I'm struggling to contain my anger over the government's handling of the ICE shooting in Dallas - specifically, the refusal to publicly identify three human beings who were killed or seriously wounded

These monsters do everything possible to dehumanize refugees. We can't let them get away with it

Families on Obamacare brace for higher health care premiums next year Tax credits made ACA plans affordable for middle-class families. They're set to expire at the end of this year.

Americans’ healthcare premiums are about to go up hundreds of dollars because Republicans in Congress care more about tax breaks for billionaires than healthcare for our families.

They can do something about it, but they're not.

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions.

Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy.

So no one can oppose any development, no matter the environmental cost? There’s good reason to oppose data centers- one being the huge amount of electricity they use. Or the pollution put out by diesel generators running for hours each day. This one facility will store 400,000 gallons of diesel.

At this point, these NASA employees fully understand that signing a letter like this means the Trump administration will likely fire them and even perhaps go after them personally

Yet rather than remain silent, they chose to speak up

They are heroes, one and all

Exxon spending tens of thousands of euro per week to sponsor Politico's 'sustainability' and the widely read (free) 'playbook' newsletters, pushing for more focus on plastic *recycling* instead of reducing plastic production

For oil & gas companies, plastic is a way to keep drilling and polluting
