This is what’s really big news. The Epstein saga is what may (please God) remove this evil administration that has sold out to the fossil fuel industry and is actively making this planet harder to live on.

Environmental protection = human health protection.

First, the frogs died. Then people got sick. An emerging area of research is uncovering hidden links between nature and human health.

10 Musicians Who Went on to a Second Act in Politics If Zohran Mamdani wins his mayoral race in New York City, he’ll join the ranks of other rappers and rockers who have held elected office in the U.S.

Thanks to Jody Nardone for spotting this.

Nope. Quit burning carbon fuels. Cloud seeding has been happening as a local strategy almost since the Wright brothers, mainly instigated by farmers. It doesn’t explain the rapid intensification of storms, or prodigious rainfall amounts we are seeing now.

Just for linguistic clarity, a radical Christian would be someone who throws the money-lenders out of the temple(or church) and ministers to the migrants, the poor, the homeless.

So: is President Trump going to have the US jump into Israel’s war with Iran? Are the Republican majorities in Congress going to abdicate their constitutional role and shrink into the shadows, surrendering even more legislative power to this executive branch? Is there a plan, an end game?

This president is determined to make us a low information country. 2025 is already looking like an extreme weather record-setter, but if NOAA and the NWS don’t keep records who’s going to know? www.bostonglobe.com/2025/05/19/n...

Trump just made it much harder to track the nation’s worst weather disasters β€” Ars Technica US abruptly stops tracking costs of the most devastating storms.

Cancelling NOAA’s collection of storm and climate data starting in 2025 will make it look like things are not getting worse. Too bad it’ll also make it harder to plan and prepare. apple.news/AakNF3yXkTJ6...

We should keep talking about climate. More Americans are experiencing extreme weather more often, and they need to connect that to DJT’s war on green energy and on NOAA and FEMA. There’s still a lot of educating to do. www.accuweather.com/en/severe-we...

If you wonder why men *obsessed* with the United States having more children are kidnapping children and sending them to other countries, those children were the incorrect color.
