EPA suspends and investigates around 140 employees who signed a letter critical of the agency | CNN EPA administrator Lee Zeldin had a sharp response to the employee-signed letter.

No one should be suspended or fired just for exercising their First Amendment right to speak out.

I’m joining my colleagues in calling for these EPA employees to be reinstated immediately so they can keep doing the good work our country depends on.

Satellite image of an industrial landscape with a purple heatmap plume showing methane emissions. The text says β€˜Invisible, planet-warming methane identified by satellite alerts,’ and the UNEP logo appears in the top right corner.

To slow global warming, methane emissions must be reduced by at least 30% this decade, but emissions remain high.

UNEP’s Methane Alert & Response System uses satellites to alert governments and companies of major leaks in real time.

i have been thinking a lot about how the entire concept of β€œthe deal” is antithetical to transparency, fair play and rule of law, as larry notes. the deal is necessarily nonstandard, ad hoc and dependent on the whims of the dealmaker

Not surprised to see Aileen Cannon sealing all evidence regarding the orange felon’s fake assassination attempt involving Ryan Routh since she’s yet another criminal who was installed to help cover up for the orange felon just like Pam Bondi has done with the Epstein files.

The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didn’t). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesn’t). The jobs numbers were rigged (they weren’t).

I could say something funny here, but I won’t. It’s just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.

How redistricting in Texas and other states could change the game for US House elections Redistricting usually happens after the once-a-decade population count by the U.S. Census Bureau or in response to a court ruling.

This should not be a β€œgame” at all. We need a third party to draw objective districts.
