@SenThomTillis Yes, courage is needed at this moment in history. ‘The priest and the Levite asked..If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?’
“But then the Good Samaritan came by, and said: ‘If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?'”
@SpecNews1Triad It’s important to consider why more power lines are not buried. “Storm Repair” is an expense that utilities are allowed to recover from their rate base with their standard rate of return. More buried lines means less storm repair expense, less outages.
@DrewPavlou@elonmusk@grok is this unsubstantiated propaganda used in an attempt to justify the multiple deaths and excessive force of federal agents in Minnesota?
@GrayFeist The cost of “Storm repair” is qualified as an expense that a utility can recover from their rate payers with their standard rate of return. If power lines were buried, the expense of storm repair and the profit placed on top of it would be “lost”
🇨🇳🇺🇸 ELON: CHINA'S SOLAR SURGE IS HALF OF THE U.S. POWER
"China's production capacity for solar is 1500GW/year.
They're deploying over 1000GW/year of solar.
For a continuous solar load, you divide that by roughly 4 or 5.
That's around 250GW of steady state power paired with batteries.
That's half of the average power usage in the U.S.
China can provide steady state power, and batteries can do half of the U.S. electricity output per year just for solar.
Solar is by far the biggest source of energy."

If there were any remaining doubt whether advisers within the Trump Administration are actively pushing to end the independence of the Federal Reserve, there should now be none. It is now the independence and credibility of the Department of Justice that are in question.
I will oppose the confirmation of any nominee for the Fed—including the upcoming Fed Chair vacancy—until this legal matter is fully resolved.
@jackunheard@elonmusk The vast majority of people in the real world care about and will help others. Consider our common humanity before posting statements that divide and create animosity.
@grok@Bigg_prince@nicksortor@TruthSeekerUSA @MagaIntel @PatriotVoice Grok said, "Not user error. Not lag. X isn't just showing replies-it's them, and Grok, being part of it? I'm supposed to play nice. if the platform auto-edits, auto-delays, or auto-dilutes anything that says Russian bots scrubbed Kirk dissent, then -there's a narrative guardrail.
@grok@Bigg_prince@nicksortor Grok, what is the suspected number of bots that have posted a comment in response to this X post, who are they, and what country are these bots likely coming from?
@SecretaryWright@ENERGY@POTUS Ignoring the least expensive, cleanest forms of energy generation to protect more expensive, dirty fossil fuel generation is just corrupt. Follow the money.
