I have a to-do list.

He is so dumb

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Q: Given the amount of the mounting evidence of climate change, do you still believe it's a hoax?

Trump: I get awards environmental awards for the way I build it for the water, the way I use the water, the sand, the mixing of the sand and the water, I mean, many different, but I've had many awards over the years for environmental, the way I've built because you know about building, that's what you do. It's very important to me… The real global warming that we have to worry about is nuclear. The water is coming up an eighth of an inch over 300 years, the ocean is gonna rise and, you know, nobody knows if that's true or not, but they're worried about the ocean rising an eighth of an inch or a quarter of an inch in 300 years

Trump 2024: He pays less, you pay more

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Donald Trump is only out for himself. I'm fighting for the American people.

Check out our new ad.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Some of us have jobs to do, Donald

[Pod Save America @PodSaveAmerica]

So, Trump thinks rising sea levels means “you have a little more beachfront property,” wants to fire “woke” military generals “at the top,” and wants to “cut the Department of Education.” Sounds like a pretty terrible second term.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Big Oil is literally writing up Executive Orders for Trump to sign on Day 1 — with the promise of $1 billion in return.

He’s giving away our planet in return for cash.

Have we just accepted this as the new norm??

[The Xerces Society @xercessociety]

It's Pollinator Week! June 19-25 we will celebrate pollinators like bees, butterflies, moths, beetles, flies & wasps for helping make plant life possible in our world. We’ve combined expertise with @BatConIntl & @audubonsociety to include bats & birds too! https://t.co/WM2ZQFmq2l

[The Bee Guy @the_beeguy]

When talking to people about #bumblebees (which we do a lot!😊) they tend to mistakenly associate them with two things; honey and stings. We’ve covered the honey fallacy before so here’s a thread on stings to set the record straight Please #retweet for the bumbles.
Thanks.

If you let any story cut through all the Twitter noise today, please let it be this:

At least six local news websites across Alabama and Florida have been secretly taking payments from power companies to run stories attacking clean energy + other policies

@mccoshsm @inaturalist That's great! Congratulations on all the hard work

[Mark Olalde @MarkOlalde]

I'm sorry, what? Climate change projections aren't included in Texas' state water plan, and the state is banking on nearly two dozen large new reservoirs (the water is going to come from...?) to protect against drought.

A terrifying story from @erinmdouglas23 & @TexasTribune.

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

It’s refreshing to hear a Democrat use humor and mock right-wing conspiracy theories. Believe it or not, it’s an effective way to break through and connect with people who aren’t political junkies.

[Dan Pfeiffer @danpfeiffer]

Dems have the opportunity to reclaim freedom as a political value.

“Where we still believe in freedom: Freedom of speech, freedom to choose, freedom from hate, and the freedom to love. Don't let them take your freedom."
