“The Dark Money Game” shines a spotlight on FirstEnergy’s bribes-for-bailouts scheme in Ohio just days after President Trump revived a failed push to use federal emergency powers to bail out coal-fired power plants that FirstEnergy lobbied for extensively during Trump’s first term.

FirstEnergy secretly paid $60 million to 501(c)(4) Generation Now that plead guilty to racketeering in 2021.

"The history's well established & irrefutable: #OilAndGas knew exactly what #ClimateChange is, its relationship to their product & exactly how dire it would get for nearly 50 years now, at a minimum.

#Trump #tarrifs forcing #Pakistan to divert hard earned cash reserves to the american regime.

Naked attempt to pause Pak's exemplary #EnergyTransition, and force us to buy American oil in a deal to have the tarrifs removed.

Why couldn't they offer us solar panels instead? Oh wait.

We have a huge American hangover. Its past time we tried "balancing" between the US and China and rework our policies to reflect a multipolar world.

"#BigOil, the billionaires & their legions of puppets all have very direct, clear reasons to maintain this broken & burning status quo. The only thing that can stop them remains US. They have all the money but there's way more of us than them. The battle for #HeartsAndMinds never had higher stakes"

"It's a hearts & minds thing. #BigOil has always understood that & we'd better get smart about it fast. As for talking about #ClimateChange, it wasn't even the right time to talk about it during the #LAWildfires, which came with $250 billion worth of damages. That's if money's all you care about."
