I'm stunned by how easily these evil types get into influential positions with people who know they are acting contrary to the purpose of the reports!

ATTN GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES: The VA sent out an announcement with a link for employees to self-report their disabilities. I wouldn’t do this if I were you. They’ll likely use it to discriminate against you.

Do you trust this White Man, given the numerous betrayals of trust he has already perpetrated on Indigenous peoples & Canadians?

“I think” is how a system run by a king or a dictator works. Here, we have a rule of law that says no one, and that includes the government, can murder people on a whim because it “thinks” they’re up to no good.

The constitution says only Congress can declare war.

Trump Returns to Gasoline as Fuel of Choice for Cars, Gutting Biden’s Climate Policy

1. Cars are the biggest source of climate pollution in the country.

2. Transportation is the biggest household expense after rent/mortgage.

2. State and local gov't could cut these numbers by about 25% in five years without any federal policy.

Somebody solve this for me, what should we do? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.

As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

A guide to Carney’s Alberta pipeline deal | The Narwhal Prime Minister Mark Carney’s ‘grand bargain’ isn’t just about an Alberta pipeline —it also proposes rolling back a host of climate policies

#Carney weakens at least & climate policies w pipeline deal. Cuts pollution limits, allows more Tar Sands subsidies, clean electricity, methane, clean technology and carbon pricing.
“This is Canada working, this is co-operative federalism, this is Canada building,” Carney said.
Horse Puckey!!! 😡

Is Canada Adopting ICE Anti-Migrant Tactics? | The Tyee A raid on a major Calgary construction site has raised serious questions about the government’s approach.

Canada Border Services & Calgary police swooped on new arena constructn site search of undocumented workers. Questions re if police should be doing immigration enforcement. In US it’s common that police depts don’t want to engage w immigration enforcement - it destroys trust w immigrant communities.

Danielle Smith Wins Even If a Pipeline Is Never Built | The Tyee The deal with Carney boosts the premier. But a lot of people are going to hate it.

Premier Dani doesn’t need pipeline to BC, just PM Carney to promise she can have one, w sketchy details. Then she could call an early election and get her United Conservative Party re-elected based on her success pushing Canada’s new Liberal PM around with her sly threats of sovereignty association.

Yes, but pls note new UK policy is not as good as it appears at first. Yes it deals with the UK as a long-term FF producer; however same North Sea plan locks in gas (increasingly LNG) based carbon capture as a way to transition potentially increasing UK FF consumption

As always, I'm surprised that talk of our interconnected European and Mediterranean relationship and security omits mention of climate change impacts and the absolutely catastrophic situation that will affect North Africa in the coming decades: tens of millions of displaced people forced to migrate.

The basic policymaker mental model for climate action assumes:

- maintaining status quo is a win
- we have plenty of time
- electricity is the only source of pollution

All 3 are false, to the benefit of the wealthiest enterprise in human history, at the expense of all life on earth (including us)

“Protecting children and future generations from climate disasters can make life better and more affordable now,” said Eric Doherty, BC Climate Emergency Campaign transportation working group lead #bcpoli #cleanbc

The Coalition’s net-zero implosion was a useful distraction — everyone (including the PM) hid behind it If the Coalition keeps up its brainless theatrics, companies and governments alike will have a clear runway to do absolutely nothing on climate.

Pictures of a pink sea anemone sitting on top of a hermit crab shell.

Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.

In-fucking-furiating. Imagine overcoming the significant hurdles as a woman in the military (it's well known they have to be basically perfect) already and then this admin comes along???

At ‘hush-hush’ MAHA summit, RFK Jr. and deputies to mix with biotech leaders A who's who of MAHA federal officials will be speaking at an event, stacked with industry executives and activists, organized largely in secrecy.

Fantastic reporting from STAT.

In a normal world this would be a scandal on the front page of every news outlet.

Government regulators hold secret, invite only meeting with industry heads they are supposed to be regulating.
