AOC called Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric ignorant, while making an ignorant statement.
She also misrepresented what Charlie said about the Civil Rights Act.
We can’t keep doing this - it’s putting people in danger.
Who is John Galt?

@elonmusk you will have a bigger (family) market if you reduce $ the model X in 6 or 7 seat configuration so that you can apply the IRA credit. Right now, Kia, Vinfast and soon Volvo owns this EV segment...
@POTUS how is this administration working on improving USCIS processing times? The I-485 was less than 6 months when we started the process, now 2 years later it is 38,5 months at the Nebraska Service Center (and growing for each month). Can this please have a greater focus?
Incredible: German electricity demand has fallen to the lowest levels since before reunification in 1990, as its economy falters.
Germany intentionally turned off its extraordinarily cheap and reliable baseload nuclear power, rapidly, during a generational energy crisis.
Putin didn't make them do it.
America didn't make them do it.
Even German public opinion has turned dramatically back in favor of nuclear.
German leaders made this choice, to turn them off and keep them off.
Look at these graphs of annual electricity. It's like Germany is committing WW2-style bombing raids against its own infrastructure.
If Germany were electrifying, for either climate or growth reasons, then we would expect electricity demand to grow, not fall.
We should be seeing all time records in electricity production and demand, not the lowest numbers in over three decades.
Now electricity is too expensive for many industries to justify using for expanding or even maintaining production, so electricity demand is dropping.
But Germany's own generation of electricity is plunging even faster than its demand is, turning Germany from a net exporter to a net importer of power.
Many commenters have celebrated the falling energy costs in Germany for this year and next. But those falling costs are coming along with falling demand for power, not increasing demand.
And costly renewable subsidies are no longer paid directly on power bills, but instead from the national budget, lowering the apparent cost of power even further, which should be stimulating demand.
Yet electricity remains so persistently expensive relative to pre-crisis years that, in combination with expensive natural gas, it just isn't worth it for Germany's major energy consumers.
Germany's courts have, for now, rejected adding more and more subsidies for energy production infrastructure to be paid for by national debt.
Even though this is a crisis for Germany, the courts seem wise in rejecting subsidies for expensive new energy when cheap nuclear plants could just be turned back on.
Leading opposition parties have already stated their intention of restarting Germany's nuclear plants should they win power.
This would take about a year each, but each nuclear plant would prop up a meaningful fraction of Germany's bleeding industrial sector.
In my view, there is no longer any other budget-neutral or budget-positive energy move available to German leaders, without destroying Germany's climate agreements to turn on lignite coal full blast.
Most of the web has improved the ux and customer experience the last years, but booking vacations through @delta is seemingly not possible and honestly quite frustrating @ed_bastian
Adding to it, we had no infotainment or power in the seats after they rebooted the plane at the gagmte. The delta app kicked us out and phones went out of power. We did finally fly out, but I lost my business meeting due to delta being cheap on maintaining this plane.
Hi @delta and Ed Bastian. Today's flight to Atl from DTE didn't go as planned. 2 hours and still stuck on the tarmac. The plane carries signs of lack of maintenance with sealed off overhead bins that cannot close, a water leak fixed with tape and napkins and engine issues...
Our democracies are threatened by non-profit organizations silencing, through threats and actions, countries and social media platforms in the name of combating hate speech. Hate speech depends on who defines what hate is and is opposing free speech principles. Don't mix the two!
Elon Musk has found himself in a battle & potential $22 billion lawsuit w/ the ADL
But who is the ADL?
Are they the righteous champions against hate or should we be asking more questions?
Watch below to dive into the not-so-spotless history of the ADL

Why blame @elonmusk for not allowing his tech to be used for offensive strike capability. If it had been allowed, his satellites would have been allowed targets to shoot down. Starlink is being actively used for communication in Ukraine already.
