The #MajorQuestionsDoctrine is an administrative law principle asserting that Congress must explicitly authorize an agency to address matters of significant economic or political importance; otherwise, the agency's action is invalid

Should apply to the executive and all #tariffs

@Beazy_Rampezy Breaks my heart. We get way too little time with them. Sending prayers

@ChrisCuomo ICYMI. The Dispatch has fact-checked Tucker’s assertion https://t.co/UaN7ecH5zH

Six hostages, including an American, were murdered by Hamas.

Despite the murder of innocence, including one of our own, there are too many in America who embrace a warped worldview that reserves more empathy for the murderers than for the murdered— that portrays the murderers not as terrorists and war criminals but as “decolonizers” and “liberators” and “resisters.”

Those who rationalize and romanticize the barbarism and terrorism of Hamas have blood on their hands.

"It took the US nearly 40 years to add the same nuclear power capacity as China added in 10 years"

#Nuclearpower provides nearly 19% of total US electricity; it has reliably provided ~1/5 of U.S. power for the past 30 years

@MatthewCappucci Where will you be for #totality ?

@Jamazing_Jake Does the tense matter?

Yemen will publicly stone & crucify 10 gay men in “gruesome public spectacles”

The country will imprison or publicly flog 60 other suspected homosexuals.

More than 40 men have been sentenced in two courts run by the Houthi regime

It is on us to use less and to develop alternatives #EVs to help drive ⬇️⬇️ consumption

Enhanced oil recovery #EOR does not create more demand for oil🛢️
Whenever traditional production shifts to #EOR it is unambiguously a win for the #climate

@m_jfrench You touch on this at the end of the piece, but electricity demand growth is highly likely, which makes it even harder to attain the "renewables" goal. For example, New York wants 100% light duty ZEV sales by 2035.

Nuclear + renewables makes climate targets achievable

[Doug Vine @DPVine]

Actually, biggest blow to NY state's ambitious climate goals was the irrational decision to shutter Indian Point nuclear facility that generated ~13 percent of NY's power⚡️ without CO2 emissions

@m_jfrench @GovKathyHochul time to consider a #restart !

Nuclear power is the indispensable climate solution. Large quantities of clean power from a small footprint preserves land, forests, ecosystems, vistas. Can be built anywhere, i.e., doesn't need to be sited near water. Adds grid resilience (e.g., blackstart), and so much more...

[Doug Vine @DPVine]

Well said. @JudiGreenwald @jharrell @J_Lovering

Lessons from NuScale’s terminated project will help pave the way for advanced nuclear energy https://t.co/eC6ctOFO0Z via @UtilityDive

“Sixty years ago, women couldn't even get a credit card or a mortgage without a male cosigner. Now, the share of single women homeowners eclipses that of single men.” #progress @axios

@chrismaheras_ @KChenoweth It’s a duet. Gets me every time too.

Some fantastic news for @NuScale_Power https://t.co/L0KI5VOLar @POWERmagazine

Let's build out that #projectpipeline ⚡️⚡️
