Call out the hypocrisy.
Trump is ordering flags at half staff for Kirk's murder.
Yet, two months after the murder of MN Speaker Melissa Hortman he's refused to so much as call the Hortman family or Gov Walz, & instead mocked them.
Vile hypocrisy doesn't facilitate peace, it enables more violence.

Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social writes.

This would be a clear way to show the Democratic Party base that you really do not care what we think, and that new ideas will not be tolerated.

Hi, I'm the guy who used to oversee the federal government's agency IT telecommunications contracts. This is extremely bad. There is absolutely no need for this. Not only is it a huge security exposure, but the simplest explanation for this is that it is meant to be a security exposure.
