👆From 2015. “DOGE” are running roughshod over Washington, D.C. - what will be left to combat climate change? The pattern, thus far, is more “Move Fast and Break Things”…

“…climate change will aggravate problems such as poverty, social tensions, environmental degradation, ineffectual leadership and weak political institutions that threaten stability in a number of countries, according to a report the DoD sent to Congress…”https://t.co/kqCRxt4sDb

It's really cool that Tom Brady got to be there for the Eagles' two Super Bowl wins! He might be a good luck charm.

Have a great night!

A DOE official warned the new Energy secretary against allowing 23-year-old DOGE employee Luke Farritor access to the agency’s cybersecurity systems, including the network that feeds into the National Nuclear Security Administration. Chris Wright approved access anyway.

Last year Elon Musk and SpaceX claimed the NLRB is unconstitutional after being accused of labor violations.

Now under Trump, the NLRB is dropping its opposition to this claim.

The labor board will no longer fight in court against the charges that it shouldn't exist.

I miss the days when very rich people used their money to fund libraries, public art and philanthropic endeavors rather than launching slow-motion coups against the federal government.

@BenjaminSolak He wasn’t missing when you were doing a pod exclusively about The Birds, talking about him never missing. You know what to do!

“There is no longer any excuse for failing to see what a second Trump Administration may bring,” David Remnick writes. “These are not the imaginings of a paranoiac. These are campaign promises announced from the podium.” https://t.co/08IK9ou4Wi

The Honourable Murray Sinclair always walked into dark places with a flashlight so that we can safely follow. A beam of light that cut through injustice and shows the way to hope.Sending prayers and gratitude to his loving family🧡

Something that Tanya Talaga said a couple of weeks ago that hasn’t left me: when you think of Murray, think of the weight of hearing thousands of accounts of untold horror, and the toll it would take on your body. Think of taking that on. https://t.co/30LQbg26Q2

What’s happening in America today is something darker than a misinformation crisis, @cwarzel writes. It's a cultural assault on any person or institution that operates in reality. https://t.co/uSJW5Np2Sg

BREAKING: 99 US physicians and medical professionals have published a letter and report indicating "probative evidence that the human toll in Gaza... is already greater than 118,908, an astonishing 5.4% of Gaza’s population."

This is genocide. https://t.co/xdeogIbFz4

I don't think people elsewhere fully grasp what's happening in NCR and just how hot it is. At 7am, the tap water is boiling hot. The sun hurts the eye. There's no night time anymore. For 24 hours the temperature feels above 40C. Which means during night the water is as hot

BREAKING: Judge Silas Reid has today sent the indomitable Amy Pritchard to prison for 10 months.

He suspended the sentences of four others, who joined her in breaking windows at JP Morgan.

Here's what Amy said to Judge Reid that riled him so much
