Cognitive Decline? These Were Trump’s 11 Most Senile Moments This Year newrepublic.com/article/2047... via @newrepublic.com

Happy solstice, and let the light shine in! #pnw #wawx #WinterSolstice

The Pierce County sewage treatment plant has the best view in town. That’s Anderson Island in the distance. I’m walking at Chambers Bay, where it’s sunny but breezy, making the 47° feel like 40°. #pnw #wawx #UniversityPlace

Our communities are stronger with immigrants. We all belong here and deserve dignity, safety, and respect. On #InternationalMigrantsDay, we once again denounce Trump's fascist actions of detaining and deporting community members, tearing apart families, and creating a culture of fear.

NEW: The Trump admin quietly implemented a new policy that essentially bans abortion at VA facilities—including in cases of rape or serious health risk—confirming what we've always known: Trump's promise to leave abortion to the states was a lie.

Several elected leaders from northern Arizona are calling on Attorney General Kris Mayes to determine if the Trump administration’s cuts to wildfire mitigation efforts are illegal.

Diné author, educator and artist Brendan Basham was the first-ever culinary resident at Ucross, a foundation that hosts artists in Wyoming, and is working on his second novel after his celebrated debut "Swim Home to the Vanished."

Arizona’s state leaders have officially given their approval to the next election’s rulebook, but it could still face lawsuits from Republicans.

If you wanted to hurt this nation by undermining our energy independence, you could not pick a better strategy than this. Who is he really working for? www.nytimes.com/2025/12/22/c...

The bigotry is palpable. And unconstitutional. www.texastribune.org/2025/12/22/t...

Saguaro national Park is just amazing.

‘We finally have a tool to at least shave some tenths of a degree off’: author Bill McKibben on the promise of renewable energy: The activist and author of Here Comes the Sun discusses rapid advances in solar and wind power and how the US ceded leadership in the sector to its main rival B...

McKibben: “In Australia, they’ve built so much solar power [that] electricity will be free for all for 3 hours [per day]. Humans for 700k yrs worked hard to get energy…Now you don’t have to, if you’re in a place [w/wisdom] to build solar panels & wind turbines.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

‘This is the Costco of energy, man!’: author Bill McKibben on the promise of renewables

You may recognize Fred as an acclaimed eco-spiritual leader, singer, and one of our 2025 Convocation musicians. “Jesus told us to welcome the stranger. Instead, ICE is brutalizing our neighbors with wanton cruelty. In this Christmas season, I want to light a candle of kindness and compassion.”

Caring for the earth is inextricable from caring for those of our own species. Isolation, uprooting, is terrorism of the spirit-and-body. Rev. Fred Small was among 4 arrested at the Burlington, MA, detention center for trying to deliver basic necessities to those kidnapped by ICE...

Letting them know they’re not alone and not forgotten; Christmas caroling outside ICE detention center, Burlington MA on a frigid night!!

I guess we can be grateful Bari Weiss didn't spend years slowly bleeding CBS News of its integrity. Those of us who still care about this nation have been saved a lot of time and effort explaining why Bari Weiss shouldn't be allowed within 500 feet of actual journalists.

"While the administration focuses on pseudo-terrorists, it risks losing focus on the battle against actual no-kidding terrorists." @maxboot.bsky.social on all the ways Trump is endangering us with stupid policies unrelated to reality or facts. The stuff of nightmares. Gift link 🎁 wapo.st/4aAy3tL

Two of the four people arrested taking care packages to ICE detainees were old friends, all four are heroes! Thanks Fred, Sabine, and everyone else! www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...

That’s not what an independent Fed is.

2025 gave us record heat, historic droughts, and billion-dollar climate disasters, all while the Trump administration rolled back federal disaster funding and extreme heat protections for workers.

As families struggle with rising electricity bills, the Trump administration is intent on delivering coal for the holidays and forcing households to pay for it . This bailout of the failing coal industry locks us into higher costs. Coal isn’t just dirty — it’s expensive.

PFAS. Phthalates. BPA. These chemicals persist in the environment and our bodies — disrupting hormones and weakening immune systems. Researchers say it’s time for stricter standards on the chemicals in plastics. Pharmaceuticals must prove safety, but plastics slip through with little oversight.

Good news! After years of public pressure and Earthjustice litigation, the U.S. Postal Service has rolled out more than 2,600 electric vehicles for mail carriers at 65 sites around the country, delivering cleaner air for our communities. @righttozero.bsky.social

TPUSA attracts the worst people. Here’s why:

Minaj is a bad role model for girls imo.

The administration is doing the bidding of Big Oil, and sidelining climate science. JanePAC is coming for every seat with a role to play in protecting our democracy, and our planet — and we’re going to win. Join the fight by texting "JANE" to 40506.

Thanks El Cerrito/Richmond Annex Walk & Roll for holding a powerful vigil yesterday for Donna Revecho, who was killed while crossing San Pablo Ave. It was inspiring to join dozens to stand up for safe streets. We need to hold Caltrans accountable to make San Pablo safer & prevent more tragedies!

Bari Weiss praised El Salvador's dictator before spiking '60 Minutes' story on his torture prison. new w/ @premthakker.bsky.social @swin24.bsky.social @zeteo.com zeteo.com/p/bari-weiss...

A Tesla worker in my district was electrocuted because the company cut corners. OSHA’s fine was just $50,000. Elon Musk makes that back in nine minutes from federal contracts alone. A worker’s life is worth more than a rounding error to a billionaire.

Went an a hike in 60 degree weather. The photo is NCAR, one of the World's top sites for atmospheric research. The site has been targeted for destruction by trump. With that said, winter weather has fundamentally changed here and NCAR is performing a vital national security function modeling how.

Colorado leaders mobilize bipartisan congressional coalition to protect NCAR trib.al/wjezHSY

In the span of four days, we’ve built a coalition of over 80 lawmakers — including several Republicans — to stop the dismantling of NCAR. I’m grateful to them for their efforts as we work to secure language protecting NCAR in the upcoming CJS appropriations bill. We will not back down! 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Colorado stands up for science. NCAR isn't just your weather app. It's keeping us prepared up to the MINUTE when extreme weather hits. In an emergency, preparation and information keep us safe. Without NCAR, we are flying blind, just as extreme weather becomes more frequent. #SaveNCAR

It's not a government; it's a fire sale.

BOYCOTT!

Veteran Flagstaff outdoor photographer John Burcham is recovering from a recent rock-climbing accident in a remote Sedona canyon.

It is insane to me that people are willing to dole out billions in taxpayer money to people who are already incredibly wealthy yet won't fund their schools, roads or public transit. 🤦‍♂️

NASHVILLE - TN HS Dems Tennessee High School Dems deliver a petition to Senator @MarshaBlackburn to stop the just-announced government partnership forcing TP USA chapters into every school in Tennessee. (“to stop far right extremism”)
