NASA satellite shows many parts of LA County were 30% greener than average in summer 2024. That July, the NIFC warned that “herbaceous fuel loadings” were above normal throughout CA, and in some hilly areas, were twice the normal amount. #cawater earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/15389...
Fuel for California Fires
The buildup of vegetation and a rapid shift from wet to dry conditions played a role in the destructive blazes.

In case you're wondering how far behind the USA is on infrastructure, France is building 120 miles of automated subway lines with 65 stations for $45 billion in 17 years.

Hear me out —

If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is.

Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Where did all the water go after it was released from two dams? My colleagues and I looked into the sudden water releases ordered by Trump, and here is what we found: www.latimes.com/environment/... @jessicagarrison.bsky.social @sean-greene.bsky.social @latimes.com #CAwater
The water unexpectedly released from dams on Trump’s order didn't help farms or L.A.
The Trump administration abruptly sent water flowing from two California dams. The action could leave less water in dams for the summer, when farmers typically use it.

A witch hunt has begun at the FBI. Employees are required to provide information by Tuesday and are being encouraged to report on their coworkers. The FBI questionnaire asks agents about their roles in various cases, including whether they made arrests or appeared in court, among other details.

Arguably the biggest national security breach in U.S. history. Private employees downloading personnel data on every federal employee and tax and social security data on every American onto private unsecured servers. Needless to say, completely illegal and subject to major prison sentences.
3/ different pieces fit together. There also seems to be a significant amount of downloading government data onto private servers, etc, totally outside any cybersecurity regime. Additionally it’s unclear to the people inside whether the people doing these things actually work for the US govt…

One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it *should* be about 10%.

The actual number is less than 1%.

Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

It's a kind of coup, for sure. One we're not used to, and haven't experienced before, but it's definitely in the vicinity of a coup. An unelected billionaire literally taking over our government and our data and our secrets.
This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
