When you get home from work and it’s your Friday and you read the headlines. 15 minutes ago the US bombed Iran nuclear sites. Ah yes a perfect end to the work week. I wonder what kind of bullshit insanity comes next week in this perpetual cycle of awful because morons who don’t care voted in mass 🙃

Kinda disproves the whole narrative of “violent criminals only” but who could have seen this coming. Pretends to be shocked…
A masked gang that is grabbing up non-criminals from Walmart parking lots at a remarkable rate: “65 Percent of People Taken by ICE Had No Convictions, 93 Percent No Violent Convictions” Read @davidjbier.bsky.social: www.cato.org/blog/65-peop...

ICE’s deportation agenda is not what is being advertised to the American public. ICE is not interested in prioritizing public safety, yet it constantly pretends that anyone who objects to its tactics ...

America's public lands are perhaps the single greatest asset our country has. Protected wilderness, open space parks, BLM, Forest Service, and grazing lands are without a doubt our richest resource, and aside from generating *literally* trillions in revenue, they're also vital for our survival.

This will also bring SE flow aloft over Arizona and New Mexico and will bring us our first real shot of monsoon season moisture ⛈️⚡️🌩️🌵
A little more than a week out still...but a solid signal in model guidance for some big heat first half of *next* week as an upper level ridge flexes over the Northeast.

i've been trying to see what the right wing platforms (even outside of X) are showing people regarding the protests in LA and i am not sure it can be overstated just how much the AI slop is being used to reinforce the idea that downtown is a post-apocalyptic war zone

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

This is such an abhorrent and unacceptable way to use your influence on social media.
“I know the national weather service is getting gutted but if they can’t issue warnings on time then completely gut them.”
I just can’t fathom people sometimes.

Republicans don’t like the new pope because he’s actually a humble person that wants to show the world it is okay to be accepting of others and that hate is wrong. So yes of course MAGA is against this man. MAGA has shown us they open their arms to intolerance and their actions prove this.
You know who else was an Open Borders guy? Jesus.
According to the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus's family escaped Herod's purported infant killing spree by crossing the border to Egypt.
I guess he's "gross" to Laura Loomer too.

Yesterday West of Phoenix, AZ near sunset! Was a very chilly and windy storm chase day. Missed a lot of lightning but captured some bolts. Overall my first chase day in May for thunderstorms in Arizona wasn’t that bad. #azwx #storms #rainbow #lightning #desert #omegastormsystem
