Google claws back money from Turning Point-aligned PAC in SRP election Google asked a PAC supporting a pro-industry SRP slate to return its money and remove its name from all campaign materials.

Google asked Turning Point-aligned, pro-fossil fuels PAC to return its money and stop using its name in the SRP election. Google’s withdrawal is a sign that the tides are turning against Turning Point and our resistance is being noticed. www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/google-...

Clear Creek is one of Denton’s sacred third spaces - a place where neighbors gather, families explore, and the quiet of nature reminds us why we chose to call this city home.

Places like the Clear Creek Natural Heritage Center don’t happen by accident.

Tonight marks a turning point in NC. Voters in HD106 chose a future where working families thrive. For 15 years, extremists in Raleigh froze wages at $7.25, slashed taxes, and empowered Duke Energy. Tonight, North Charlotte said: enough is enough. Thank you HD106! πŸ’œ

December 2025 through February 2026 was the 2nd warmest winter on record for the Contiguous U.S. according to Prism climate data. The widespread record to near record warmth in the west easily outweighed the cool temps in the east. πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

States push climate superfund bills despite Trump’s opposition The legislation would make oil and gas firms pay for climate damages from burning their products. Trump has referred to such laws as β€œextortion.”

Trump is attacking states’ ability to take action on climate change.

These attacks have not stopped state legislatures from taking up legislation to make polluters pay for the damage they have caused. www.canarymedia.com/articles/cli...
