Oceans continue to warm
Meanwhile this govt are pushing through bills to disband the Ministry of Environment #NZ #nzpol

"This elite circle of abuse is another manifestation of the problem we’re trying to address—the extreme concentration of wealth and power that is destroying our society. Wealth becomes power, power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
Very good statement on the ways that extreme wealth/power concentration breeds depravity.

The Right love to go on about meritocracy, and yet:
"...no recruitment process, no selection panel and no rival candidates.
The appointment amounted to a simple "Cabinet confirmation".
The revelation came on Friday in response to written questions to the government from the Green Party."

Gandalf really is heroic when you consider that there were originally five wizards and one of them turned evil, two of them fucked off and went out east to have orgies, and one is just super into talking to gophers. The one last hope of free peoples was the stoner and that crazy mfer did it.

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more agents than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries.
It does this by stripping food away from children, the disabled, and the working poor.
Not one more penny.
