I have been told my idea for getting people's attention is "silly", so how about someone else

figure out how to do it, please!

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216223286





Who HERE has access to Schumer or Katie Porter or Adam Schiff and others like that???

PLEASE tell them they must try to get interviewed by one of the main TV media outlets and LOUDLY tell Americans they must DEMAND trump accept his loss, they must DEMAND republicans vote for people to have the right to fucking VOTE and accidentally let the F word slip out so it MAKES NEWS FOR FUCK SAKE!



And then tell their audience to DEMAND that people hold politicians who wont mandate vaccines and masks GOD DAMN ACCOUNTABLE!

I know they cant just conjure up cameras and networks, but they need to do this and they need to MAKE NEWS by accidentally (but planned of course and rehearsed) letting the F word slip while LOUDLY urging this.

Between Covid and the fascist MAGA movement, we are almost completely out of time.

ps

the whole point is NOT to get the attention of other democrats or liberals, people already paying attention...the point is to make NEWS by doing it so the half of the country who has no clue the trouble we are in might hear about it.




Or should we just not even try...

Why is Louis DeJoy still running the USPS? I thought the guy that had to leave

so patriots could vote to get rid of the traitor that he had left at the end of December?

Anyone know?

Relative of mine lives in No.Cal. and has PG&E and says gas rates up more than double this month?

My relative doesn't have an account here and asked me to ask if anyone here uses PGE.com to monitor their usage and costs. That on their website you can look at

"energy usage details
" ...

and from there it will show you both electricity use and cost and gas use and cost, she says that her gas per therm cost was always around $2 for tier one and that this screen she is looking at now says it is $4.50 per therm, tier one.

This would be a more than double increase and she said her bill would be around $500 instead of $200 normally for the month at these rates. Also i guess there is a "projected bill" button and she says it says her bill will be $1089 for the month of January. Not sure what that is about.

On Friday she used 3.2 therms and is being charged $16.70 for that one day, but last month she used 3.2 therms a few times and each time the charge was $6.60.

It actually says on the page for this month that tier one gas is now $4.50 where it was $2.08 per therm up until now.

Wow, I hope this is incorrect for her sake and everyone else in CA. She is hoping anyone else when they look at this will see the same thing which will mean it is not only her and hopefully a glitch, because it would not be possible I would think for them to raise it more than double without PUC approval and there would be lots of news stories about it, etc.

So if anyone here uses the PGE site and can look at what theirs says, please do and report back.


EDIT January 3, 2022

She contacted PGE and they confirmed that the site does have a glitch, that they know about it (although the person at PGE who answered the phone did not know about it but she had her wait on the line and checked into it, took her a while she said but then came back and said yes, they are aware of this) and the bills will reflect the correct rates and not these inflated numbers shown on the site.
