When starvation is used strategically it arises not from a scarcity of what feeds the body but a scarcity of what feeds the soul: grace. Say “grace” with me Speaker Johnson.

Excellent assessment of the ouster of Connecticut's top utility regulator and what it means for whether any state's politicians are going to have the courage to **actually** stop electricity rates from skyrocketing, and not just bloviate about it

God fucking dammit. Marissa Gillett is a hero. She pushed back against piratic, insular, greedy utilities and so they went after her -- slandering her in the papers, suing, complaining to her boss. And they won. The utilities won. She has resigned. Fuck this world.

I'm a single-issue voter: "We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent."
