U.S. Constitution — ‘Congress Shall Have the R-E-S-P-O-N-S-I-B-I-L-I-T-Y ! to Declare War!’
GOP Congress — ‘WE ARE TRUMPERS! WE DO NOT ACCEPT 3 BALANCED BRANCHES OF GOVT.! TRUMP UBER ALLES!!’

Watch this.
19 minutes and $12 to get meds at a public Chinese hospital. Without insurance.
As we slash Medicaid to start unnecessary wars and cut taxes for the rich. 🇺🇸
We should all be so much angrier than we are. It doesn’t have to be this way. #MedicareForAllNOW
WATCH — @senpeterwelch walks through a no-bid $143,000,000 contract that went to @KristiNoem’s spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin’s husband’s company that had just been formed.
She should be impeached for this outrageous scandal alone.
Yet it’s barely a blip in this corrupt regime.
More of this, please
