Hours after Border Patrol swept through Charlotte, protesters filled uptown with courage, not fear. They marched peacefully, stood united, and refused to be intimidated.
Charlotte showed up.
And it showed strength.💪

"Warming is going to exceed 1.5°C. We are heading into overshoot within the next few years": a stark message by PIK Director Rockström & James Dyke in @theconversation.com. Yet, science shows a way back: fossil-fuel phase-out, nature protection, carbon removal.

The world lost the climate gamble. Now it faces a dangerous new reality
The world bet on collective but voluntary action to keep global warming at a safe level.

Those who aided and abetted an arsonist are now expressing shock that the city is turning to ashes. The very people whose support for Trump’s reelection paved the way for the rise of what they call the “fascistic, neo-Nazi, radical right” are now in a panic. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

I'd recommend not overanalyzing the bizarre Trump presser with Mamdani today. Trump was enraged about the Epstein Files, expressed that rage by threatening to k*ll members of Congress, realized he went too far and opted to play nice with a man he falsely calls a Communist to get a day of good press.
