California is advancing as a global climate leader at #COP30.
We're accelerating international cooperation and reinforcing California’s position as a reliable climate partner — especially while the Trump Administration fails to.

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

Dear MAHA—you’ve been conned by Trump and RFK Jr… food safety laws now decimated by industry lobbyists for their profits and your future diarrhea. Fun fact— food borne illness already surging since EFK Jr slashed CDC tracking system for food borne outbreaks. www.levernews.com/shutdown-dea...
Shutdown Deal Kills Food Safety Rules
After lobbyists spent big on the Trump administration and Democratic defectors, the government funding bill cut food-contamination rules and limited ultraprocessed-food research.

In the transcript of her interview, Ghislaine Maxwell was told she could not lie to DOJ officials.
The email that’s most newsworthy in my mind is the one that Epstein sent to Ghislaine Maxwell in 2011.
1. This was years before Trump ran for office.
2. It appears that Ghislaine Maxwell lied to DOJ officials during her meeting with them a couple months ago.

There was a scene in Zorba the Greek where the old prostitute is dying, and all these old women dressed in black flock in like crows to steal her possessions. That's what Jared's businesses remind me of, carrion waiting to profit off the former life & light of defeated people in ravaged countries.

Thousands protest Jared Kushner-linked development on site of bombed-out Belgrade building

Thousands of people have protested against a plan to tear down a former army headquarters in the Serbian capital Belgrade to make way for a luxury hotel complex, as part of a project linked to US president Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.
The rally added to a spate of anti-government protests putting pressure on president Aleksandar Vucic triggered by the collapse a year ago of a railway station roof that killed 16 people. Continue reading...
