Who stands to loose from a green transition? The biggest beneficiaries of fossil fuel profits, the richest of the rich. 50% of profits go to top 1% of wealth owners.
My co-author @GregorSemieniuk will present our paper and more at the @LSEEI on March 3, 6.30 PM. Go if you can!

Billionaires, while building their own luxury bunkers for “apocalypse insurance," are funding groups telling Dems to forget about climate action. We just published a memo laying out why that'd be a huge political mistake. aaronregunberg.substack.com/…

NEW REPORT: We dove deep on annual U.S. federal subsidies to fossil fuel production...and the news is BAD.
- $31B/yr in existing subsidies
- $4B/yr in new subsidies added by Trump + Republicans this year
Grand Total = *$35 BILLION per year* in handouts to Big Oil, Gas, + Coal.

Big Oil spent nearly half a BILLION dollars in last year’s election cycle.
Now, they’re coming to collect — and they’re getting a big return on investment. Watch:

Thanks to @RepDexterOR for highlighting the public health & environmental risks of fossil fuels and to @selc_org's Megan Gibson for sharing the dangers LNG facilities bring to Cameron Parish during today's hearing.
#LNG export facilities are destroying frontline communities.

Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.
So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

Lewelyn has lived in the U.S. for 50 years. She’s a green card holder, a lab technician at UW Medicine, and a trusted pillar in her family. Now, she’s in ICE detention while trying to come home after visiting loved ones in the Philippines.
She’s part of our union family. And what’s happening to her could happen to any one of us.
We’re calling on UW to do better:
– Protect detained workers’ jobs
– Provide leave for immigration proceedings
– Educate all employees on their rights
✊🏽 Stand with Lewelyn. Stand with immigrant workers.

UFW union members are among those detained while traveling home from work yesterday in Kern County, CA. We are providing them and their families with support.
Random actions like this are not meant to keep anyone safe, they are intended to terrorize hardworking people.

“While Trump won 3 million more votes this year than in 2020, he won the same share of the eligible population (CVEP) as he did four years ago (32%)…
Meanwhile, Harris’s share of eligible voters fell to 31.1 percent, a 3.5 point drop from Biden.”
