Highly recommend Melissa Aronczyk's dissection of PR firms as "the glue joining carbon based industries, media orgs,& economic sectors using coalitions, campaigns & other coordinated processes to question the efficacy of science, news & political institutions engaging climate related issues" ~34:30

Really disappointing from @royalsociety.org which is hiding behind "not policing politics" to sustain the membership of an openly white supremacist anti-science billionaire who never should have been admitted in the first place, talk about low bars 🧪 www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-c...

Trump Just Gave Democrats the Ideal Albatross to Hang Around His Neck Now that Trump has admitted he’s a Project 2025 fan, he’s given the Democrats a huge target. Do they have the guts to hit it? newrepublic.com/post/201330/...

⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️ 🧵 Bessie Stringfield, was born Bessie Beatrice White on February 9, 1911 (some records list March 5), in Edenton, North Carolina, to Maggie Cherry and James White. (cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory allthatsinteresting.com/bessie-strin...

I thought Trump said the democrats wanted to take away cows.

Some of Project 2025’s priorities have been achieved through Trump’s actions. A Biden plan for a ground and surface water limit on toxic PFAS, or “forever chemicals,” was withdrawn under Trump’s day one freeze on new regulations. www.cnn.com/2025/01/31/p...

Hugely powerful words. Do take a couple of minutes to watch. The world is a bleaker place without Jane Goodall; may her message live on.

Democracy Docket, Marc Elias and his crew, have been doing insanely incredible legal work to preserve voter rights throughout this country!! There are very few organizations that deserve support more!! Democracy Docket democracydocket.com

A government shutdown brings stress and uncertainty for families across our country. 

If you are facing impacts from the government shutdown, we want to hear your story:

Important Sunday Message from Meidas Founder www.meidasplus.com/p/important-...

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

The FDA this week approved a new mifepristone medication. Now, House Republicans are calling for FDA leaders to be laid off as part of the government shutdown. www.notus.org/house/house-...

California’s new AI law could set a precedent for what Democrat-led AI regulation looks like nationwide. www.notus.org/technology/g...

Federal Judge Halts ICE Transfer of Immigrants Turning 18 From Children’s Shelters to Adult Detention www.notus.org/immigration/...

I just signed legislation allowing the 800,000 rideshare workers in California to unionize. California is determined to give working people a voice, to give them choice, give them dignity, and give them a say about their future.

Republicans are lying to the American people about the government shutdown. It's shameful and they know it.

For decades, “prestige was seen as synonymous with enduring value: Harvard would always be Harvard,” Jeffrey Selingo writes. But with sticker prices surging and graduates facing a tough job market, many parents no longer believe prestige is worth the price:

“Just as the left used [George] Floyd’s death to justify and hasten all manner of political ends, the right is invoking [Charlie] Kirk’s name to advance illiberal aims and silence opponents,” Thomas Chatterton Williams argues: https://theatln.tc/CBsfQRXm

Trump’s apologists have defended his censorship efforts by attacking the left for once embracing cancel culture. But, “presuming that all opponents are hypocrites relieves people from having to make a case against liberal values,” Jonathan Chait argues.

Trump's Justice Department is firing the people who prosecute terrorists, Jake Tapper argues. The president's politically motivated personnel decisions make "the United States and the world less safe":

Donald Trump is using the opioid epidemic to justify the use of lethal force against supposed smugglers in the Caribbean—but the United States “does not encounter fentanyl on the high seas,” @nickmiroff.bsky.social reports:

Donald Trump is offering nine universities funding if they sign a compact that’s a “complete adoption of the MAGA high-education agenda,” Kevin Carey writes. The document is “shot through with the tensions that mark Trumpism in its latest form”:

FBI Director Kash Patel’s “challenge coin” leans on comic-book references and gun imagery. It’s more apt for “a grown man who spent too much time on the internet as an adolescent” than for the head of a law-enforcement agency, @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues.
