If someone sane were in the White House, there would be real concessions and an effort to get to yes, not this silliness. But this WH is just not capable of rational negotiation because who the boss is. (Same dynamic killed the crypto bill.)

More NEWS here in MIDDAY: The wind projects approved so far by Trump's DOD (not including the 2 today) have all been smaller projects classified as “category 5,” which basically represent an upgrade of an already operating wind farm in that same location, @USCleanPower told me

Seriously. Maybe their next book can be How To Lose Allies and Alienate People. Open the door the next time you want to build a supermajority by passing big legislation.

Funny how Searchlight, whose whole deal is (ostensibly) getting Dems to be a supermajority, went all in on permitting reform, which lands on the wrong side of multiple supermajority issues (public lands, clean air/water, data centers). Maybe just ignore these guys from now on?

This framing shows how Searchlight got BAAJA so wrong. If emissions are the only thing you consider when drafting a bill, you don't either notice or don't care that the bill you wrote fucks over tribes, communities, wildlife, water, and air.

Okay, I’m going to state something plainly: even if you assume BAAJA's permit certainty provisions are horrible (they aren’t), what does that cost on emissions? ~ZERO, bc we do not cut emissions by revoking permits after the fact. We do it with standards & investment in clean.

I don't think anyone who followed me is still active here, but if you are, you're supporting fascism, full stop. Leave now.
