Democrats self-examine, but not the media
One group apparently having no regrets, remorse or even self- reflection are the media, which overwhelmingly favored Kamala Harris for president. CBS News reporter John Dickerson shed tears during a post-election appearance on Stephen Colbert’s show, saying he would struggle not to think about his boys when describing election results to young Americans. That poll, constantly touted by the media as reliable, claimed Harris was ahead of Trump by three points just days before the election. Few Democrats are suggesting it was their policies most voters rejected and need to be changed. If Democrats remain on the road of denial the 2024 results are likely to be repeated in future elections.

California’s Progressive Struggle: Will Newsom Keep Energy Prices High To Beat Trump’s Cheaper Plan?
New Energy PlansTrump has vowed to "unleash" U.S. energy production, focusing on increasing oil and gas output.

Legal Battles: California is preparing for potential legal conflicts with the Trump administration over environmental policies. Overall, Trump's energy policies appear to be in direct opposition to Governor Newsom's progressive environmental agenda and California's efforts to combat climate change. While some Californians might benefit from potentially lower energy prices, the state is likely to face significant challenges in maintaining its environmental standards and clean energy goals under a Trump administration.
