By continuing to provide weapons to Israel — and bolstering the profits of America's military contractors — the U.S. is complicit in the genocide unfolding in Gaza.

There is no moral justification in wreaking vengeance on innocent women, men, and children. www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...
Revealed: Israeli military’s own data indicates civilian death rate of 83% in Gaza war
Figures from classified IDF database listed 8,900 named fighters as dead or probably dead in May, as overall death toll reached 53,000

This was probably the worst interaction I’ve ever seen. It’s important to watch
Trump's disgraceful attack on Zelenskyy.

Musk's Cabinet meeting takeover.

Republicans' reverse Robin Hood budget.

A lot happened this week. We get into all of it on today's Coffee Klatch.

How did the boycott go yesterday? How about we boycott some of the biggest ones all year, starting with Amazon 👏🏼

Trump threatened to sue journalists, authors, and book publishers who use anonymous sources. Granting certain sources anonymity is a common journalistic practice, especially when sources fear retribution.

Good news!! The federal hiring freeze for seasonal NPS rangers has been lifted due to the noise me made. Good work 👏🏼
But this is not as good of a win as we would’ve liked. Our permanent rangers are still out of jobs. This will still leave our parks understaffed and not properly cared for this year

What other forms of activism do you partake in? Many folks keep telling me “calling doesn’t save the world” and I get that. But I’d rather try than not try at all. So, what else can we do?

SCOOP: On his second day as HHS secretary, RFK Jr., the onetime environmentalist, killed climate change programs at NIH that research and prepare for the health effects of extreme weather and a warming planet. This is not going to make Americans healthy.

To the person who DM’d me “if they aren’t needed, why continue to pay them”

They’re firing aviation employees. They’re firing IRS and nuclear employees. Even if you don’t see the value in park rangers (you should), surely you see the value in the FAA
More than 300 FAA employees have been dismissed.

While many environmentalists talk about public lands in relation to climate change, let’s also acknowledge the hardships the rangers and their families now face. No one is hiring rangers right now. Many of them moved to remote areas for these jobs. Many of them dedicated years to these orgs 💔

THEY DON’T CARE ABOUT OUTDOOR RECREATION BECAUSE THEY WANT TO OPEN FEDERAL PUBLIC LANDS UP TO OIL & GAS DRILLING, MINERAL EXTRACTION, AND UNSUSTAINABLE LOGGING.

Not only do I live zero waste with pets but my dog helps me live MORE zero waste by eating food waste 👏🏼

Other ways we live low waste with pets include

🐱 reclaimed wood kitty litter

🐶 reusing bags as waste bags

🐶 any toys he rips a hole in I sew shut to make it last longer

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”
Yesterday many thousands of federal employees were terminated. This is a Reddit thread for federal employees that got laid off.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

Good question.
Honest question: Why are our former #Presidents, Vps and their spouses, and all those #celebrities who took the stage for Harris so silent instead of heading with #courage our, the People's, #resistance and #protests? Where are they??? @hcrichardson.bsky.social @politicsgirl.bsky.social

With the National Parks Service (under direction of new DOI Secretary Burgum) removing Trans people from Stonewall National Monument…if you can call a body of water by its “new name,” you can do the same for a human being 😌

Our parks are in chaos. We’ve seen firsthand how Trump’s hiring freeze, the rescinding of hundreds of job offers, and the layoff of 5% of NPS staff have left us overwhelmed and short-handed.
