🚨 BREAKING: As Trump insists the Iran ceasefire is over & markets tank, there are credible reports Trump & his family sold HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS in stock yesterday to cash in on gains before today’s market bloodbath, with plans to re-buy when Trump floats peace.
BREAKING: Trump says that the “Islamic Republic of Japan” shot 111 missiles at an American aircraft carrier.

You may want to take a gander at actual data @SecretaryWright
U.S. and world data show that more WindWaterSolar correlates with lower electricity prices.
More fossils, nuclear, and biomass correlate with higher prices
This applies to the world

Batteries were discharged at that level even though prices were >99% below the price cap. Huge wholesale cost reductions from batteries in ERCOT.

We know who really commits election fraud. The same party that controls a state for 30 years and constantly telling YOU there's cheating in elections, but not by them. #ItsTheCorruptionStupid#TexasGOPGriftTrain🚂
@TexasGOP@CollinGOP@DentonCountyGOP should be ashamed of themselves. The same people are ALWAYS on the WRONG side of history. These are TAXPAYING CITIZENS and they VOTE. All MAGAt Cons can do is recycle racism. #TexasTheHateState#txlege
