Defining Our Role in the Wake of the International Day of Peace www.commondreams.org/opinion/inte...

As Presidents Trump and Putin meet in Alaska for their talks there are 12,241 nuclear weapons in the global arsenals with the U.S. and Russia having 87% and each rebuilding their arsenals with “enhanced weapons”. This video shows the power of these arsenals. We must move @backfrombrink.bsky.social

Archbishop Wester is spot on with this assessment! We must eliminate these weapons before the eliminate us! Wester: World must disarm nuclear weapons before AI triggers Armageddon www.ncronline.org/news/wester-... @backfrombrink.bsky.social

On this day 80 years ago the U.S. dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki killing 70 thousand people. Today we stand closer than at any time since to nuclear war. We must eliminate these weapons and move @backfrombrink.bsky.social We honor the victims by guaranteeing never again. Join us.

Finishing Ojai “Cranes for Peace” commemorating the 80th anniversary of the Hiroshima & Nagasaki bombings. It was wonderful to be in community to fold cranes, talk and reflect on the events of that day and our current nuclear world. Here are some of the cranes we folded. @backfrombrink.bsky.social

80 years since the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, everything we care about is threatened unless we abolish these weapons and recognize our interconnectedness. Here is a link to my current op-ed on changing the narrative. www.peacevoice.info/2025/08/07/8... @backfrombrink.bsky.social

Today marks the 80th anniversary of the US atomic bombing of Hiroshima killing 140,000 people. Today we can best honor the victims of that bombing and the Hibakusha by working together to guarantee a future free of nuclear weapons. Join the effort @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

Done. Thanks!

The eerie sunset this August 3 ushering in our latest fire season after yet another hottest year on record. Ahh, climate change. Gotta love those climate deniers, and history rewriters!

The myth of deterrence is greatest driver of our current nuclear arms race. EVERYONE and THING we care about is threatened by their very existence. This video demonstrates the size of the current global arsenals. We must move @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

The deliberate killing of humanitarian aid workers, doctors, children and genocide sanctioned by our government must stop! Where is our humanity? share.google/qoiRUa4QSHI7...

In March 2025, there were 99,130 Hibakusha (atomic bomb survivors) alive, average age 86.13 years. We owe them, and those victims who perished, a world free of nuclear weapons to guarantee that it can never happen again. Help make that a reality @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

A nuclear war between the US and Russia is estimated to kill 360 million outright & >5 billion would die from crop loss starvation due to the release of 150 Tg (Teragrams=million metric tons) of soot into the upper atmosphere. www.nature.com/articles/s43... @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

Nuclear deterrence is a myth and ultimately the greatest driver of the arms race. The only way I can deter my opponent/adversary/enemy is by having more or better weapons and so is our march to nuclear madness. We must abolish these weapons. Join us @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

The U.S. has 5,177 nuclear weapons, >42% of the world’s weapons. This ‘25 fiscal year we are spending $110,344 Billion or greater than $12.596 million per hour to rebuild our entire arsenal, fueling the new arms race. www.psr-la.org/nuclear-costs @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

A “limited” regional nuclear war between India and Pakistan using 100 Hiroshima size bombs (<1% of global arsenals) would kill ~2 billion people globally from famine due to climate change and subsequent international crop failures. psr.org/wp-content/u... @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

This was Zeinab just 5 days ago. She was 5 months old.

The world’s arsenals have 12,241 nuclear weapons, available for use, with a combined explosive power of ~4 BILLION tons TNT or 111,111 times the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs combined, killing ~200 thousand people. We must move @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

With the advent of the nuclear bomb 80 years ago, we now had a weapon powerful enough to be measured in kilotons (thousands of tons) TNT to megatons (million tons) whose universal injury was burns and unique injury was radiation associated diseases.

I left Meta/Facebook/Instagram when they announced their massive investment and conversion to nuclear power to meet their energy demands. Ultimately, nuclear power is the cover story for nuclear weapons. They are intricately related and threaten all of life and everything we care about.

According to the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, it’s 89 seconds till midnight and the end of life as we know it. We must eliminate nuclear weapons before they eliminate us. www.preventnuclearwar.org #80daysofaction

On the 80th Anniversary of Trinity, Nobel laureates call to prevent Nuclear war. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p... @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

Yesterday on the 80th Anniversary of the Trinity bomb over New Mexico, which ushered in the nuclear bomb era, US Senators Markey, Sanders, Merkley, Welsh, and Van Hollan introduced a Senate Resolution calling on the United States to take a leadership role in the elimination of nuclear weapons.

23 Days to the 80th anniversary of the U.S. bombings of Japan. #80DaysofAction @backfrombrink.bsky.social Urge your U.S. representatives to co-sponsor H.Res317: mcgovern.house.gov/news/documen...

First we bombed New Mexico - on this day, 80 years ago in the Trinity test, The United States exploded the first nuclear weapon in New Mexico.

Thank you Deer Lodge and our local merchants for protecting our friends, neighbors and Constitution. #impeach

80 years ago the United States developed the first nuclear bomb. That development and its aftermath threatens EVERYTHING we care about and all of LIFE to this day. We must eliminate these weapons before they eliminate us. We must move @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

This is happening in my community. We all have a role to play in stopping this injustice now!

The horror and tragedy supported by our government continues!

This is Trump, and the Republican party’s America. They’re killing innocent people! This happened in my backyard. What are our elected officials really doing to stop this immediately. We need actions, not words!

The threat of nuclear war today by intent, accident, misinterpretation or disruptive technology is greater than at any time during the Cold War. It’s 89 seconds till midnight. We must move @backfrombrink.bsky.social #80daysofaction

In this 80th year since the first atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki we must eliminate nuclear weapons before they eliminate us. Urge you elected officials to sign. The US conference of Mayors has unanimously endorsed.

It’s important to call 911 of and when you witness these attempted kidnappings. #impeach

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment. Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off. 📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

Just to be clear, the same intelligence that brought us 20 years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan over Saddam’s nonexistent WMD,…

These cowardly bastards, none of whom served in the military, just took us to war again! #impeach !
