Reminder: ocean heat content is a BETTER metric of global heating than surface temperatures (which are far more prone to fluctuations due to El Nino/La Nina), and unlike surface temperatures, it set a NEW RECORD THIS PAST YEAR:

Did I miss the vote on extending the ACA subsidies that was the hard won triumph that caused a group of Dems to vote to end the shutdown? How did that go?

This is pretty irresponsible. It’s time to deep six Faux News.

Numerous studies, including the Abecedarian Project and the Perry Preschool Project, have shown that children who begin preschool at an early age experience significant benefits in cognitive, academic, and social development. Seems like a program you’d want funded. #MomSky

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

Reminds us of how @marshablackburn voted against it then showed up to try to take credit for it: x.com/thetnholler/...

When addressing the climate crisis, the focus often centers only on carbon dioxide emissions and methane. Yet, nitrous oxide is 300 times more potent and remains active in the atmosphere for more than 100 years. Urgent action is needed to #BeatNitrogenPollution: www.unep.org/interactives...

About 1/6 of the total population of Serbia protested government malfeasance today. In the US that would be more than fifty million people.

The way people act like they won’t actually cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security gives similar vibes to when they acted like they wouldn’t actually overturn Roe Stop underestimating them

Day 3 at UrbanShift Africa Forum and the message is clear: we must achieve clean air for all. @worldresources.bsky.social research shows air pollution costs African economies $445bn per year, a number which will rise significantly without action. @c40cities.bsky.social

The Supreme Court decision should have been 9-0. The fact it was 5-4 reveals how utterly compromised the bench is in favor of right-wing authoritarianism.

“come back to the table in gratitude” Just thinking about the times that Netanyahu, who leads a country that is the largest recipient of U.S. aid under Dem and Republican presidents, has been invited by Republicans expressly to scold & embarrass Dem presidents. No leader should need to grovel.

No one wants a paper trail because spending funds Congress has not appropriated is colloquially known as “stealing from the US Treasury.”

I’ve always been skeptical of folks who say Trump is a literal ‘Russian asset’ or that Moscow has ‘kompromat’ on him, and the Russia obsession hurt the Dems in term one… but… how does anyone explain this? Justify this? How? t.co/ie1nWaL8ot

A reminder that Ukraine was once the third largest nuclear power in the world and voluntarily gave up those weapons. In exchange, the U.S., the U.K. and Russia guaranteed Ukraine's security in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum. www.npr.org/2022/02/21/1...

Individuals can offer support to President Zelenskyy and Ukraine here: u24.gov.ua

we may be one of the few pubs that got this headline right Trump And Vance Ambush Zelensky In Prelude To Betrayal talkingpointsmemo.com/news/trump-a...

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years. Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

💔😭💔😭

www.postandcourier.com/politics/tim... Scott chairs the banking committee and this is what he is doing....taking away the cap on overdraft fees.Claiming we need these higher fees to make us accountable.Please!banks don't depend on these fees but lower income folks depend on that extra $30. Call him.

Donald Trump again mimics Putin and calls for an election in Ukraine - falsely claiming Zelensky’s approval rating was “at 4%” Recent polling in fact shows that Zelensky’s approval rating is better than Trumps Lets make sure everyone knows the truth youtu.be/QDagM0WWEP4?...

#ProudBlue #DemocracyWarriors A person from Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has IT access to the Washington department overseeing nuclear weapons, without a government background check, according to multiple report www.newsweek.com/doge-luke-fa...

The guy who racked up almost $8T in debt during his first term has no interest in paying it down. The federal purge underway is to allow for oligarchs to make trillions in privatization and run roughshod in a deregulated landscape. Remember that in an oligarchy, everything is run by the oligarchs.

America is the only democracy with free speech protections so extreme they protect the right to lie for profit so long as your “product” is politics.

... “total shutdown” is planned for March 15... Website for the General Strike: generalstrikeus.com OPPOSE! PLEASE REPOST!

A reminder that a number of the attacks on the FAA so far appear to have been driven by Musk's anger at the agency for not approving SpaceX launches quickly enough.

The only difference between him and Elizabeth Holmes is he built his empire on technologies that already existed (usually because of taxpayer-funded research). The myth of his genius just allowed him to pretend he'd invented stuff, but he didn't. www.salon.com/2025/02/11/e...

"One FAA employee who was fired over the weekend suggested he was targeted for his views on Tesla and X..'The official DOGE Facebook page started harassing me on my personal Facebook account..Less than a week later I was fired, despite my position allegedly being exempted due to national security.'"

Hahahahaahah These corrupt fucking fascists aren’t even hiding it

This kind of ends of it. The MSM will not even let citizens pay to speak out against a private citizen who has taken over our government and is firing thousands of workers who live within 100 miles of the paper’s city. Bowing and scraping it’s way into irrelevance.

This guy is literally trying to access your banking information via the IRS. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

“As both the New York Times and the Washington Post reported today, the big winner from all the cuts to the government has been Musk himself, who has eliminated the agencies that were scrutinizing his businesses.” open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

The GOP budget is out. Republicans recently promised to love and cherish Medicaid. Their actual plan is to destroy it.

remind me, is it good or bad when the federal government just starts taking money out of bank accounts that are not the federal government's bank accounts?

"You are not the president and you need to go away.”

This one was censored in the US so not sure how many of you caught this before, but little X knows about the election rigging. Which is why Musk has effectively kidnapped him and doesn't allow him to be with his mother or other family.

They helped me when a student loan provider sent me to collections because they claimed I owed $.01 & was 90 days late, therefore, putting me in default. Yes, one cent, but they rounded it off to $1 otherwise they couldn’t send me to collections. The CFPB & my state Sen helped me fight them & won.

Elon is lying. Not only does the Social Security Administration use SQL, the agency has an entire IT division dedicated to database operations. The SSA's entire Master Files index runs directly on DB2.

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) averaged about 427 ppm in January 2025 10 years ago January averaged about 400 ppm Preliminary data from @noaa.gov: gml.noaa.gov/ccgg/trends/

Montanans: OPPOSE HB 291 on the House Floor. Revise laws related to air quality standards #MTPol #MTLeg #CleanAir HB 291 would prevent the state from implementing any air pollution standard or regulation unless the federal government requires the state to do so or does so first.

It would be nice if someone who has sworn to defend and uphold the Constitution actually understood it. Checks and balances, man. Checks and balances.

Gutting USAID will have a monumental effect on combating climate change. The agency was a key player in renewable energy and disaster protection around the world—until Elon Musk showed up.

In the 90s I went to a luncheon organized by NOW & the special guest was Rosa Parks. Before the luncheon I met her backstage & shook her hand. What an honor of my life! She is an example of how we should fight back. Just say NO! No to trump & NO to musk & NO to the discretion of the constitution!
