As I mentioned in a post yesterday, American politics has reached a point where one of its two major parties, the Republicans, seems to have become aware that it offers nothing whatsoever that offers value to its base.
Its platform, which consists of banning abortion, unlimited gun rights, cutting Social Security and Medicare, environmental devastation, the rejection of science, withdrawing support for Ukraine, and, most of all, kowtowing to a sociopathic criminal former president, has turned out to be entirely unappealing to most voters.
Its policy of stopping whatever the Democrats want to do has also ceased to register at the polls.
How is it possible that it has taken so long for all this to emerge on the political landscape? I have no clue.
As shown below, there are tons of large clean energy projects slated for construction in the PJM (midAtlantic) region.
Once the Republicans’ war on renewables comes to a close, things could get interesting.
They are both the results of the human need to make sense of the world around us and to unravel life’s great mysteries.
The idea of a calm presentation of the news may have a certain surface-level appeal, and, at most points in history, that may have been completely appropriate.
But what about 1933 when Hitler was coming to power in Germany?
What about 2026 while Trump is destroying American democracy?
If you’re an American and you’re not infuriated, there is something profoundly defective in you.
