“That Was Me, People”
The new U.N. report confirms that a repeat of Obama’s climate denialism will doom humanity — and at least a few Democrats may finally recognize that.

China’s trade messaging to Canada is clear: fall in line, or pay the price. But former diplomat @kovrig.bsky.social argues there’s power in refusing to bend, because enduring short-term pain means protecting long-term autonomy. thewalrus.ca/chinas-trade-ult...

DEVELOPING: Video out of Rialto shows an ICE agent accelerating a pickup truck straight at an unarmed man running on foot. He dodges at the last second, gets hit anyway, goes down, then is swarmed and detained.

Within 15 minutes today, I got two back-to-back notifications of deaths at ICE facilities.
28 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office. These facilities are overcrowded & are putting their own profits over health and safety. We need oversight & accountability NOW.

Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.
ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.
