Rick Steves: There was a handful of people who opposed Hitler, refused to do the proper salute, to kiss his ring; these are the Kinzingers, the Liz Cheneys, and the Mitt Romneys…of the German democracy in 1932…

Time is running out for Canada to make a pledge to @WBG_IDA, which helps low-income countries invest in their futures, improve lives, and create safer, more prosperous communities. I just emailed @DeputyPM_Canada asking Ottawa to step up. Join me! https://t.co/e7GaLCwIeO

Why don't Republican negative points vs Harris-Walz - some of them even approximately true! - do more damage?

Politics aside, the nominee is also a draft-dodger https://t.co/p5Yu5XR6Id, and lifelong deadbeat https://t.co/fYJE2p4LVt, tax cheat https://t.co/5sSAgJDM9B, fraudster https://t.co/261Znbxf8P, and confessed serial sex abuser https://t.co/09nWPM5f8V.

In that environment, its tough to get a hearing for negatives about a nominee's opponents.

Though the whole world knows his name, no one knows who he is.

Here's a thread on my dad, Hunter Biden - free of charge to the taxpayers and free of the corrosive influence of power-at-all-costs politics. The truth of a man filled with love, integrity, and human struggles:

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

We are reaching a point of no return in #Gaza, where the blatant disregard for international humanitarian law scars our collective conscience.

An end to the fighting is imperative if we are to avert the decimation of #Gaza and contain the spillover of this crisis.

@POTUS @SecBlinken @USAmbUN @USUN #CeasefireNOW #UNSC

I am horrified by the slaughter of civilians in Israel and Gaza. Killing tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians won’t make Israel safer.

⚡ HAPPENING NOW — Civil society at #COP28 is calling on rich nations to #FillTheFund on #LossAndDamage.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

I was not expecting much good news out of #COP28 let alone on the very first day, so this is encouraging: a new loss and damage fund for the poorest and most vulnerable countries to help them deal with the irreversible impacts of climate disaster. See: https://t.co/rnObfnmA68

[Colleen Stefanich @ColleenDann]

A new report from @ONECampaign reveals rich countries are spending a lot less than they claim to support countries facing the worst effects of the climate crisis. Add your name to stop this injustice! #ClimateJustice https://t.co/FaZlr9YKij
