This is exact playbook the Trump administration is using to destroy federal climate research, which is inextricably linked to weather prediction. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...
Trump, Treasury Sec. Bessent and other admin officials are claiming Iran will soon feel such significant financial pressure that they'll cut a deal. But the worst financial pressure is months away and if Hormuz is not opened by then, the global and domestic economic pain will be substantial.
Will this be imported to the US? It costs less than $10k and should scare US automakers as much as China's EV industry does if it's successful.
Don't miss this killer story from Corbin, @chelseaeharvey.bsky.social and Lesley Clark on the quiet forces aligning to attack climate research.
A judge paused the Trump administration's dismantling of
@ncar-ucar.bsky.social, one of the world's top climate and weather research facilities. But it's just one small part of a much larger ongoing White House effort to snuff out federal climate research. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...
"There's a day of reckoning coming." Energy analysts believe Trump's jawboning of the oil market is artificially keeping prices too low when they should be higher to reflect the reality caused by the Iran war. A correction is coming. www.politico.com/news/2026/04...
Diesel prices are likely days away from breaking record high because of the Iran war. Diesel is the economic backbone of the US economy, and drives inflation while raising the cost of virtually everything. It's another hit to Republicans gearing up for midterms. www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

Wind and solar have now beaten fossil fuels in Great Britain for a record 15 months in a row
Just a decade ago, fossil fuels were generating four times more than wind + solar
Now that's flipped: Since the Iran war, wind and solar generated twice as much as fossil fuels

Artemis is "an echo of what America could still be, but is not today, because of the attacks on science," Rep. Whitesides told me. The mission has captured imaginations worldwide—but also casts Trump's deep proposed cuts to federal research into sharp relief. My story:

Anthony Constantino's campaign hired a "support agent" to help with the candidate's communications; a simple Google search would have revealed that Alec Flores was (and is) facing a murder charge for allegedly slashing or stabbing a man to death in June 2023.

NEW: Republican lawmakers and oil industry allies are seeking to discredit a forthcoming National Academies report on weather attribution science — a field of climate research that could cost fossil fuel companies billions of dollars. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...
An emerging field of research that can measure how much climate change has worsened individual disasters is under attack by friends of the fossil fuel industry. Billions of dollars are at stake.
Anthony Constantino's campaign hired someone to help manage his online presence. The person they hired had been arrested on open murder charges the year before, with the case still ongoing.

A surge in diesel costs is set to ripple through the U.S. economy, raising prices on everything from groceries to housing and adding new political risk for Republicans.
