🚗💔 My friend Hannah lost her only car in a crash in rural Baja. She grew up without schooling, job skills, or a support net—but built a small business anyway. Now it’s all at risk. Please help if you can.

Iran use of nukes:
-Bomb US & Israeli cities.
-Bomb US & Israeli troops & bases.
-Battlefield nukes.
-Iran gets parity with Israel
-Propaganda for & parity with 8 nuked countries.
-Propaganda for citizens.

Iran won’t do first 3.

@climate_ice Me too. Project 2025 needs to include adaptive strategies for living in a flaming world.

@GlobalEcoGuy It happens on Facebook as well. Really crappy and nasty stuff

@sethfinnegan1 Way too complex for AI now. Needs more time and learning. Seems like good future potential.

If you're wondering why Trump is so eager to distance himself from his Project 2025, I've got the details on the climate part.
Among other things, he wants to shut down the agencies that measure temperature.
No thermometers=no fever!! Very intelligent!

The stuff in Project 2025 on climate and fossil fuels is even worse than you would imagine. As Michael Mann said, this would be “game over for climate progress.” If you care about a livable future, it’s worth understanding what’s in this radical right blueprint. Buckle up.

BREAKING: Trumper Texas Senator Ted Cruz embarrasses himself on national television as a FOX News host asks him in front of millions of live viewers if he has any evidence of President Biden’s “crimes.”

It all started when FOX News host asked Cruz, “Do you have ANY evidence that the Department of Justice is covering up crimes for Joe Biden?"

Cruz shamelessly responded, "Well, unfortunately, it is abundantly clear that the Biden Justice Department is covering for the White House, doing everything to impede the investigation into Hunter Biden and, more significantly, into Joe Biden."

Then, Cruz falsely declared, “We have the text message that Hunter Biden sent to a Chinese Communist official demanding millions of dollars, saying I'm sitting next to my father."

Unfortunately for Cruz, Bartiromo wasn’t impressed by his answer, and decided to press Cruz again, asking Cruz, “Do you have ACTUAL evidence that Joe Biden made policy decisions based on events that he was actually paid for?"

A visibly flustered Ted Cruz responded nervously, “On the China piece, Joe Biden won't answer questions on that. So we don't have any information."

There you have it, folks. Even on the friendly turf of FOX News, Ted Cruz fell just flat on his face and made it clear that he and Republicans have absolutely “no information, AKA evidence, on President Biden.

Please retweet and ❤️ if your support President Biden against Trumper Senator Ted Cruz — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

Will the Nothern hemisphere actually see a "winter" this year? Based on current observations, my guess is that many regions will be relatively mild with occasional Polar blasts that will vary depending on the movements of the Jet stream waves.

Interesting opinion. I hope Eliot is wrong but the way governments, most organisations and individual people are responding to the climate challenge today is not encouraging.
Urgently needed: a tipping point in global human response.

Staunchly anti-LGBTQ Ron DeSantis is the latest politician to join the Dylan Mulvaney brewhaha, advocating a conservative boycott of Bud Light. He said Bud Light "lost a customer,” before admitting that he doesn't even drink it. Then DeSantis said he prefers Guinness — although that beer company has also been advertising to the LGBTQ community for years.

Who else thinks DeSantis should worry LESS about gay-friendly beers and MORE about the massive flooding in Fort Lauderdale? ✋
