Remember Jan 6 rioters trying to hang Mike Pence? Rather than call in the National Guard, as requested, Trump sat there watching the rioters for hours, then pardoned them when reelected. The hypocrisy & cruelty of this authoritarian regime is shameful. #resist #GoodTrouble #PeacefulProtest #NoKings

The Boston Tea Party was a protest over the King’s imposition of a TARIFF on tea. Only 116 colonists launched the American Revolution’s historic #protest.

It’s no longer “Who are we dealing with?” but “What?”
Remember Elon’s ketamine use? “There are times when I have sort of a …depression that’s not linked to any negative news, and ketamine is helpful for getting one out of the negative frame of mind.” Now he’s inside our Treasury & terrorizing our government lawlessly.

Trump & Elon push out the FAA Chief & send notices to all fed workers urging them to resign. Not surprising safety regulations protecting all of us are crumbling during this coup & disregard of our Constitution.

Pay attention who’s making the moves for Musk.
Rental car cos charge Young Driver Fees ($20-30/day) for renters under 25 yrs old as protection because they're such a "HIGH RISK!" Musk's 19-24 year old lackeys seized control of our Treasury's payment systems for SSI, Medicare, everything! No clearances. No transparency. No cavalry coming! Help!
If you’ve been wondering what Elon Musk and his lackeys are up to since taking control of the US government, look no further. Our latest story names six 19- to 24-year-olds working with his DOGE organization, which now has access to sensitive federal systems. wrd.cm/4jzpiSN

This is Joe Biden's last night as a public servant. But who remembers Joe from 50 years ago as the youngest member of the US Senate at the start of an extraordinary legislative career? Here's Biden's introduction to a national audience in 1974 interviewed by PBs's Bill Moyers. youtu.be/QDvgPZLWG3o

In 2006, we determined that climate change would drive "consistent shifts in Santa Ana events from earlier to later in the season" and said this "may significantly increase the extent of CA coastal areas burned by wildfires, loss of life, and property."

“Egregiously, even as climate-driven disasters leave communities reeling, private insurers are continuing to underwrite insurance for the expansion of massive new fossil fuel projects that are directly responsible for fueling the climate crisis—and show no sign of withdrawing from these markets!”

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
