Insane this isn’t a bigger global story. Climate change is causing glacier collapse in the Alps. The Swiss town of Blatten was destroyed yesterday. The few buildings that survived the 3.5 million cubic metres of landslide are now slowly drowning as the collapsed mountain damns the river. (🎥 AFP)

Elon Musk led the dismantling of the federal government with absurd threats and actions; wreaked havoc at USAID; disrupted HIV programs; stayed up late to send harassing emails. But what @inaeoh.bsky.social will remember most is his utter disdain for the workers he traumatized.

This guy stole $10 million from the employees of his nursing home to buy himself a luxury yacht and Cartier watches. He PLED GUILTY. And because his Mom gave Trump $1 million, he just got a pardon. And this story barely makes the news today. WTF. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

NEW: Make America the 1980s Again. With tax cuts for oligarchs, draconian social program cuts, a new version of Star Wars & siding with South African whites, Trump is reviving policy disasters of the Reagan years. Read all about it in my OUR LAND newsletter. link.motherjones.com/public/40005420

Apocalyptic scenes from Kyiv overnight. Russia sent in 250 strike drones & ballistic missiles. 8 cities attacked & ALL civilian targets - colleges, shops, homes. History shows that weakness only emboldens the aggressor & Trump’s strategy with Putin has been a catastrophe. (📸 Cyrille Amoursky)
