Today is MLK day.

Today is the day to celebrate the life of one of the most influential figures on the civil rights movement.

We must remember that the fight hasn't ended and we still have a lot to do.

Forests planted on the edge of aridity are dying in plain sight.

The response? More mapping. More assessment. More planning.

This is the illusion of control at the moment it fails; treating collapse as a management problem instead of a biophysical limit.

Rand Paul: "To say it's not a war in Venezuela -- we still have hundreds of ships with a 100% blockade of the coast. That is an act of war. It's an ongoing war. To continue to take their oil -- ongoing war."

It’s been two weeks since the statutory deadline expired for the Justice Department to explain to Congress the reason for any redactions. Trump’s crew has missed that deadline as well.

Remember this name: Jonathan Ross.

He, who works for ICE, murdered a woman, and right after shooting her, he said "fucking bitch".

Remember who they are.
BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross

KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

BRENNAN: His name is public

NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

BRENNAN: What percentage of those you have in custody have committed crimes?

NOEM: 70% of them

B: It's not 70%

N: Yes it is. You guys pick and choose numbers

B: Your agency says 47% have criminal convictions

N: Wrong again. We'll get you the correct numbers

B: Well, that's from your agency

Nature is not a sidebar.
You can't solve the climate crisis without protecting biodiversity. Forests, oceans, and wetlands are our best allies. Deforestation is a climate weapon.

The problem is not that we can’t impeach the president. Although we can and should. The real problem is that we can’t impeach Stephen Miller because we never elected or confirmed him.
