BREAKING: Indiana Gov. Mike Braun said Loving v. Virginia—legalizing interracial marriage—should have been left to individual states. That’s not misunderstanding, it’s blatant racism. Now he’s “walking it back.” We see your game, Gov. Watch this space, don’t let anyone forget.

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.
Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear U.S. residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?
Either everyone has due process — or no one does.

Senate Republicans voted to kill an EPA rule limiting the seven most hazardous air pollutants emitted by chemical plants and other industrial facilities.
Inhaling even small amounts of these pollutants can cause brain damage and cancer.
