West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

There is so much to pay attention to. But we gotta do it. Pay attention. www.npr.org/sections/sho...
'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts
The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

About a decade ago we “adopted” Sities at The Sheldrick Foundation. Her mom likely a victim of poaching. We visited the Nairobi orphanage in 2010 and have adopted elephants since about 2007. Sities just had a baby boy and brought it back to be seen. www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/news/updates...

Bowser signals D.C. will paint over BLM Plaza after GOP threatens funding
The mayor’s announcement represents a remarkable retreat from her defiant posture toward President Donald Trump during his first term.

When we were under this foul/fowl president the first time, I started watching The Repair Shop. I think because everything people brought in got fixed. And there are extraordinary craftspeople repairing them. There was care and repair. I’m so worried right now. Love to anyone who needs it.

Hundreds of NOAA employees are being fired by Trump and DOGE.
The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.
A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans.
Again, this isn't about efficiency.

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

My father worked with NOAA throughout his career and after he retired from the Navy. He was the deputy director of the Applied Physics Laboratory at the University of Washington. He worked with NOAA so much that we were sent a letter from them after he died in 1999. I just can’t.
NOAA is an absolute mess, and it’ll be worse tomorrow. Please help us. There have already been over 1,000 terminations. It’s not just layoffs—Elon Musk and his staffers are trying to completely dismantle us. Today, there were tons of firings, and more are coming tomorrow.
