Using official White House platforms to shame news organizations for their reporting is unconstitutional government retaliation against the press.

Three reasons to avoid cutting back dead stems and seed heads this winter:
🐞 Hollow stems provide homes for hibernating insects, such as lacewings and ladybirds
🌻 Birds feed on seed heads like teasels, sunflowers and thistles
❄️ They look good when dusted with frost or snow!

Note—every time a Federal judge rules against Trump, Trump claims "the judge is usurping the President's power."

That's a lie.

Judge's don't "usurp" POTUS's power—they enforce Constitutional & Congressional limits on power.

Wannabe kings don't like it, but that's how separation of powers works.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Final words for this COP: #IndigenousPeoples reminded us all that the protection of environmental defenders & Indigenous communities is an obligation grounded in international law, stronger than any fragile political outcome & than any restrictions suffered by them at these talks.

🚨 At #COP30’s closing plenary, Colombia refused to approve the decision on the mitigation work programme unless fossil fuel language was included.

Several climate-vulnerable states demanded more ambition & public finance for climate adaptation.

This is fu*king outrageous!

The federal government on Saturday dismissed charges against a Utah plastic surgeon accused of throwing away COVID-19 vaccines, giving children saline shots instead of the vaccine and selling faked vaccination cards.

The Washington Post editorial board decided the Epstein files have “no public interest” before even seeing them. That’s a stunning position for any newsroom to take. Praising Clay Higgins as the lone ‘no’ vote, too? No wonder no one trusts legacy media. Absolutely disgusting.

Dipshit is smashing out a car window with his gun, barrel first. Just rogue, cowboy stiff.

There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

However, most countries didn't want to give up their money or their power. Rich countries once again dodged responsibility and shielded fossil fuels, and there's no agreed figure for global finance commitments.

But people power was loud in Belém, led by Indigenous and frontline voices ✊

The #COP30 Mutirão decision is here. On the one hand, we had the COP30 President speak in the closing plenary about the need for a roadmap to phase out fossil fuels.

On the other hand, no such roadmap appeared in the final text.

And what does the science say? It is clear. We must phase out fossil fuels not for the sake of the planet, but to ensure a livable future for us all. And "all" includes the inhabitants of those countries who prevented this phrase from being included in the final agreement.

After two weeks of #COP30 negotiations, countries agreed to BEGIN DISCUSSIONS on fossil fuel phase out. And as the article says, "they achieved this incremental progress only in the teeth of implacable opposition from oil-producing countries."

THIS is the problem with requiring unanimous decisions.
