Activate climate’s ‘silent majority’ to supercharge action, experts say Making concerned people aware their views are far from alone could unlock the change so urgently needed

A huge 89% majority of global people [56% even in the United States] want stronger action to fight the #ClimateCrisis, but mistakenly believe they’re in a minority.

People want action. Smart cities are taking action. Nations should support city action.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

You’re a coward and you sold us out, Schumer.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov

You suck at this.

Gold, Greed and Cowardice Trump's corporate and billionaire supporters are emboldening him as he pursues his path of destruction. History proves the future does not bode well for them.

“…a weak and broken man like Donald Trump cannot succeed without the support of rich and powerful enablers. From the feckless & compliant Republican Congress to the billionaires and corporate executives, money is just as essential to his success as obedience.”

Well he’s demolished it symbolically already, this is the next literal step.

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

America-hating Antifa showing up for a *second* time today.

The cruelest thing about the Trump/Kennedy pseudoscience press conference today is that there are now women who believe they caused their child’s autism.

To those women: you didn’t.

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:
He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group.

There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi.

He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism.

I recommend everyone watches this

hey the people that stormed the capitol and erected gallows to murder elected leaders want you to know that political violence is not ok

No, just no. This is disappointing.

In the meantime, investigators into the school shooting in Evergreen, Colorado have already said that there’s some evidence that he was radicalized by extremist networks.

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

The aging, latent police reporter in me can't help put pause to remark on the unforced error of the SAC in Salt Lake's FBI field office making the unforced error of announcing they have recovered a “footwear impression.” A shout-out to toss or destroy those shoes, ASAP.

That's a detail you keep.

A word to my brethren in the press corps:

Please notice that nearly all Democrats condemn violence while very few Republicans condemn violence, and please please please do not make these two unequal facts equal.

This is an important thread. It seems weirdly disrespectful to try to turn Kirk into something he clearly despised.

Charlie Kirk advocated for killing gay people

Implied that Black airline pilots weren’t qualified because they were DEI hires

Terrorized teachers by establishing a “professor watchlist”

He had the right to espouse these viewpoints and should never have been murdered

But this is who he was

Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring.

And then that guy was "silenced" forever.

And now we will just not talk about anything else until they...

I'm not loving a country that pays its adults half as much to teach children to spell as it does to kidnap them.

Sure he knows, right.
