Le Pen's party (RN) got 143 seats. While a record, that's far (very far) from the 289 they hoped for to govern. How?! Hundreds of Left & Macronist candidates dropped out to help each other block the RN. And millions of voters then voted strategically to get that job done.

Teleprompter for a 14-minute appearance in a donor's living room: not normal. A party convention where actual politics happens: normal 40 years ago. Adjust your expectations folks, events are forcing change and that isn't bad.

Rimba Raya is an offset project so big that its possible failure could threaten global carbon markets. Here's how a political threat to one project in Indonesia is illustrating the precarity of the system as a whole. carbonplan.org/blog/rimba-r...

Sotomayor’s dissent was good because it cited examples of debates and statements where the “founders” explicitly said the president was subordinate to the law.

One of the last good things about this constitutional system: gone. bsky.app/profile/jaso...

The people to blame are the ones who got us to this point. Who were too risk averse, complacent, or cowardly to do hard things.

It’s totally legitimate to point out Biden’s clear frailty, considering where he would be in four years, and journalists aren’t in the business of keeping quiet about inconvenient realities.

Glad to see this piece on the New Popular Front from Piketty and Cagé. While almost all the attention has been on the gains by the right, the success of a unified left with an ambitious program seems like just as an important story from the French elections. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

For the first time, a non government official has been convicted of disseminating information the government deems secret. It’s another step back for press freedom, and more unaccountable power for the government.

NEW: California's largest oil well owners are set to merge after a shareholder vote next week.

A new law says one of them must put up $ to plug wells before. But the regulator won't say if it's done this.

The public could be on the hook for billions in cleanup:
