Very disappointed. Conservancy founder, climate educator, ran for Congress. Seems my life was for nothing. My Dad fought fascism in WW II. Love my home, husband, singing and music, good food, beach days, and planet Earth. We have a grandchild!

Trump is a nazi pig.
On Monday, the New York Times reported, eight judges serving on the bench at New York City’s 26 Federal Plaza—ground zero for courthouse arrests—were terminated.

This sweeping purge is part of Trump's broader effort to reshape immigration courts to fit his mass deportation agenda.

I'm sure this is fine, in all the ways: climate stability, water stress, social/political stress. It's gonna save us all, right, and we'll live happily and creatively ever after on UBI.

Most people do not realize that California got electricity from coal in 2025.

Got.

As of last week, it is past tense. Finally, finally.

We are so far behind but we are moving forward thanks to so many people who never give up.
Congratulations to @billcorcoran.bsky.social @evangillespie.bsky.social and many more on the Beyond Coal Campaign who made the end of coal in California a reality this week.

Check out the story from @sammyroth.bsky.social
Ding dong, coal is dead
At least in California.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.

And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

It's a power grab.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

It's the opposite of "the buck stops here". He is selling out Admiral Bradley and sending chills down the spines of his chain of command, who now know their boss will sell them out if he is taking heat. A case study in how not to lead.

We risk allowing MAGA to set the narrative that this is about the second strike. The first strike was illegal as well. Don't let this get derailed arguing whether the second strike was a judgement call by the admiral who was carrying out the directive from the top. Thank you Senator.

Voters in six states — including Idaho and Pennsylvania — approved conservation measures during elections last month.

Vermont and Massachusetts are going beyond 30x30 conservation goals.

While Trump and Big Oil are looking to destroy more public lands, voters are saying they want to protect them.
