Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Some good news.
London is meeting legal limits for toxic NO2 pollution for the first time – almost 200 years earlier than predicted – following the Mayor’s "world leading air pollution policies," City Hall announces.
The Ultra Low Emissions Zone - and similar policies - really do work.

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance

Dems’ shut-down demands should be as follows:
1) swear in Grijalva now and pass a rule that says all new special election members must be sworn in the next business day after their election win, regardless of party.
2) release the entire unredacted Epstein files.
3) get ALL military troops out

Mother, children detained by ICE at Millennium Park Sunday held at O’Hare with other families: ‘We never imagined’
The mother said she felt her family was targeted because of their appearance. “There were a lot more people there, but the agents came directly to us because of how we look,” she said.

Shadow President needs to have a light shined on him
Stephen Miller, a man no one elected, is behind the Venezuelan boat strikes which have killed 17 people.
He should not be making military decisions.
He should not be executing strikes that take lives.
Only silver lining? He has no immunity. He can (and should) be prosecuted for his crimes.

Too often, we talk about homelessness as if it's natural or inevitable. The truth is that it's a political choice.
When then-Gov. Cuomo cut the Advantage program rather than tax his wealthy donors, his decision sent thousands of New York families into shelters.

More people need to understand that saying only “criminals” should be subjected to expanding state violence around us is what led to the broader public being targeted by it, too. Criminality is subjective, and power determines what it is or is not.
