I don’t want more racists in my state! And I don’t want a Connecticut Senator either.

A Dutch province has asked the US ambassador in the Netherlands to return two panels about African American soldiers to the visitors center of the Netherlands American Cemetery, located in Margraten (Limburg). The two panels were recently removed by the American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC).

Again, I lament the lack of actual journalists who could point things like this out to him.

I know they won't care, but I will not be watching @cbsnews.com or @60minutes.bsky.social anymore, and I wish everyone else would join me. They don't deserve ratings for not doing their job.

The Republican agenda: Make America Hungry Again.

A $186 BILLION cut from SNAP.
Lapse in benefits for over 40 MILLION Americans.
Only partially funding the SNAP program.

It’s just plain wrong.

A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

Thank you for everything that you do. Can we all amplify the hell out of this so we can possibly get the champion of Medicaid, Senator Bob Casey back into Congress where he belongs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was reliably told celebrating political violence was cause for government reprisal and private sector termination.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. β€” Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"

A method to identify positive tipping points to accelerate low-carbon transitions and actions to trigger them - Sustainability Science Meeting the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to β€œwell below 2 Β°C” requires a radical acceleration of action, as the global economy is decarbonising at least five times too slowly. Tipping point...

Positive tipping points for climate, like the UK phasing out coal, show how big steps toward a low-carbon future can suddenly become unstoppable.

Can we identify where the next tipping points could happen, and figure out how to help trigger them?

These researchers say YES.

Trump administration says it won't publish major climate change reports on NASA website as promised The Trump administration has made it harder for people, local and state governments to find critical climate change reports.

As I say here, β€œThis document was written for the American people, paid for by the taxpayers, and it contains vital information we need to keep ourselves safe in a changing climate, as the disasters that continue to mount demonstrate so tragically and clearly.”

Social Security's insolvency date is now a year earlier. Here's how it could impact your benefits. Social Security is dipping into its trust fund to pay current retirees, with spending outpacing its revenue from payroll taxes.

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS.

How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share.

I’ve got a bill to get it done.
