Buffalo Police have opened a homicide investigation after Border Patrol agents abandoned a blind refugee miles from his home.

If confirmed, Border Patrol will have accounted for 33% of Buffalo's homicides this year.

Actually, I do know how to do this In retrospect, paying attention to polluters may be one of the best ways to understand what’s currently happening in the United States.

Fossil fuel cash isn't just funding the violence against Americans, it funds laws against peaceful protest.

The label 'domestic terrorist' has been used to unjustly attack peaceful environmental movements for a long time, just as it's being used now.

Sometimes very hard not to feel like the rest of the country has abandoned Minnesota. We STILL have ICE everywhere. Our schools, businesses, and economy are in profound crisis. But without Bovino here throwing tear gas, much of the country seems to not care at all what’s being done to us.

Act Now!

One of the things I love most is access to local rivers and streams where my family can plan and recreate. One of my favorite spots is lake winnipisaukee name in New Hampshire .

Will you share your love for clean water by acting to protect it today? app.sosha.ai/s/Bf2jxv6h

See what coordinated social pressure can look like

Just finished a @SoShaai session that totally reinforced it: small, coordinated groups can create powerful social pressure and actually drive real change! So inspiring. πŸ’₯ app.sosha.ai/s/hhyloM9i

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

πŸ‘€ If the NYC pension boards adopt the @nyccomptroller.bsky.social recommendations and move BlackRock's $42B mandate to other asset managers, it could be one of the most consequential climate-related actions ever taken by a pension fund in the US or anywhere in the world.

Protect our planet!

I just learned that more than 90% of new power installed worldwide is solar, and it's cheaper than coal, oil and gas!

But of course, Big Oil is putting corporate profits ahead of our health & saftey. Join me to demand a just cleank energy transition! share.sierraclub.org/s/S1zSQi0r

From the energy community on Reddit: Big oil’s shadow network pumped millions into Charlie Kirk’s culture war machine Explore this post and more from the energy community

An article from a site called "Clean Tech Times" about Charlie Kirk and Big Oil money is trending in r/energy on Reddit

It's a completely plagiarized, unauthorized, unlinked version of an article I published the day before

I have no idea what to do about it except complain. It's so fucked up.

Too often, pensions & other financial institutions make splashy "climate solutions" pledges with little transparency or credibility.

That’s why @sierraclub.org & partners just published new Principles for Climate Solutions Investments to guide what should (and shouldn't) count. πŸ”—πŸ‘‡

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

What happened to Charlie Kirk is also what happened to 20 children (ages 6 and 7) at the Sandy Hook Elementary School.

I don’t remember the right being this upset back thenβ€”do you? 🀨

The science is clear that fossil fuel fueled climate change is making heat waves, fires, floods, hurricanes, & extreme weather worse. Yet major news outlets, especially TV news, often fail to name the connection. Demand they do better! sc.org/EndClimateSilence

I can barley even bring myself to read articles about the 100s of people being held in the new Florida detension center without charges, without access to attorneys, and without the ability to contest their detention in court -- everyone know Trump and Congress trippled Ice's budget in the new bill.

And let me be clear and say voting is just a first step and far from all must be do. There's a lot more to advocacy outside of that, especially in the midst of this dumpterfire. And we would have had to under a Dem admin also. But not for literally everything. Because #Project2025 is 46% complete.

Folks who voted for Trump or refused to vote. You okay with all of this? Is this this what you wanted? Voting (and the massive privilege to not vote) has consequences.

But with horror show that is Trump rollbacks of decades environmental protections including Trump's EPA literally limiting its own ability to act on climate change. Actions which we KNOW, scientifically, will lead more storms, fires, floods, & deadly air pollution that will cause 1000s of deaths.

Y'all. I'm having a moment of feeling so much ANGER at all of the people who said the Harris and Trump were two sides of the same coin. (This is not excusing massive Dem faults). Just looking at administrative offices alone. 😫
