Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

Great article on the gap between how we value human and natural heritage. Interesting that in Portugal and Italy, anyone is able to recommend a tree for protection www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

“Be kind, and the world is better off. I'm not sure that the world will be better off if I'm richer."
[applause] 🙏🏼

Around 1700, English gained the verb 'cop,' meaning "to get hold of, catch, capture."
By the mid-1800s, 'cop' is recorded in print as being used to refer to what police do to criminals.
Police were then called ‘coppers’...one who ‘cops.’
'Copper' was then shortened to 'cop.'

NYT: “The White House did not comment on why the group had altered the contracts data or why it’s now harder for the public to scrutinize it.”
The *savings* have been changed and altered — and are nowhere near what @MarshaBlackburn claims they are.

Elon Musk’s staffers visited the U.S. Institute of Peace, accompanied by two FBI agents. They were met at the door by a lawyer who informed them that the institute holds “private and independent status as a non-executive branch agency.” Following this, the staffers left.

This is a great week to spot elusive Mercury. Look low on the western horizon after sunset. Venus will guide the way. On March 7th, Mercury appears its farthest east of the Sun (18°), marking its best evening visibility all year. (via @skyandtelescope.bsky.social)

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.
