Over the past two decades, solar power has been undergoing a revolution. Billions of panels have been shipped to all parts of the globe. Lined up in vast arrays out in the desert and tucked away on discreet rooftops, they've been turning sunlight into terawatts of power.

Donald Trump has run for US president twice already, and both times he was the loser in terms of sheer number of votes across the country. The reason he became president in 2016, despite losing the popular vote to Hillary Clinton, is because the election winner is actually determined through a system called the Electoral College. In the 2024 race, national polls show Trump in a neck-and-neck race with Kamala Harris. Either one could take out a majority of votes nationwide.

We also developed a way to track millions of dollars worth of gifts given on TikTok Live and visited a streamer at home while she was working.
