New in PN: Mike Johnson's downward spiral
"His speakership is a story of chaos and failure at a time when he and his party should be racking up wins. Apparently, the Lord played a trick on his humble servant: He may have given Johnson the job, but He didn’t say he’d be any good at it."

Mike Johnson's downward spiral
Speaker of the House is a tough job. But he's particularly bad at it.

Why don't Democratic congress people all have @bluesky accounts so they can read what the American people are saying. Sometimes I think they have little idea of what is going on.

Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.
Enough to power 23 million homes!
U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

Reporter: You said he would have no problem with releasing the full video of that strike on September 2nd
Trump: I didn’t say that. This is ABC fake news. Whatever Hegseth decides is ok with me… Let me just tell you, you are an obnoxious reporter. Actually, a terrible reporter.

In 2016, Pete Hegseth warned that Trump would pressure the military to break the law and would abandon anyone who upheld the law. They all knew Trump was a threat to lawful command. Their hypocrisy isn't new-it's the whole project.

We don't have to guess how an at-will public employment system will be used under Trump, because we have a de facto at-will system already in place.
Under that system, here are some of the reasons you can be fired from the federal government:
