Let the picture of the little five year old boy standing facing the car and the old man being dragged out of his house with no shirt on, let those images burn into your brain. We don’t have to be this country. We don’t have to live this way.

“If just 1/4 of global aviation fuel by 2050 came from crop-based biofuels, massive amounts of additional farmland would be needed. It would lead to large-scale deforestation & higher food prices, & would be a disaster for our efforts to fight climate change & prevent biodiv loss.”

Sorry but I am FED UP with this happening repeatedly. @mariascott.bsky.social found out I had made a significant discovery in French history and initially encouraged me to publish. I explained I was going through cancer treatment but intended to. She then decided to steal my work & publish herself.

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King.
This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

We didn't punish the South hard enough after the civil war and we're still dealing with this bullshit 160 years later as a result.
Should be a lesson to Democrats that there can be no kumbaya with MAGA after Trump is gone. Everyone who broke the law must go to prison.

Seeing @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social tonight at the St Louis County Library reminded me of just why he’s one of my favorite reporter. His new book Firestorm is a must read for anyone interested in what’s coming in the age of climate change.

Tell Congress to take back their Article 1 power and protect foreign assistance. @onecampaign.bsky.social
Tell Congress to step up on foreign assistance
Congress just released a new funding bill and for the issues we care about, it’s a mixed bag. Tell Congress it's not too late to support foreign assistance.
