Any downside Nuclear Energy has, Fossil Fuel does worse

We should have started working on this decades ago, but now is the second best time to fix it.

Both fossil fuels and nuclear energy are bad, regardless of if one is slightly better than the other. We should be working towards an alternative solution--such as solar, wind, hydropower, and geothermal heat--so that we do not need to continue to use non-renewable energy sources.

 @BCBXYLV from Arizona  disagreed…2mos2MO

Nuclear Energy is one of the worst polluters for Earth, it destroys the sky's and makes it less likely to rebuild the Ozone layer.

 @BCC4BBY from Georgia  agreed…2mos2MO

We've reached a point within our current skills and knowledge of nuclear energy that it would most likely be even safer to invest in nuclear energy than fossil fuels. An example I can think of, is a comparison of the past and present being more akin to a hovel and a castle.

 @BCBWZBGRepublican from New York  agreed…2mos2MO

You can never get rid of Nuclear Energy. I disagree with this statement because we need it to fuel our country.

 @BCBWDSY from Kansas  agreed…2mos2MO

nuclear energy is actually one of the cleanest and effective ways to produce energy, as it leaves little to no waste. the waste that it does produce is also nontoxic.

 @BCBSF5Y from Wyoming  agreed…2mos2MO

I fully agree with this. Nuclear energy has and always will be the best energy source, and every day we dont start using it is a day where our planet is destroyed.

 @BCBM78Nfrom Maine  agreed…2mos2MO

Strongly agree. People have a bad taste in their mouth from Chornobyl and Fukushima, but maintaining our reactors, ensuring competence and not just party loyalty for managers, and properly planning our reactors and where they're built can prevent these issues.

 @BCBLBXXCommunist from Georgia  agreed…2mos2MO

Nuclear energy is cleaner than all other types of energy. It’s use is vital to the future of our world.

Bernie Sanders Charges Ahead As Democrats Stall Out

Bernie Sanders launched a tour in red states like Iowa and Nebraska to rally opposition to Donald Trump’s agenda, drawing massive crowds—thousands in Omaha and overflow audiences in Iowa City.Unlike the Democratic Party’s muted response to Trump’s election, Sanders is actively challenging the administration’s plutocratic policies, focusing on billionaire influence and federal deregulation.In Iowa City, Sanders spoke to packed venues, delivering back-to-back speeches to accommodate attendees, a first in his political career, highlighting his enduring appeal.He criticized Trump’s inner circle, including billionaires Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg, who attended the inauguration, and warned of their control over federal agencies.Sanders galvanized the crowd with historical references—suffrage, slavery, independence—urging grassroots action to counter Trump’s planned $1 trillion tax cuts for the rich and cuts to programs like Medicaid.Attendees expressed frustration with Democratic leaders like Hakeem Jeffries, calling their opposition to Trump weak or nonexistent, while praising Sanders for providing direction.Sanders highlighted the slim Republican House majority (three seats), suggesting constituent pressure could sway vulnerable GOP members to block Trump’s reconciliation bill.Early signs show GOP walkbacks—like Trump’s false claim Medicaid won’t be cut—after outrage over federal grant pauses disrupted services, proving grassroots impact.The crowd, mostly liberal, cheered Sanders’ defense of reproductive rights and jeered Trump’s USAID cuts and Zelensky attacks, though some noted a shift in his base—younger Trump supporters absent.Sanders ended with Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, framing the fight as a timeless struggle against billionaire rule, inspiring attendees like Audrey to re-engage and Erin to find hope in solidarity.
