Colorado mountain towns see a rare summer slump in visitors as statewide tourism slows Colorado hosted 95.4 million visitors who spent $28.4 billion in 2024, an increase credited largely to daytrippers

Travel and tourism is 3% of our country’s GDP and provides nearly 10 million jobs. People in the industry need to be sounding the alarm instead of worrying about appearing non-partisan.

The White House has instructed NASA to terminate two major, climate change-focused satellite missions. They've been collecting widely-used data, providing both oil and gas companies and farmers with detailed information about the distribution of carbon dioxide and how it can affect crop health.

So the malignant narcissist who just cannot tell the Truth also cannot do Math & was forbidden to be in charge of any more charities in NY, convicted of financial fraud in two trials & has at least 6 Bankruptcies...

... is BY HIMSELF in charge of our Nation's Economy????‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

What's more, you should also be aware that the Texas Constitution allows for members of the legislature to break a quorum. They are literally not doing anything illegal. When Abbott says he will vacate their positions and fill them with his own appointees, he doesn't have the authority to do so.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "Texas Democrats are showing these blue state Democrats how to have a backbone, how to have a spine, how to meet this historic moment. We're in the minority in Texas, but we're still using every single tool in our toolbox, including this quorum break, to fight."

I wonder if the DO SOMETHING crew will help financially support the TX Democrats who are doing something? 🤔

disgusting

🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon & adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

I doubt ICE requires a college degree.

Just atrocious. And people with power believe stuff like this! Btw I made an alternate list.

This means that no matter what anyone says, keep shitting on AI.

If companies see it as bad publicity, the technology is dead in the water.

Crockett: Listen, Donald Trump is a piece of shit—we know that. But in a functioning democracy, he still wouldn’t be able to get away with this. He’s been able to get away with it because Republicans are complicit and—most importantly—the Supreme Court is complicit.

Doctors urged to treat pain for IUD insertion and other procedures A major medical group now recommends pain-blocking treatments for IUD insertion and other procedures amid a growing recognition that women's pain should be treated.

Glad to see that someone is doing something about this, but I suspect this is just the tip of the needle of untreated, unacknowledged medical procedure pain. Two kinds that I can attest to: bone marrow extraction and insertion of devices into bladder. #medsky #iud #acog

The Out Cry of Americans won.

Banning books, covering for a pedophile, forcing women to give birth, redefining slavery & killing democracy is what passes for Republican leadership.

Expecting them to solve the nation’s problems is like expecting cigarettes to cure cancer.🙄

My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.

Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.

It’s time to fight back.
