“It’s not just about the poles, wires, and technology. It’s about the decision points in people’s lives.” Check out the brilliant new piece from @movementphotog @MovementGen & @yesmagazine feat. @utilityjustice! #CancelPGE #EnergyDemocracy! https://t.co/42SyYUyWrM

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

I've never watched the Amazon Prime JACK RYAN show and never had any interest to, but I saw this clip today of the character played by John Krasinski and thought I'd share it b/c it does exactly what I speak about regarding Hollywood being a propaganda apparatus of US imperalism.

"Everyone fu*king hates you!" See what happens when unarmed, peaceful citizens put their bodies in the way of an unwarranted ICE raid. Status Coup's @JonFarinaPhoto covered a run-in between local St Paul, Minnesota residents and ICE agents on December 11th, 2025.

RIGHT NOW, in San Francisco’s city hall, Mayor Daniel Lurie is finding new ways to help the rich avoid paying their fair share. Let the mayor know that we don’t want taxes passed through to tenants. Tag @DanielLurie in the comments & let him know that you oppose raising rents!

People in Minnesota found the ICE hotel….no sleep for Nazis 💪!

What stage of corruption is this?

This is massive. After months of investigation, we found Instacart is using algorithmic pricing to charge customers different prices for the same item. It could be raising your grocery bill by hundreds of dollars a year. State AGs and the FTC should investigate immediately.

Open AI is in a cannibalistic deal with Microsoft and is constantly on the brink of collapse which will be probably trigger the collapse of the AI bubble. This is Disney giving it a lifeline to allow it to keep extracting the labour of artists and undercut Disneys labour costs

The Wall Street Journal says this investigation led Instacart’s stock price to fall.

Excessive utility profits cost Californians billions annually—a massive wealth transfer from working families to Wall St investors. @californiapuc has a chance to deliver on affordability at their Dec. 18 voting meeting by cutting profit margins. https://t.co/8smxTU6b0W

While utility bills soar, CA's private utilities rake in record profits. We need @californiapuc to cut excessive profits now. "Fair returns could save ratepayers $6.1B annually—$455/household. That requires regulators doing their job." @sdclimateaction https://t.co/HBPcr9xaWM

Our energy system is in crisis, and New Yorkers demand action. Public power can lower our bills, create union jobs, clean our air, and save our future--but only if NYPA listens to the people. The Public Power Democracy Act will ensure they have the leadership to get the job done.

A new independent study estimates replacing Central Hudson with a publicly-owned utility will save $15.2 million in Year 1, and $210.5 million per year by Year 30! Read the full report here:

Public ownership of our energy utility, Central Hudson, is not an end, it’s the means—to keep rates low, empower workers, and get us a 21st century grid. A new study estimates it would also save us money immediately! https://t.co/S1lcRzaCcA

Without public ownership, we won’t address energy affordability and we won’t get our aging grid to the 21st century. Our bill to replace Central Hudson Gas & Electric will start saving millions in Year 1! Read about it in the NY Times. https://t.co/RNK5m26Cvc

New: As PG&E announced another profitable year raking in nearly $2.5 billion, CA State Sen. @aishabbwahab filed a bill to cap and limit investor-owned utility rate increases on customers. California regulators approved six PG&E rate increases in 2024 https://t.co/qBCJ2wb6V5

Working with over five dozen public power organizers, we created a practical guide to building your own place-based campaign, including how to assess viability, what kind of campaign to wage, and the tactics of our opposition.

Last year, we convened a first-of-its-kind summit of public power organizers from across the country to analyze the state of our movement, the obstacles in our way, and where we go from here - which we distilled in a report released w/ @cplusci ⤵️

👋🌎 Hello world. We are Public Grids. We bring grassroots organizers and sector-leading experts together to build the public power movement at every level, from campaign to implementation.
