NEW ANALYSIS: What's going on in Spain? Spain's wholesale electricity price in early 2026: €44/MWh. Italy: €127. Germany: €96. UK: €103. Wind+solar now deliver 44% of generation. Gas sets the price in just 9% of hours, down from 55% in 2022. Full analysis: janrosenow.substack.com/p/spain-just...

Spain just became one of Europe's cheapest power markets. Here is how.

How wind and solar quietly pushed gas off the margin, and the wholesale price followed.

After (checks historical record) over a dozen years worth of public criticism from Julia, this kind of gleefully reductive take from her is nothing new. But there is a word for it: projection.

I mentioned that several of the Cities Church defendants had informed the judge that DOJ was overredacting discovery and in so doing hiding the names of witnesses who debunked DOJ's theory of the case.

emptywheel@emptywheel.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Harmeet Dhillon is trying to hide the names of the Cities Church members who didn't find the Don Lemon et al protest to be a threat, in violation of the protective order. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The information being concealed by the government is material to the preparation of the defense. Many of the unnamed witnesses made clear in their statements to the government that they were not threatened in any way or prevented from leaving the church. Because their statements are completely at odds with the government’s theory of the case, their identifying information will never be produced. Without access to the unredacted names and PII (subject to the protective order's safeguards), the defense cannot adequately evaluate the discovery, identify relevant witnesses, or prepare for motion practice and trial.
