Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

This is my synagogue & the conspiracies about why Zohran is appearing today are wild First, all major candidates were invited. (Sliwa is speaking tonight.) Was he supposed to come over the high holidays? Can't imagine people would've been okay with that. It's 3 weeks before the election. It's fine.

Do Zionists still think protesting outside a synagogue is antisemitic?
Screenshot from Tali Goldscheft: PROTEST today at 1 pm!!! 📢📢📢 At the same time as hostages are hopefully being finally released, Zohran Mamdani is speaking at CBE (Congregation Beth Elohim) in Park Slope. Beyond outrageous. A major protest by the Brooklyn Jewish community, including CBE congregants and former congregants, will be taking place. IN BROOKLYN? Join us, rain or shine!!!

High resolution images from satellite and from eddy-resolving ocean circulation models point to an ongoing decline of the Atlantic overturning circulation, a key ocean current for our climate. Read more about it in my new blog article. 🌊

The #AMOC is the reason for Europe’s mild climate. Evidence that it is slowing has been piling up over the years – it now is likely at its weakest in at least a millennium, and it may even be approach...

Great one minute summary of the climate impact from decreasing maritime stratocumulous clouds.

Above warmer oceans, clouds evaporate faster, exposing the dark ocean to direct sunlight, leading to even more warming.

And decreased air pollution from ships reduces cloud droplets and their size:

It is really wild how underdeveloped this model is, but there is also a massive amount of opportunity.

NEW ANALYSIS: More than 80% of UK social housing still relies on gas boilers keeping bills exposed to international gas markets and climate targets out of reach.

I’ve explored how other European countries are tackling this at scale, and what the UK can learn.

What horrifies me about this is that it is highly unlikely intelligence services etc didn’t know about Epstein’s activities long before this which means that child abuse is just something to turn a blind eye to (see also Cyril Smith, Al Fayed etc etc)
Guardian story - Tony Blair Tony Blair met Jeffrey Epstein in No 10 on advice of Peter Mandelson, documents reveal National Archives papers show how then MP pushed for 2002 meeting between PM and 'young and vibrant' financier
