Nice to see respected, longtime Court-watcher Linda Greenhouse use my term for SCOTUS: “captured.”  And captured by right-wing special interests, just as in the ‘bad old days’ railroad commissions were captured by railroad barons. Same method, too. https://t.co/GJz80fqSw1 — PolitiTweet.org

While political discussions and fossil fuel lying continue, the emissions keep climbing — like having discussions about how to keep boat from sinking, while it sinks. https://t.co/n2q96aaRqV — PolitiTweet.org

#13 - @mcbakst wrote a great piece about former AG and Judge Richard Israel — Israel, Michaelson and Bakst are three of the great ones, and it’s nice to see them converge here. — PolitiTweet.org

Lying about health effects of its product was the basis for a major DOJ victory against tobacco industry liars/deniers that put them under a court order: ‘Thou shalt lie no more.’  Unable to lie, industry changed behavior. Important win. — PolitiTweet.org

We can all note the irony of Koch industries signing up for programs its Koch climate-denial political organization worked so hard to obstruct. https://t.co/1W6qzib4zH — PolitiTweet.org

Now we need the enforcement effort — domestic and international — to act on this information. Let’s get going.  https://t.co/Fmu8DMLUWE — PolitiTweet.org

Rhode Island did our own flood mapping because FEMA mapping was so bad.  Part of climate denial was not plugging climate into mapping—we see what folly that was. https://t.co/j7grExU8tT — PolitiTweet.org

This will not improve until (a) fossil fuel moderates its malign political influence or (b) the rest of corporate America shifts its political apparatus out of neutral (or reverse) on climate. https://t.co/qGyZuvnGQ5 — PolitiTweet.org

My methane fee got in the IRA; EPA just launched its methane rule (with embedded carbon price—hurray); next we need a major methane detection/enforcement task force.  https://t.co/RWa4PNme41 — PolitiTweet.org

FedSoc justices come to FedSoc like high school football teams come to pep rallies — may be a lot of things but not judicial. https://t.co/gTAL6KIWpM — PolitiTweet.org

CLIMATE GEEK ALERT: Deep within, the Biden methane reg effects a “social cost of carbon” at $120/ton. Bravo! If broadly applied, this is huge. https://t.co/yWQfsbDXO0 — PolitiTweet.org

With the passage of the PACT Act this year, we took a big step to ensure our veterans get the high-quality care and benefits they have earned. Vets and their families can learn more about the PACT Act here: https://t.co/uBdVAdeOU2 — PolitiTweet.org

Telltale:  “taking Roe off the table clears the way for other agenda items.”   Really?  “Agenda”?  “Agenda items”?  Since when are courts supposed to have — or care about — “agenda items”?  Once again, the quiet part is said out loud.  https://t.co/1i2vTeqTWU — PolitiTweet.org
