TRUMP’S LIES, CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE FUTURE OF THE PLANET
The last eleven years have been the hottest eleven years on record. The last three years have been the hottest three years on record. Europe just saw its worst heat wave in recorded history that set all-time heat records in seven countries, killed more than 10,000 people, and caused the worst heat stress ever in half of the continent’s largest cities.
Much of the American west just saw its warmest winter on record, and as a country, the United States just saw its worst spring drought in recorded history. This summer alone we have seen multiple record heatwaves that have exposed hundreds of millions of Americans to dangerous levels of heat.
In both the United States and Canada, this heat and drought is driving longer and more intense wildfire seasons, including the more than 800 wildfires across Canada and northern Minnesota that are currently causing dangerous levels of air pollution for at least 115 million people across 20 states.
Let’s be clear: It is not normal for Detroit, Minneapolis, and Chicago to have some of the most dangerous air quality in the world.
NO, Mr. President: climate change is not a hoax. It is reality. And your ignorance is putting our kids and grandkids at risk in exchange for the short-term profit of your billionaire friends in Big Oil.
Our job: Reject President Trump’s lies and take on the crisis of climate change and the greed of the fossil fuel industry by transitioning our energy system to energy efficiency and sustainable forms of power. When we do that, we cut carbon emissions, reduce energy bills, and create millions of good union jobs.
And, by the way, we save the planet for our kids and grandchildren.

The photo does NOT do it justice.

are the republicans going to ask “where are we getting that money from” for this the same way they do when we talk about feeding kids in elementary schools or providing daycare for working families or providing healthcare for americans ?
The Dodgers are acquiring LHP Jake Eder from the Nationals in exchange for cash.
Eder, 27, has pitched in 9 MLB games posting a 4.87 ERA and 5.25 FIP. He has one remaining minor league option year left, according to Roster Resource.
To make room on the 40-man, Jake Cousins was transferred to the 60-day IL.
Incredible effort by @LadyCardsMaqGBB as they were down 8 at the half but won by 7! Keep it rolling Cardinals.

There seems to be some confusion about the SAVE America Act. If it becomes law, you will NOT be able to vote with your drivers license alone.
You’d need:
1. A passport, which more than half of Americans don’t have and costs at least $130
OR
2. A birth certificate PLUS your photo ID with matching names, which nearly 70 million married women lack
OR
3. Military services papers (not a military ID alone) with sensitive info.
I’m voting NO.
