Coalition director @ Stop the Money Pipeline. Working to end the fossil fuel industry by cutting off the flow of money.

And so we begin our election coverage with Elon's first loss. Elon gave the max individual amount of $6,600 to MiKKKe Collins' campaign. He didn't set any money on fire in this race via Super PACs (that we know of), but we love to watch piles of his money burn no matter how small... Stay tuned!

Musk is getting scared. He should be. Massive news from WaPo today confirming that our campaign to Investigate DOGE is working. Senator Blumenthal, the most powerful Democrat positioned to launch an investigation, has committed to investigating DOGE, and Musk is lashing out. Let's win this.

Yesterday, a group of senior insurance industry professionals blew the whistle on how the insurance industry is systematically minimizing the risks of global heating, risking a global financial crisis & making the climate crisis even harder to address. Takeaways: 🧵

BREAKING: A bombshell memo published from senior insurance professionals sounds the alarm on the industry’s deliberate tweaking of climate loss models. They warn that insurers are creating conditions that may cause another global financial crisis. And it gets worse.🧵

WA top court deals death blow to natural gas initiative

A measure approved by voters in 2024 sought to protect access to natural gas in Washington and weaken codes that make it more difficult to install gas in homes.

From Nepal to New York, adapting to climate breakdown (as best as we possibly can) is now a moral imperative and will cost trillions of dollars. The question is who's going to pay for it. The only possible ethical answer is those that caused the problem in the first place.

It’s terrifying to be in Elon Musk’s crosshairs. I’ve spent the last 48 hours dealing with the aftermath of these tweets. Everything he has said about me and Troublemakers is an outright lie. The right to protest is at the heart of American democracy. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest. ✊❤️

Troublemakers@troublemakers.bsky.social · 2y ago

Musk doesn't get how nonviolent protest works. Why are we Troublemakers? Because as Rep. John Lewis, RIP, knew: in hard times, good trouble is ESSENTIAL to all that we love. When the world is at risk, when democracy is at risk, we're either troublemakers—or collaborators. So: who's a Troublemaker?

Elon Musk tweet from Saturday morning that says: An investigation has found 5 ActBlue-funded groups responsible for Tesla “protests”: Troublemakers, Disruption Project, Rise & Resist, Indivisible Project and Democratic Socialists of America.

ActBlue funders include George Soros, Reid Hoffman, Herbert Sandler, Patricia Bauman, and Leah Hunt-Hendrix. 

ActBlue is currently under investigation for allowing foreign and illegal donations in criminal violation of campaign finance regulations. This week, 7 ActBlue senior officials resigned, including the associate general counsel.

If you know anything about this, please post in replies. Thanks, Elon.
