California has a population bigger that 154 other countries around the world. It’s the 4th largest economy, in the world.

Let that sink in.

This is phenomenal.

Sea surface temperatures are >5C above average to the west of the UK and around Iceland. It's the strongest area of anomalous warmth on the planet at the moment.

It's the warmest in recorded history for northwest Europe.

Rep. Miller-Meeks won her seat by 800 votes. She's stealing health care from 67,000 of her constituents.
Alex Lawson to Rep. Miller-Meeks: Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn’t vote for Medicaid cuts, but you’ve voted for the largest cuts in the history of the country.

Do you have any comment on the health care that 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?
