Meanwhile Los Angeles news has been running non stop stories blaming the entire Palisades fire on an arsonist.

Hint: We’ve always had arsonists, power lines, camp fires etc but they didn’t used to burn down whole cities.

This is a level of free Climate denial oil companies must f’n love.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.
Please remind us who the domestic terrorists are again.

Farmworkers feed America — often in dangerous conditions for low wages.

Last summer, at a legal clinic we hosted with @ufw.bsky.social, we heard directly from immigrant farmworkers about their experiences working in the field.

What happened before, during, and after a hurricane, flood, and lies and racist violence hit Katrina should be remembered accurately, even though it was narrated with wild, destructive inaccuracy at the time, by government officials and mainstream media. Wrote about it here, five years after:
Reconstructing the Story of the Storm: Hurricane Katrina at Five
How we remember Katrina is how we'll prepare for future disasters. Getting the story straight matters for justice—and for survival.

Abandoned ice cream carts, fruit, and taco stands. Trucks with broken windows left in the middle of the streets. It’s the new reality ICE has brought to our beautiful city. This taco stand appears to have been hit last night, 6/27 in South LA by Florence and Gramercy.

We obtained lists of alleged gang members used by Venezuelan law enforcement and Interpol. Those lists include some 1,400 names.

None of the names of the 238 Venezuelan deportees matched those on the lists.

Immigrants and refugees make LA and the USA great.

Sending militarized and masked police and ICE to arrest them makes the USA worse. And sending in the National Guard and threatening to use the Marine Corps and holding a military parade to glorify a president…that’s fascism.

@michaelhobbes.bsky.social @yrfatfriend.bsky.social: I enjoyed the ultra-processed foods Maintenance Phase episode. I've long been flummoxed by the definition of UPF, and frustrated when, on New Yorker Radio Hour, Marion Nestle said defining UPF is "just common sense." Here's transcript link.

This is nothing more than a flashy press release from Donald Trump.

Trump should put his weight behind a bill so we can actually lower drug prices.

Instead, he and Republicans in Congress are plotting to rip away health coverage from millions of Americans.
Trump says he will cut drug prices by 59%
U.S. President Donald Trump said he would cut prescription drug prices by 59%, but gave no further details about his plan to lower medicine costs ahead of a health-related event at the White House later on Monday.
