Epstein Alleged in Emails That Trump Knew of His Conduct

Whoa

I’m near Edmonton, Alberta. The records show quite a range of temperatures for this part of November but it looks like it’s becoming more erratic from year to year between high and low temperatures.

Is this an anomaly or more indicative of a trend?

The dementia goes hand in glove with congestive heart disease, seen this rodeo before.

Did the “movement” to the right coincide with more media coverage being owned and controlled by a smaller number of billionaires?

Some good news!

Hermann Goring took no direct role in any murder in Nazi Germany, but he did turn the parliamentary body into a rubber stamp institution and he did enable Hitler's crimes against humanity. For it, he was sentenced to death at Nerumberg. I'm sending Mike Johnson a book about him.

If Smith uses the Notwithstanding clause to force the teachers back to work then all unions in Alberta need to stand with the teachers (ATA)

If they don't it will be the end of the union movement in Alberta, and Canada

Just my opinion 🤷🏼‍♂️

It’s all theatre and drama from the GOP when they get caught doing the opposite of what they claim to believe in. It’s actually quite funny to hear Reagan’s speech used against Trump’s big beautiful lies.

Reagan Foundation becomes the latest US institution drawn into Donald Trump's controversies The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is drawing a volatile mix of blowback and praise for arguing that a Canadian government advertisement playing in U.S.

‘presidential remarks [are] in the public domain, meaning no one must seek permission from presidential foundations or libraries to redistribute them.
So how can the Reagan Foundation "review legal options"? Did Trump tell them to say that? Shame on them.

“I Have Lost Everything”: The Toll of Cities’ Homeless Sweeps Cities often take belongings — including important documents and irreplaceable mementos — when they conduct sweeps of homeless encampments. ProPublica gave notecards to people across the country so th...

We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose.

“They took my baby pictures and my moms obituaries,” a man in California wrote.

bike lanes are not only useful to cyclists, they’re are also useful to emergency vehicles.

I’ve said this long before on “that other place” that Trump has dementia, the symptoms are unmistakable once one has watched older relatives become ever more damaged by the progression of dementia. It’s subtle at first but it snowballs as time passes. There won’t be any doubt in a couple of months.

Why isn’t every large account warning about the “network state” movement? In August, “network state” leader Balaji Srinivassan—a close ally of Peter Thiel & Marc Andreessen—wrote that, “When Bitcoin wins,” it “ends the Fed,” the “battle begins,” & “it's time to build”. 1/

If you are not aware of the crypto-fascist empire being built (in both senses of crypto), you're not paying attention.

South Koreans held their government accountable earlier this year. And now they’re protesting for American’s rights and democracy on No Kings too!

We now *know* what to do to stop climate change.

Project Drawdown has analyzed trillions of data points, spent tens of thousands of hours, and has done the hard work to find evidence-based solutions.

No more handwaving. No more greenwashing. Just science.

And we're giving it away for *free*.

🌊 New study suggests climate change may supercharge ENSO into a stronger, more regular rhythm, syncing with other global climate patterns to trigger extreme, rapid swings in hydroclimate.

Think climate “whiplash”, not just warming.

Hundreds airlifted from storm-battered Western Alaska villages in historic evacuation The Alaska Airlines Center arena at the University of Alaska Anchorage will shelter 300 displaced residents starting Wednesday evening, the American Red Cross said.

It can't be overemphasised how much of a disaster is happening in western AK right now. Kipnuk and Kwigillingok are evacuating, with people only allowed to bring one bag and being forced to leave everything else (including their pets).

Are biofuels a good idea? Only if you're a farmer or shipping company The rush to grow more biofuels continues, despite the fact they increase CO2 emissions rather than lower them, raise food prices and devastate nature. It has to stop, says Michael Le Page

According to a recent report, the use of biofuels ⛽ worldwide has increased CO2 emissions by 16% 🧪

Increased, instead of decreased! Plus biofuels are driving up food prices 💶 and helping to destroy biodiversity. This is utter madness
