It's not just the shutdown: FAA is operating on a 5-year authorization that also expires this Sunday, unless Congress acts.

This chaos among House Republicans must end so that Congress can do its job. https://t.co/cC1dPvjmLo

There may be no pushback from his Republican colleagues, but mustn’t there be pushback from the rest of us? This kind of language is destructive to our country, our culture, and every living person. No one is safe under this man. I cannot understand how anyone can condone this language and behavior.

FRONT PAGE of the Wall Street Journal this morning is another massive expose of Exxon’s strategy to attack climate science and block action.

Climate change isn’t just a tragedy, it’s a crime.

This was a nonpartisan state election administrator and Republicans literally voted her out of her position — and it wasn't based on facts. It was based on lies and conspiracy theories. We must shine a light on this. Read more below. https://t.co/zFa8HUOkqA

Jon Stewart torches the Republican talking points on guns in 60 seconds.

“Republicans are the first to pounce on crime spikes while never acknowledging that it’s their dismantling of reasonable gun regulation that’s enabled the f*cking thing in the first place.”

Guns are the #1 killer of kids in America.

Not cancer. Not car crashes. Not drugs.

GUNS.

And what is the @GOP doing about it? Absolutely nothing. https://t.co/tEk8dEPr8v

“Explosive growth in solar power means most EU countries will hit their 2030 renewable energy targets ahead of time… The bloc added 41 gigawatts of new solar capacity in 2022 — a 40% increase on 2021.” https://t.co/BX79EOweSb

This is Kelowna, Canada. What do you tell your kids in this situation? It’s not just a rhetorical question. It’s something all parents are going to have to tell their kids as the fires, floods and famine reach their doors. https://t.co/ZhS57MQtQp #ClimateEmergency

International Airport in Iran reported a heat index of 178°F (81°C) today, tieing the highest heat index ever recorded, dew point of 97°F (36°C) - a new world record.

These are intolerable conditions for human life.

@nbminor Not quite the Denver area, rather Fort Collins, I am also strongly opposed. It would be great to see more options like the landline bus from the FC-Loveland Airport. Traveller’s can check bags before boarding the bus & the ultimate goal is a TSA security checkpoint there too.

@ColoradoStateU aims to prevent destructive fires in our state, which, unfortunately, have become a year-round issue. Through this model, researchers will be able to predict the fire path and even which buildings in a community are at greatest risk.
