This week, Professor James Hansen and colleagues published projections that the global temperature record could reach +1.7°C by 2027.
And if that number lands in your gut the way it landed in mine, good. It should.

“This document proves if the FBI had done its job in 1996, Epstein’s decades-long sex trafficking operation could have been stopped at the outset... the FBI’s negligence allowed Epstein to continue abusing hundreds of girls and young women for nearly 25 more years.”

Mass deportations don’t protect working people—they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers.

An attack on immigrant workers is an attack on ALL workers. @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social

BRENNAN: What are you going to do to force DOJ to comply?

MASSIE: The quickest way and most expeditious way to get justice for these victims is to bring inherent contempt against Pam Bondi. That doesn't require going through the courts. We're drafting that right now.

Don’t be fooled. This isn’t a family of crime fighters.
It’s a family with a slave-catcher mindset, and they made a money move.

WTF? ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security.

When you do stuff like this and it isn't covered as the massive scandal it should be, the permission structure to do equally awful stuff is quite high.

I’m not watching the speech tonight.
I don’t want to hear that child rapist lie about the economy-we know the truth.
I don’t want to hear him as he justifies dragging us into war, killing innocent people.
I don’t want to hear him defend ICE.
He stole our healthcare.
I do not want to hear him.

MAGA absolutely HATES George W Bush for starting a foreign war to protect American oil interests.

But MAGA loves Donald J Trump for... *checks notes*... starting a foreign war to protect American oil interests.

The blockade of Venezuela is a disgusting echo of U.S. imperialism in Latin America. We were lied to about Iraq and WMDs, and an entire generation paid the price.

Here we are again.

We cannot let a wannabe dictator drag us into another forever war.
