China is the world’s largest single greenhouse gas emitter, emitting twice as much as the United States.

But now there’s been a key shift: China’s greenhouse gas emissions have fallen even as energy demand has gone up. This milestone is "ahead of schedule."

The world’s largest emitter just delivered some good climate news—for now
China may have met an important milestone ahead of schedule. We'll see if it persists.

• 130 had no U.S. criminal histories aside from immigration violations;

for any Americans concerned about the integrity of Canada's elections, remember that Canada does not use electronic voting in federal elections. we vote by placing pine cones in empty TimBit cartons. the winner is required to eat these pine cones at their swearing-in ceremony.

First judges, now journalists.

Bondi just gave the okay for authorities to seize the records of reporters to identify their sources.

Court orders and search warrants will now be the norm.

And not just about leaks. They'll use it to go after any journalist who goes against their fascist agenda.
Justice Department revokes Biden-era protections for reporters in leak investigations
In a new memo, Attorney General Pam Bondi said the DOJ will allow for subpoenas, court orders and search warrants to get information and testimony from journalists.

WTF? FBI agents arrested a Milwaukee county judge on Friday, accusing her of shielding an immigrant from federal authorities. The allegation? That Judge Hannah Dugan “intentionally misdirected federal agents away from” someone they were pursuing, according to a now-deleted post by Mr. Patel.
