Hey @MilkenInstitute Did you know that @Citi is one of the biggest funders of polluting oil, coal and gas companies in the world, pumping $333 billion into the sector since 2016? Now ya do! #MIGlobal

Dirty #palmoil from murky supply chains = @ProcterGamble’s #toxictrait. Start the deep cleanse now - implement cross-commodity NDPE policies and commit to Free, Prior, Informed Consent of Indigenous communities!

Companies like @Draxgroup collect billions in taxpayer dollars to burn trees for electricity. @JustinTrudeau and @POTUS Biden it's time to cut ties with the biomass scandal and invest in real climate solutions instead: https://t.co/AF9fAREEXB

@POTUS Deny permits to the ConocoPhillips Willow Project. It will generate an estimated 280 million metric tons of climate pollution, jeopardizing people's health in nearby communities. It will devastate wildlife like polar bears, migratory birds, and caribou.

@Walgreens cannot prevent women from accessing legal medication just to pander to right-wing politicians. Will you sign on to boycott with me? https://t.co/7PsosfZtNk

@cvspharmacy Provide abortion care to your customers. Threats to keep you from dispensing these pills put pregnant persons’ lives at risk. Fight back. Do not allow Republican attorneys general to run your business and endanger your customers.

Railroads were exempted from Obama's 2016 executive order requiring federal contractors to give their employees 7 paid sick days. (Railroads have been federal contractors since the mid-19th century.)

Today would be a great day for POTUS to de-exempt them by executive order.

All going according to plan, right?

When an individual steals a few thousand dollars in merch, major retailers demand they get sent to jail

But when retail execs steal millions in wages from employees no one says the execs should go to jail

The worst that happens is the company pays back the money + a fine

What is particularly damning about this tweet here is the fact that the Republican Party regards it as a forgone conclusion that tax laws will ONLY be enforced on the middle class.

The prospect of going after the wealthy is completely beyond them. #Republicans #Maga #deplorables

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis knows how to operate the machinery of government effectively—as a weapon against the marginalized.

Should the FBI investigate Marjorie Taylor Greene for saying about January 6th: “I will tell you something, if Steve Bannon and I had organized that, we would have won. Not to mention, it would’ve been armed?”

[Citizens for Ethics @CREWcrew]

Trump called to "terminate" the Constitution and it didn't lead to widespread and strong condemnation from his party.

That's not surprising after he incited an insurrection and his allies backed him up, but it is outrageous.

[Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein]

. @SenAngusKing said that the Electoral Count Act is a timebomb under democracy. He is right; reform is critical. Let's hope it happens in the next two weeks!

If you missed this, here’s your chance to catch a great conversation between Professor Rick Morgan and Alex Verbeek on Green Chemistry. Very interesting!
