🌿While high integrity is often associated with environmental integrity, there are additional critical elements related to the use of carbon credits, transparent governance, and social and environmental safeguards.

JUST IN: “This is not news we deliver lightly,” @margbrennan says as she reports: Trump Cabinet secretaries are discussing invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump. Nothing formal yet presented to VP Pence.

“I’m talking about actual members of the Cabinet,” she says

[Nick Schifrin @nickschifrin]

NEW: Former Joint Chiefs Chair Mike Mullen tells @JudyWoodruff Trump "incited" failed insurrection, says Trump "not in position to lead the next 14 days." Warns "I don't think we're done. Today was not it. We need to act in a preventive way to prevent more from happening."

So first the cops let them in, and then, at the end, they just got to leave.

[SCOTUSblog @SCOTUSblog]

For those dreading, or hoping, that a conservative 6-3 Supreme Court with three appointees of Donald Trump will overturn the results of the election and deem him to be re-elected: there is absolutely no chance of that happening, whatsoever. None.

[Nathaniel Rakich @baseballot]

This means Biden has taken the lead in Pennsylvania without even needing absentee ballots that arrive Nov. 4-6 (which could be disallowed by SCOTUS).

[Ezra Klein @ezraklein]

There are some razor-thin margins in some key electoral states. But this election, in terms of the popular will, will not end up close. Biden's margin over Trump is on-track to be larger than Clinton-Trump, Obama-Romney, Bush-Kerry...

[Ellie Rushing @EllieRushing]

West Philly reacts to Biden’s lead in Pennsylvania by dancing in the street, of course

[Ezra Klein @ezraklein]

Every few moments, when Trump gets bored and stops interrupting for a second, Biden opens a wormhole to a parallel world where a normal presidential debate is taking place, with two candidates explaining their agendas in response to the moderator's questions.

It's nice.

[Bill McKibben @billmckibben]

This is going to be the most important election for the next few million years

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Reporting is not enough.
Connecting the dots is not enough.
Mentioning the link to the climate crisis is not enough
(even though it would kind of help...).
If we are to have a small chance, this needs to be our main focus.
It needs to dominate the news.
All the time.
