NATIONAL DAY of ACTION VIRTUAL ONLINE SATURDAY, MARCH 7TH, 12:00PM - 3:00PM
We're hosting a virtual rally for those who are not able to attend a March 7th National Day of Action event in person. We don't think structural barriers should prevent anyone from being able to participate in a movement that directly impacts their lives.
(1/2🧵)
Stand Up For Science
Noon tomorrow
UNC campus
See you there nerds.

The United States had a deal that could have prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
Donald Trump ripped that deal up and got nothing in return.
RTP folks: Join Stand Up for Science at noon at UNC 🧪

Been waiting for someone to update the "Wedges" from Pacala and Socolow for a long time (which saves me having to do it). Great classroom activity if nothing else.
Kudos to Nathan Johnson and @iain-staffell.bsky.social for doing so and including options down to net-zero.
She did what he asked her to do.
Yes she should be fired.
But we all know the real person who should be fired.

after absolutely eviscerating Kristi Noem and calling for her resignation, Tillis is applauded. He thens threatens to hold up nominees if she doesn't stop stonewalling him. My God.

CNN's @natashabertrand.bsky.social reporting rumored rationale that Iran was about to strike us first, preemptively, is not accurate to US sources she's spoken with.
VERY important because that would be a reason to not go to Congress first - imminent threat to US forces.

An Epstein survivor made serious allegations against President Trump that she says happened when she was a minor — serious enough that the FBI interviewed her multiple times.
Yet, those files have now gone missing. There has never been a bigger cover up in modern American history. End it now.
Trump's proposed EO is a deeply worrying sign that his administration may interfere with the upcoming midterm elections.
The administration has NO authority to do such a thing, particularly on the basis of a fabricated emergency.
A draft emergency executive order to declare a national emergency to allow President Donald Trump to take unprecedented control over voting is being circulating by anti-voting activists who said they are in coordination with the White House. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Exclusive: Pro-Trump activists are circulating a draft executive order alleging Chinese interference in the 2020 election, proposing a national emergency to expand presidential power over voting, like banning mail ballots and voting machines.

"ICE is teaching cadets to violate the Constitution"
Congress should not fund an agency intent on breaking the law.
Training for New ICE Agents Is ‘Deficient’ and ‘Broken,’ Whistle-Blower Says www.nytimes.com/2026/02/23/u...
BREAKING
Former ICE agent:
On my first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.
It’s a week later but I haven’t forgotten that President Trump is trying to arrest leaders in Congress who oppose him politically. Never before in the history of the country has this happened. And we shouldn’t normalize it.

"...the percentage of Americans who are either Alarmed or Concerned has increased from 42% in 2015 to 52% in 2025.
The Disengaged, Doubtful, and Dismissive audiences have each remained relatively stable in size over the last decade."
A timely response to EPA. It's remarkable that this has to be written, but good that it is.

"Any resulting shift by American automakers toward gas guzzlers that can’t be sold in Europe or China could further isolate the U.S. market. And the United States would increasingly cede the future of automotive technology to Chinese electric vehicle giants like BYD,."

(around an image of a masked ICE agent holding a gun) Republicans "One Big Beautiful Bill' nearly tripled funding for ICE. That money came from your benefits: paid for by cuts to reproductive health care paid for by cuts to Medicare & Medicaid paid for by cuts to SNAP paid for by cuts to clean energy projects paid for by cuts to obesity prevention paid for by cuts to disaster response paid for by cuts to energy tax credits

The EPA has considered these comments and, in this final action, is not finalizing the alternative climate science rationale and is not finalizing new findings by the Administrator with respect to global climate change concerns under CAA section 202(a)(1). The EPA does not rely on any specific critique of climate science as a necessary justification for this action. Given our conclusion that we lack legal authority to regulate in response to global climate change concerns under CAA section 202(a)(1), it would be unnecessary and inappropriate to resolve such questions in this regulatory context. The EPA includes this section to summarize major scientific themes commenters raised and to acknowledge that scientific research and debate about climate change will continue. This discussion does not endorse or reject any particular assessment, study, or comment letter in the docket with respect to assertions regarding global climate change science and has limited its responses to the bases being finalized in this final action. The EPA’s conclusion in this final action is limited to the legal determination that CAA section 202(a) does not provide the authority to regulate GHG emissions from new motor vehicles or new motor vehicle engines for the purpose of addressing global climate change concerns, irrespective of how ongoing scientific debates are ultimately resolved.
As expected, in the final rule, EPA's Endangerment Finding repeal backs down entirely from challenging the science, choosing to focus on statutory arguments regarding EPA's authority. Good work, everyone who contributed to the @andrewdessler.com review!
