Kudos to @abrahm.bsky.social for his wonderfully astute and informative climate reporting. The lack of foresight and planning in Texas and Washington, D.C., is nothing short of tragic. #climate

We don't need fascism in this country. Thank you Wisconsin for standing up for yourselves.

This is what happens in a fascist regime. The administration "knows" what Americans want, and other agencies don't. The Maga squad in Congress seeks to enable this.
If you’re wondering if you’re in a constitutional crisis and that the republic could collapse at any moment, you are.
