It’s hard to believe a president would time an illegal military attack to distract the public’s attention, but today is the statutory deadline for DOJ to release its report on the Epstein file production. Maybe it is just a coincidence.

Just naked and brazen corruption. All states represented by Democrats in the Senate.
Time to stiffen our spines and demand that we only fund a government that obeys the law.

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, *massive.*
Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!
Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels

"No Kings Day" protests turn out millions
Our unofficial estimate is that around 4 million people attended a protest event yesterday. Anti-Trump resistance is outpacing 2017.

Wild story confirming that the Trump admin has agreed to allow 17 family members of a Sinaloa Cartel leader Ovidio Guzman to enter the United States legally (potentially on humanitarian parole), likely as a deal getting him to cooperate with DOJ against the cartel in court.

If you stop collecting weather & climate data it does not have an impact on rising GHGs. They will still continue to grow if we continue to burn fossil fuels. And it certainly won't end droughts, floods, or extreme weather events. It will just make us less prepared for those disasters. 🧪🌊🔌💡☀️💨🔋

Today it is nearing 600.

A hard choice for many of these institutions. Especially earliest signers, who had no idea how much company they'd have.
But people keep standing up.

Good thing RFK Jr cut the CDC lead poisoning prevention team & wants to ban fluoride.
