Trump's higher ed ransom note is here - everyone would have to acquiesce to their unprecedented demands or not be "given priority for grants," plus they can demand "reimbursement" for "violations" www.wsj.com/us-news/educ... A mechanism to enforce fealty. An attack on academic freedom and democracy

Take the good news seriously too

🔥 38% OF RUSSIA’S OIL CAPACITY DOWN AS YAROSLAVL REFINERY BURNS Vlog 1184: War in Ukraine youtu.be/wy88vELekjI

I’m confused how it is despicable to ask that question. These are exactly the kinds of questions we have been begging reporters & TV hosts to ask. You see when they do get asked how sensitive they are about it. Much, much more of this. More crypto questions, Qatar, UAE, etc bsky.app/profile/atru...

I never expected to see a democracy fall to fascism in my lifetime but it is happening and the UK will be next unless we speak out now. Trump’s terror memo (audio) open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

As of September 28, 38% of Russia's primary oil refining capacity - equivalent to 338,000 tons per day - was out of operation. Drone attacks that have struck more than two dozen major oil refineries in Russia since early August have driven the Russian fuel market into an unprecedented crisis.

America so needs to rid themselves of this shackle.

Jane Goodall's mother, Vanne Goodall, accompanied her to Tanzania when she began her research in 1960, as British colonial authorities would not allow the young woman to conduct research alone in the field. Thank you to all the empathetic and empowering mums out there. Thank you, Vanne Goodall.

Lutnick on being invited over to his then-neighbor Jeffrey Epstein's house: He invites us in and there's a massage table in the middle of the room. I say, "Massage table in the middle of your house? How often you have a massage? And he says, "Every day...and the right kind of massage."

The EU and NATO used to debate if they should defend Ukrainian territory or not. Now the they are debating if they should defend their own territory or not.

Welcome to Heaven, Dr. Jane Goodall. You made the world a better place.

From 1939-1945 German officers also listened to speeches from civilians about how the laws of war didn’t apply to them. And then they participated in the Holocaust, starved millions of prisoners of war, destroyed villages and cities, and were defeated.

Europe needs to put an end to this, now!

Empathy + Action = A Better World Thank you, Jane Goodall

A whopping 38% of Russia’s refining capacity is now offline, according to The Economist. Gasoline output fell by 1 million tons in September which has created a 20% domestic shortfall. Repairs may take months because of sanctions limiting access to parts and tech.

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals? J: I didn't see it D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

“There is something genuinely wrong with this man and the 25th amendment ought to be invoked.” Truth bomb from @govpritzker.illinois.gov 💣

California and New York paying taxes to this federal government in 2025 is tantamount to England and France paying taxes to Germany in 1940. The money is going to be used *against* you.

It’s 100% Trump’s fault! Republicans don’t do anything without his approval! We have the weakest & most Pathetically incompetent GOP Congress & President… in US History!

Enjoy some truth about the #TrumpShutdown @markwarner.bsky.social

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

Our generals serve the country, not an ex-Fox News clown looking for headlines.

Barbra Streisand is joining Jane Fonda and 600+ entertainment figures in re-launching the Committee for the First Amendment. Fonda announced the revival of the organization, initially founded by her father, Henry Fonda. The organization was founded in the 1940s to defend free speech against fascism.

“It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” ― Jane Goodall 💙 RIP to a real one. My childhood hero

BINGO!

We have lost a remarkable soul, but her spirit and vision will continue to guide us.💔 Thank you Jane Goodall 🌴🐒☀️
