At Third Act @thirdactorg.bsky.social we are by definition older Americans. We've seen more stuff than most people.

But we've never seen the president demand the execution of members of Congress.

We must help people see that Climate is a political issue. These drastic changes in weather are harming people in the USA and across the world. This story of the devastation to parts of Alaska is important and should be read by many.

Good analysis. Terrible how the wealthy fossil fuel industry continues to exert such control even at the very places where people gather to save our planet.

COP30 Barely Delivers, Rich Nations Continue to Force Inequitable Climate Outcomes COP30 barely delivers on adaptation, climate finance, fossil fuel phaseout, but important just transition progress made

โ€œCOP30 was supposed to be the COP of truth and implementation. Unless nations reckon with the ugly truths revealed here, there will be major repercussions for multilateral climate agreements and more importantly, for the lives of communities who are on the frontlines of the climate crisis.โ€

I'm still waiting for my $5,000 DOGE check...
My George Soros protesting check...
and my $2,000 tarriff check.

Is it because the mail is unreliable?
Should I be concerned?

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

I will never forget having to edit Jamalโ€™s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

This is so true. It stopped being about parties a while ago. Republicans, democrats and independents who love our country, understand our democracy, and care about fellow citizens are standing together.
