DOE coal

The Department of Energy issued a second “emergency” order to keep the last coal plant in Washington open for another 90 days, doing its best to raise electricity and health costs for central Washington.

Tesla Robotaxi hero

Tesla filed one new “Robotaxi” crash report with NHTSA in its February submission, bringing the total to 15 incidents since the program launched in Austin in June 2025. That’s a significant drop from the five crashes reported in the last report, but without specific mileage data from Tesla, there’s no way to determine whether the fleet is actually getting safer.

The new incident involved a Model Y hitting a fixed object at 9 mph in January 2026 with the autonomous driving system engaged. No injuries were reported.

Elon Musk announced on Saturday that Tesla’s “Terafab Project”, a plan to build what he envisions as the world’s largest semiconductor fabrication plant, will launch within seven days.
