I don’t think anyone in any position of power has wrapped their head around what’s coming for the Colorado River basin in the next few months

[Louis Geltman @LouisGeltman]

In a year of brutal blows to the fabric of our society, seeing the Washington Post gutted by a feckless billionaire still manages to feel like one of the worst yet.

[Chelsea Janes @chelsea_janes]

The Post is the team that drafted me. I’ve only ever worked one place since schools. And whatever happens, the gratitude I feel for having spent more than a decade here will never dissipate. But right now, I’m angry. Furious, actually.

Without that, I'm not sure what I'm subscribing for anymore. #SaveThePost @JeffBezos

[Louis Geltman @LouisGeltman]

I grew up with @washingtonpost as my hometown paper, but I've lived in the west for nearly 20 years. Following D.C. sports through the exceptional writers at the Post sports section has always felt like a small but meaningful connection to real D.C. and friends back home.

@thriftycars Note to whoever sees this in the future: they are not actually responding or helping. Do not read this as actual helpfulness.

If you're interested to better understand fire in the West, I think this is a really exceptional resource. Check it out.

A LOT to be stoked about here:

Outdoor Alliance board member and Congressman-elect Gabe Vasquez is on our blog today sharing how he got his start in advocacy work. Gabe has more than a decade of experience working on public policy, including working for U.S. Sen. Heinrich & the New Mexico Wildlife Federation.

[Louis Geltman @LouisGeltman]

@katieboue Your transition from dealing w/ public policy to "home & garden" is deeply tantalizing and inspirational

BREAKING: Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez has defeated Republican Joe Kent in Washington's 3rd Congressional District. https://t.co/WCqqEyrHKH

@Gabe_NM Outstanding! Congrats!

The Nationals are trading Juan Soto to the San Diego Padres. @JonHeyman first on this. Nats get CJ Abrams, OF Robert Hassell III, OF James Wood, RHP Jarlin Susana for Juan Soto and Josh Bell, as @jonmorosi said. Source says they also get lefty Mackenzie Gore.

[Governor Bob Ferguson @GovBobFerguson]

The combination of 50 Republicans, the Republican Supreme Court, and this guy have knee-capped the U.S in fighting climate change. It’s up to us now to be masters of our destiny. Whatever we did yesterday towards clean energy, we need to increase tomorrow.

[Ed Markey @EdMarkey]

Let me be clear—unless Congress takes bold and necessary action on climate change—a livable future is lost. Young people have acted bravely and relentlessly in defense of not just our planet, but their very lives. Another world is possible. We must have the courage to deliver it.

[Senator Jeff Merkley @SenJeffMerkley]

President Biden must immediately use the full scope of his executive powers to address climate chaos, starting by declaring a climate
emergency.

In a global energy market, we're never going to drill our way out from under the thumb of the fossil fuel industry.

@JasonKeithMoab and me in @thehill today:

[Outdoor Alliance @OutdoorAlliance]

"The reality is that we’re never going to drill our way to lower gas prices and energy independence, and, meanwhile, there’s another crisis — climate change — that demands our immediate attention." @LouisGeltman @PLSorg

[League of Conservation Voters 🌎 @LCVoters]

NEW: 175 members of the House Democratic Caucus have signed onto a letter urging @POTUS to do everything in his power to pass desperately-needed investments in clean energy, jobs, and justice.

We can’t afford to miss this moment. #ClimateCantWait

[Louis Geltman @LouisGeltman]

@RepPeteStauber @NatResources This is a bald-faced lie.
