Trump will ultimately choose Putin over our allies. Again.
❗️European leaders have literally hammered it into Trump that russia does not want to end the war voluntarily. It must be forced to come to the negotiating table, Politico reports, citing sources.

The world’s liquefied natural gas supply chains spew roughly 350 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent a year. For roughly $100 billion, that climate footprint could be cut by 60%, according to the IEA
IEA Sees Bargains in $100 Billion LNG Clean-Up Proposal
The world’s liquefied natural gas supply chains spew roughly 350 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent a year — more than Italy’s annual emissions. For roughly $100 billion, that climate footprint could be cut by 60%, according to the International Energy Agency.

ICE agent points gun directly at the head of innocent civilian—just for taking picture of his license plate.
He drew his gun with one hand—while fumbling to open the car door with the other.
The "agent" did not seem to be aware someone else was already recording his vehicle.

Ideally, when your country’s on the brink of war, you don’t want a reality TV game show host hyping it like: “Will we bomb them? Will we not? Tune in for the next episode of “Who Wants to Start World War III?”

I took this pic of then Vice President Joe Biden in the Oval Office back in September 2015. I’ll never forget how, during the 2020 campaign, he would make a point of saying the press is NOT the enemy of the people. Thinking of President Biden as he takes on this next battle. Godspeed Mr. President.

It was the deadliest eruption in US history, killing 57. Fortunately, probably fewer died thanks to warnings from government funded geophysicists monitoring the volcano
