The implications of the federal indictment against Eric Adams extend far beyond New York’s borders, Noah Shachtman writes. “They ripple through law enforcement offices and legislatures and courthouses across the nation, all the way up to the highest office in the land.”

There’s a simple answer. “Democrats won’t vote to fund this regime as is. It’s up to the republicans if they want to shut down the government. They’re in the majority.”
SCHUMER: “I hope and pray Trump will sit down with us.”
BASH: “And if he doesn’t Dems will vote no?”
@schumer.senate.gov : *suddenly seems to lose his hearing*
He “hopes and prays”, y’all. 🤔
Hard to watch.

Now, a new study that examines the world’s total supply of fresh water — accounting for its rivers and rain, ice and aquifers together — warns that Earth’s most essential resource is quickly disappearing, signaling what the paper’s authors describe as “a critical, emerging threat to humanity.”
“farther south — where most people live — it is largely the race to suck groundwater from aquifers that is removing the water from the continents.
So much groundwater is now being pumped that it’s filling the oceans as it drains off land, becoming one of the largest drivers of global sea level rise
