The Big Oil-owned House of Representatives just voted to raise everyone’s energy prices.

Remember this the next time you hear an oil executive talk about “affordable energy.” They don’t give a shit about that, you, or anything other than selling more oil.

3. Full repeal of current federal energy and climate policies would: Increase average U.S. household energy costs by roughly $100 to $160 per household per year in 2030 and roughly $270 to $415 per household per year in 2035.

"One of the biggest misconceptions surrounding animal agriculture is that it’s a natural, self-sustaining part of our economy. In reality, this industry is incredibly inefficient and could not survive without massive government subsidies funded by taxpayers."

Quanto ci mancherai carissimo Papa Francesco ❤️

Dacci ancora più coraggio e determinazione, per combattere le ingiustizie e disuguaglianze di un sistema economico e sociale, che distrugge l'Uomo e la Terra e non rigenera, isola e non unisce, emargina e non accoglie.

Che tu possa riposare in Pace 🙏

For those folks who have been waiting to climb the pole and ring the “constitutional crisis” bell, it would appear we have arrived. Neither Judge Sorokin nor Judge Boasberg believed that he was signing a meaningless order, and both judges demanded compliance that never came.

We’ve Officially Entered the Next Phase of Trump’s Dictatorship Era

Taken together, these actions and declarations amount to a significant escalation in Trump’s transformation of his own presidency into an autocracy.
