This is both

(1) some of the most important SCOTUS reporting ever, and

(2) far too generous to the Republican justices in framing of many pieces and omissions of Trump-era developments

Trump is forcing dirty and outdated coal plants like Michigan’s Campbell coal plant to stay open against the wishes of the people in those communities.

He is poisoning our air and water and making taxpayers pay millions of dollars a day for their continued operation. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos
While legal challenges mount, Trump officials keep coal burning at Michigan power plant
The Trump administration continues to issue emergency orders keeping Consumers Energy's J.H. Campbell power plant open, a move that could cost ratepayers millions.

This is the impact of Trump's big ugly bill.

We should be focused on the future, but his short-sighted attack on clean energy has made it too expensive. And Kentucky workers are paying for it. bit.ly/4j1jbXq

It’s easy to feel like the sky is falling with the Trump administration's attempts to ban clean, cheap energy.

But there’s reason for hope. We’re making progress lowering costs, building clean energy, and tackling climate change all across the country.

The two Democrats who surged to surprise victories on Tuesday and flipped seats on Georgia's Public Service Commission are already having material effects on the state's monopoly utility.

Both Jefferies *and* Goldman Sachs just downgraded Southern Company on regulatory concerns. 👀

Senate Republicans just voted to kick 20 million Americans off their health care.

JD Vance thinks that is "minutiae."

Ernst doesn't care because "we're all gonna die."

McConnell says people will "get over it."

Don't EVER let Republicans live this down.

Musk's DOGE cuts just hit Health and Human Services and it's horrific. They are trying to completely eliminate the entire Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program which helps millions of Americans with their heating and cooling bills. It is the middle of winter. It was 1°F in Utah today.
