[John Pavlovitz @johnpavlovitz]

Kamala Harris didn't lose, America did.

As a nation, we collectively failed her—and in doing so we failed girls and women, the LGBTQ community, people of color, Muslims, Jewish people, immigrants, the sick, the poor, the elderly, the people of Ukraine, and Gaza, and the planet.

It's unthinkable, that instead of being able to celebrate a beautiful, hopeful new chapter in the story of this nation with a leader who appealed to the best of our natures—we will instead be holding a postmortem for democracy as we enter our 250th year, stewarded by a malevolent sociopath who despises empathy and shuns the law.

I truly thought we were better than this, that our shared humanity would show up. I thought we would reject this hatred and ugliness once and for all.

I hate being wrong about the majority of the people of this nation.

I don't know what's ahead. All I know is that good-hearted human beings are more necessary now than ever.

We did all that we could to avoid this moment, but now that it's here we'll just have to decide who we will be.

There is no way to comprehend or measure how grievous an error this is, but the only thing the decent people of this nation can do is wake up tomorrow and fight like hell for what we still believe is worth the fight, and we will.

I'll be doing that with whoever has the strength to join me.

I'm mourning the country we could have been and the one we apparently are—but I refuse to give up believing that compassion is the right path, that diversity makes us better, and that love is greater than fear.

Well this is not good. 119 fires already burning in British Columbia. 🔥Wildfires in B.C., Alberta signal an early start to a dry, volatile year #cdnpoli #climateemergency https://t.co/aSqs33BzfI

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

35,000 evacuated in British Columbia
30,000 more on evacuation alert
20,000 in Yellowknife evacuated
26,000 evacuated in Spain.
Historic heat, historic floods, historic wildfires.

How many more signs do we need before we #ActOnClimate?

@AnnieMLeonard I am so so feeling this lately, Annie, more acutely than ever. Back to back tear-inducing stories on the nightly news, fires/floods/heatwaves/India’s ban on rice exports… it’s all so heavy lately. Add being a newish parent on top of it all… ugh. Hard to stay hopeful

[Nalleli Cobo @NalleliCobo]

I'm calling on CA's lawmakers to support @SenGonzalez_33 #SB556 which would allow frontline communities to hold oil drillers responsible for making them sick. We can’t continue to prioritize corporate profits over the health and well-being of Californians.

@GeoffDembicki love it ... spoiler alert ... they DEFINITELY did (and still do). great suggestion to get proof on the record.

BREAKING: Raid happening now at @Gidimten camp, 5 arrests over a sham of a search warrant. This is sovereign territory and @RCMP has no business invading native land and stealing our people from their homelands.

NOW: We're at the doorstep of CA’s enviro regulators.

@GavinNewsom's regulators just approved 100s of permits to allow upgraded oil drilling, many right next to schools, hospitals, and other sensitive sites.

Unacceptable. It's time to protect our people, not Big Oil profits.

[Last Chance Alliance @LastChance_CA]

BREAKING: Protestors are out at the Natural Resources Agency HQ with @LastChance_CA @oil_action with a demand for @GavinNewsom:

✅ The next CalGEM director MUST work for the people, NOT polluters. Tell Newsom: end Big OIl’s #RevolvingDoor: https://t.co/TrEZZdSwfK

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

In a shock to LITERALLY NO ONE oil companies are lying to voters.

Claiming that oil drilling near schools and day care centers has no health impacts isn’t just a lie — it’s dangerous.

They will stop at nothing to line their pockets with cash. It’s sick.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Anyone surprised that oil companies are lying to you so they can continue making record profits while you pay the price at the pump? https://t.co/0sI7ywvmSd

[Cesar @94till_infinity]

I began my EJ career fighting for setbacks. I am eternally grateful for everyone that made this a reality.

[Last Chance Alliance @LastChance_CA]

California’s wildfires are getting bigger. More destructive. They’ve wiped whole communities off the map.

Oil drilling is #FuelingTheFlames. Go to https://t.co/SVR8lLjpA2 to tell @GavinNewsom: STOP permitting more drilling!

[Last Chance Alliance @LastChance_CA]

Thank you to @STAND_LA orgs @PSRLA, @CBECal, @BW4WLA, @EsperanzaCHC, @RedeemerCP, @HolmanUMC, @SCOPE_LA & @LibertyHill. Their advocacy w/frontline communities, led to this historic victory that will finally bring oil drilling to an end in LA.

[Sammy Roth @Sammy_Roth]

Why is California proposing to slash rooftop solar incentives? I'm glad you asked. It might seem surprising in a state dedicated to fighting climate change, but there's a fascinating backstory...

My latest for @latimes, followed by a quick thread: https://t.co/sHakjWmbiH

BREAKING: California has joined the Beyond Oil and Gas Alliance (BOGA) as a Second-Tier member.

NEXT STEP for @GavinNewsom: End new drilling for fossil fuels to become a full member.
