This is what’s happening with 1.3C of global heating above preindustrial levels. We’re on track for 3C by 2100. Failure to leave fossil fuels in the ground is a devastating crime against humanity & against all other life on this, our one fragile earth

11 children that have been killed just by the Russian strikes on Kryvyi Rih and Sumy are not the results of "mistakes".Last night's drone strike on Odesa, daily murders of civilians in Kherson& Donetsk regions, attacks on Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv,Dnipro, other Ukrainian cities are not "mistakes."

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

Are we really confident that Mr. Art of the Deal is a better negotiator than the man who wormed his way into the position of being president for life, winning a 2018 congressional vote to end term limits by a margin of 2,962 to 2?

Today, Mohsen Mahdawi, a legal resident of Vermont, walked into an immigration office to complete a final step for citizenship. Instead, he was arrested by plain-clothed, armed individuals with faces covered. This is immoral, inhumane, and illegal. He must receive due process and be released.

avail yourself of Carole Cadwalladr's @carolecadwalla.bsky.social TED talk; she's been instrumental in exposing Putin & Facebook's hands in Brexit—and by extension, Trump's first election hers is an indispensable voice for democracy

I am convinced he’s sending innocent men to a death camp in El Salvador without due process is so he can send whoever he likes to prison without due process. If you think he’s stopping with immigrants you are very much mistaken.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Donald Trump wants to send actual American citizens to foreign prisons… He doesn't care about the Constitution… He doesn't care about democracy… And, he doesn't care about you. Get it, now?!

Again, the contract the US signed with El Salvador directly says that the long term disposition of those it sends to El Salvador is at the discretion of the US.

It’s official: we’ve entered the cover-up phase of the #CorruptCare scandal. Despite promises to cooperate with investigations, the UCP is now directing officials to funnel inquiries through government lawyers. Why get lawyers involved If there’s nothing to hide? youtube.com/shorts/KU45U...

Bernie Sanders made an appearance at Coachella to introduce Clairo. "The future of what happens to America is dependent on your generation. Now, you can turn away and you can ignore what goes on, but if you do that, you do that at your own peril.” Love this dude!

Think yesterday has a claim to be one of best days for this Government. 3 reasons 1. Taking control of the plant/nationalisation popular in of itself 2. More widely it shows Government can take control of situations 3. Gave Labour a definition/purpose that has been lacking

Companies are quietly adding new charges to your bills—and blaming Trump’s tariffs. Dubbed the “this tariff isn’t our fault” fee, it’s the latest way corporations pass the cost of trade wars onto consumers. Tariffs may target foreign goods, but it’s Americans who pay the price.

Not sure what kind of a deal we’d get with the US, but if it undermines our own industries, lowers our standards or risks undoing progress with the EU… then it won’t be worth it. Particularly as - like a house in an earthquake zone - it could collapse at any moment. Good letter in The Times.

We know the SAVE Act is voter suppression. A similar requirement recently introduced in UK. In London elections we found that nearly 30% of voters turned away for not having photo id, DID NOT RETURN. That’s not including those lacking photo id who didn’t attempt to vote. @northjules.bsky.social
