🚨NEW: climate inaction will cost more than a third of global GDP this century, but an investment of less than 2% GDP now will reduce harms by 90% - a "massive opportunity for humanity", finds a report from Boston Consulting Group and University of Cambridge.

Zelensky fact-checked JD Vance in real-time, and repeatedly interrupted Trump’s lies. At the end, Zelensky looked at the press pool and gave a thumbs up with a smile. Zelensky then went on Fox and refused to apologize. Good. Trump is the one who owes an apology—and his resignation—to the world.

A reminder that illegal border crossings have been plummeting. In December 2024 they were lower than they were when Trump left office last time.
This is largely b/c about a year ago, Mexico devoted more resources to halting migrants before they reached the US border (turns out, diplomacy matters!)
