Newsom on Trump's military parade: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, you see it with Putin, you see it with dictators around the world that are weak ... Weakness masquerading as strength ... that's about as small as it gets ... that's Donald Trump."

Fires drove record loss of world’s forests last year, ‘frightening’ data shows. Burning, worsened by global heating, overtook farming and logging as biggest cause of destruction of tropical forests www.theguardian.com/environment/...
