@ENERGY @SecretaryWright We made a film about Oil in Kern County, California

False. Just 15% of CA primary energy consumption comes from ‘renewables.’ More than 75% of CA energy consumption is from oil and gas — that’s higher than the national rate.

It is true that CA has embraced anti-hydrocarbon policies. The result?

CA has the highest electricity rates in the continental U.S., the highest gas prices, and the highest adjusted poverty rate in America.

I wouldn’t be bragging if that was my state.

NEW: Actor Eric Dane, who passed away following a battle with ALS, records one final message for his teenage daughters.

Dane recorded the interview with Netflix in secret, knowing it would be released after his passing.

"Billie and Georgia, these words are for you. I tried. I stumbled sometimes, but I tried. Overall, we had a blast, didn't we?"

"I remember all the times we spent at the beach, the two of you, me, and mom..."

"I want to tell you four things I've learned from this disease, and I hope you won't just listen to me. I hope you'll hear me."

"Live now, right now, in the present. It's hard, but I learned to do that for years."

"I would wander off mentally lost in my head for long chunks of time, wallowing in worry and self-pity, shame and doubt, and replay decisions. Second-guess myself. 'I should have done this. I never should have done that.' No more."

RIP.

🚨 New Trailer – Kern Oil 🚨
This isn’t about “Big Oil.”
It’s about real people in Kern County losing jobs, stability, and a voice while California imports oil from countries with weaker environmental standards. https://t.co/3QDij8DABP - help us @elonmusk
