Oh the fancy soirées he will throw in his new ballroom, serving Big Macs and Diet Cokes. It will be ever so classy.

Oh honey! I still have Anthony’s letters. I’m so glad I could be there for you, my friend. Love you.

Gavin Newsom is holding a press conference today on redistricting and DHS agents have arrived masked up and in full gear. Many are armed with guns.

The Senate wants to immediately sell off 3 million acres of your public lands to billionaires. No hearings. No environmental review. No public input.

We’re fighting back. 100+ groups just told the Senate: HANDS OFF OUR PUBLIC LANDS.

My statement on DHS waiving 30 enviro laws to speed border wall construction:

"This waiver is another cynical attack by the Trump administration on border communities and wildlife, who deserve the same protections that prevail everywhere else in the country.

Yesterday, DHS waived dozens of enviro protection laws to rush construction of a border wall through rugged terrain in California.

Legal filings state that this section "presents some of the greatest topographic, geotechnical, and drainage challenges of any barrier project CBP has ever undertaken."

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Thank goodness for these humanitarian workers who refuse to give up.

Trump, asked if he plans to visit the crash site:

"What's the site, the water? You want me to go swimming?"

G’moring Brian!

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responds to Trump’s plan to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America:

“We are going to call the United States Mexican America; it sounds nice.”

The Air Force wants to dramatically increase low altitude combat training missions across Arizona’s wilderness areas, Tribal nations & wildlife refuges — a reckless plan that endangers communities & wildlife alike.

We’ll continue to fight this expansion every step of the way.

We just submitted comments opposing plans to build a new road through habitat for jaguars & ocelots in the Atascosa Mountains. Gov't analysis was riddled with errors & outright lies. They didn't even acknowledge the presence of an ocelot that was documented there this summer. 🧵

My heart goes out to you and your family, Glen. I’m very sorry.

I have young rascally cats and I haven’t decked my halls in two years! 😱

A Bateleur Eagle struts his stuff 🕺!

Bateleur Eagles are often seen standing upright in a "phoenix" pose, with their wings held out to the sides and tipped up as they turn to face the sun.

Their habitat ranges over most of Africa south of the Sahara Desert.
