This comes after Trump promised the oil executives he’d end all decarbonization efforts in exchange for a billion dollars, and made it possible for Trump to start outraising Biden for the first time

If you’re reading this, and you’re an American, it’s on you to actually be a counterweight to this. That means:

  • Make sure you’re registered to vote — you’ll need to register for the first time if you turned 18, and will need to update yours if you moved, changed name, or simply had your registration purged by Republican officials
  • Volunteer. Phone banking and such are help, but if you’re able to, travel to volunteer in-person and talk to people.
  • Donate. Give what’s ok for you, not more. If you’re well-off enough to show up for an in-person fundraiser and tell officials why you’re donating, that’s amazing.

    Pretty obvious they took a W for trump and made it an L for Biden.

    edit: the new title is “Biden and Big Oil Had a Truce. Now, It’s Collapsing.” so you don’t have to give NYT a click.

      I personally don’t really see that as a loss. There is no place for a truce with the fossil fuel industry, they need to be made completely unprofitable.

      But I do have an issue with it not focusing as much on the corruption of Trump and the FF industry.
