EPA just made its priorities clear.
Instead of valuing the lives saved by limits on deadly air pollution, the agency has stopped counting those benefits altogether. Now it is only counting what pollution rules cost companies. 😡😡
When profits matter more than people’s lives, public health loses.

An estimated $1.3 billion of that has come from his burgeoning crypto grifts, which could put the rest of us at severe economic risk. https://youtu.be/gpCxV-cRY4o?si=hv3qQImBGP_XgwSA

Hard to escape the feeling that the world is in the hands of the worst people who have ever lived at the most dangerous & precarious moment in the history of our species.
This is not hyperbole & these things are clearly not unrelated.

A 21-year-old anti-ICE protester holding just a megaphone was permanently blinded in one eye after a federal agent fired a ‘nonlethal’ round at close range in Santa Ana. Kaden Rummler underwent six hours of surgery.

This is where Europe's offshore wind model stands out. It shows what’s possible when policy, planning, & public interest are aligned through cross-border cooperation.
And this blueprint isn’t just powering the region, it’s being studied & adapted from Asia to Latin America.

Being “disrespectful of law enforcement” is not a crime, and is not something that American citizens should be summarily executed for by masked men in unmarked cars.
Q: "Do you believe that deadly force was necessary?"
Trump: "It was highly disrespectful of law enforcement. The woman and her friend were highly disrespectful of law enforcement…Law enforcement should not be in a position where they have to put up with this stuff."
