Chris Murphy’s @chrismurphy.bsky.social basic insight is that this not a normal threat and,therefore, it calls for much more than a normal response. Join him. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/u...

Governor Janet Mills has brought thousands of heat pumps to Maine and now has brought some righteous heat to Donald Trump. Way to bring the heater Janet! x.com/nanditab1/st...

Our wrongfully fired wonderful park rangers are trying to reach “hearts and minds.” Help them. Go give a republican congressman a piece of yours. And no need to be subtle. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/s...

Our first daffodil of the year popped open to celebrate Trump’s declining poll numbers. Flowers of resistance are rising in democracy’s garden across the nation.

Trump alleging that Ukraine started the war with Putin is akin to Blutto Blukarski in Animal House alluding to when “the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.” Brilliant. Slava Ukraine. www.cnn.com/2025/02/19/e...

Chris Wright, Sec. of Energy was more than a bit off when he complained that, “We are scaring our children with stories about extreme weather.” It’s not the story that’s scary Chris, its the real flame burning down a child’s house and the real water flooding their bedroom. bsky.app/profile/dfen...

In the best tradition of Copernicus and Galileo, our courageous scientists are enlightening the public about our environment, undaunted by Trump’s attempted suppression. Courage is contagious. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Trump’s latest assertion that he can just ignore the law reminds me of another man who would be king, fellow by the name of Nixon. Not a happy ending. www.dailykos.com/stories/2022...

Pretty clear Trump is more interested in making sure his billionaire cronies clean up with giant tax cuts, than in cleaning up the nuclear waste at Hanford. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Trump denies climate change, cuts off funds for fire fighting, then denies emergency response when towns burn. When it comes to fire, he gets you coming and going. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Putting an anti-vaxer in charge of America’s health as measles makes a comeback, shows we need a vaccine against a new virus - the virus of an anti-science brain worm that so infects the wholeTrump attitude, from climate change to vaccinations. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/s...

We’re getting up on our hind legs now. bsky.app/profile/jama...

Trump’s total war on clean energy industries isn’t just damaging to our air, it’s damaging to our economy. The only things up in the Trump economy are inflation and unemployment in the auto and battery industries.

Justice William O. Douglas knew the danger we face: “As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. It is in such twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air - however slight - lest we become victims of the darkness.” Fight the darkness.

Like you, I am joining Blue Sky because this community believes that even in these dark days, the sky’s the limit. We’re not cowering to tyranny. Onward.
