Trump declared a “national emergency” to hide Venezuelan oil revenue. Trump says it's critical to national security. But climate hawks know the truth. This is an illegal war for oil. Tell Congress stop Trump's illegal war for oil —Now. actionnetwork.org/letters/stop...

ALERT: The Boundary Waters are under threat. A new proposal in Congress would open up this iconic wilderness area to copper mining, a process that could poison its lakes and streams with heavy metals and toxic runoff.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Isn't it odd that the United States has enough money to suddenly run Venezuela, but not enough to run our own country?

There is always cash in the piggy bank for bombs to kill people, but never for healthcare to keep them alive.

Capitalist colonial leaders and followers would rather kill people than have them be free.

It is no small purpose to dedicate our lives to ensuring that we are able to reach liberation together.

This is the time to truly solidify, unify around, and support those who are guided by this purpose.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable.

We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Democrats must remember this — and act on it.

Happy 52nd birthday, Endangered Species Act! 🥳

This historic legislation has saved hundreds of species — most notably the bald eagle — from extinction.

Now, more than ever, we must fight to protect our environment, wildlife, and all living things.

A fungus photo a day: First powdercap/Cystoderma amianthinum of the season yesterday. You can see why they got that name from the texture of the cap. The fancy sheath around the stipe is described as “granular” or “flaky” but I just call it fancy. #fungifriends #fungi #mycology #naturephotography

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

A fungus photo a day: You never know what you might see when you photograph a 🍄‍🟫’s gills. This Collybiopsis has a fungal mycoparasite called Spinellus (I asked an expert) and on the right side there is a Drosophilinae fly.

Health insurance costs jumped for workers & employers in 2025.

This will get worse if the GOP refuses to extend ACA subsidies.

Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024.

Still not sure we need Medicare for All?
