This is what @jamisonfoser.bsky.social calls "privileging the lie" – the headline is the lie, "Experts disagree," i.e it's bullshit, doesn't appear until paragraph 7.www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202…

Why has the right rushed to politicize the LA fires? In part because attention is the currency and attacking the left a guaranteed money-maker. But in part because saying "climate change" is interpreted as a political assertion from the left. http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202…

$1,131,794,901That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.Well, the planet is burning.Don't let them look away.

On the day that Trump declared his opposition to any wind energy development, climate-change fueled wildfires were spreading quickly across Los Angeles. The past 24 hours offer an important distillation of the next president's politics. http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202…
