Climate change is real, no matter what Donald Trump says. Today’s anti-science decision to undo years of work gives giant polluters free rein to poison the air we breathe and the water we drink with no consequences. Americans will die.
Breaking News: The Trump administration repealed the bedrock scientific finding that greenhouse gases threaten human life and well being, meaning that the EPA can no longer regulate them. nyti.ms/4rSszQu

Republican Thomas Massie: Many redactions I witnessed were done by the FBI, before Pam Bondi actually received the Epstein files. It’s illegal for the FBI to keep these files redacted. Kash Patel needs to answer some questions.

As Black History Month begins, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers who built this city into the “gorgeous mosaic” we call home.
Today, we reflect on the words of Mayor David Dinkins: our city’s first Black mayor (and a democratic socialist!).

Donald Trump and Pam Bondi once again violated the Constitution.
They’re wasting your tax dollars arresting journalists — while protecting pedophiles and the murderers of Renée Good and Alex Pretti.
That’s authoritarian bullshit.

What Trump just did in Georgia is illegal and a blatant attempt by Trump to manufacturer evidence to support his lies about the 2020 election. He must be impeached, now!

Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Three years ago, I was sworn in to be your governor using my grandfather’s bible and the bible of Fredrick Douglass.
Since then, we have moved Maryland forward by creating safer communities, protecting our neighbors and their rights, lowering costs, and much more.
We are leaving no one behind.

Lights coming on in Sussex Street: a favourite place in Cambridge, mixed media work (sold at a Cambridge Drawing Society exhibition). Buildings delightfully designed by architect E.R.Barrow in the 1920s and '30s. Green pantiles particularly effective.

So the American president who wanted to shoot American protestors in DC is so against shooting protesters in Iran that he will risk American troops getting shot in a war over it?
