And, as he will never say, Poland in 1939 declined to invade the USSR as a German ally. And then the USSR agreed to invade Poland as a German ally. Details in my book "Black Earth"
❗️Putin's logic:Poland has provoked Hitler who wanted to find a peaceful solution:
Poland made many mistakes.Germany offered to resolve the issue of Danzig&the Danzig Corridor peacefully.The Polish leadership at the time categorically refused&,in the end, became the first victim of Nazi aggression

"The next 50 years represent a critical period for making changes." With higher temperatures and higher demand, the Western US is facing a critical situation: water shortages. UNM law professor Warigia Bowman proposes four changes that could be critical in saving some of our water.

Good overview of recent CO oil & gas issues, including a disappointing ECMC vote to approve the Draco pad. The CU Law NREL clinic was proud to support folks in their advocacy against it. There's still work to be done to improve regulations and prioritize people over industry profits. On we press.
In 2024, #Colorado leaders dropped 3 environmental bills. In return, oil & gas pulled 2 ballot measures.
The tradeoff? We keep breathing toxic air—while the state earns little and spends that cleaning up.
O&G = 3.3% GDP, <1% of jobs.
Residents = exposed, ignored.

i spent a month investigating how republicans could cut off access to trans healthcare for most americans, and how democrats can likely stop them — but it’s unclear if they will.

Will Democrats Let the GOP Gut Trans Health Care?
Donald Trump and Republicans may try to ban funding to companies that perform trans health care. Some fear Democrats won't stop them.
