If you think fertilized eggs are people but parents who've crossed the oceans with their kids aren't, stop pretending your concerns are religious.

It took a pandemic for the world to finally understand that oil is worthless in a society without consumption. That healthcare has to be public, because health is public. That we live in a society, not an economy.

Israeli F-35 are flying very low over Beirut and Beirut airport to terrorize the Lebanese and they brag about it. Israel just violated Security Council resolution SCR 1701, the ceasefire agreement, and international law with absolutely no consequences and the ICC remains silent.

Best voting advice: Voting isn’t marriage. It’s public transport. You’re not waiting for "the one". You’re getting on the bus. And if there isn’t one going exactly to your destination, you don’t stay home and sulk. You take the one that’s going closest to where you want to be. #Germany

Great to see President Trump draining the swamp by finally taking on Big Missing And Exploited Children special interests.

The media has failed the public on a crucial matter: the derangement of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., writes @davidcorn.bsky.social. News reports often describe him as a vaccine skeptic when he is far more dangerous than that.

yyyyyeah maybe we shouldn’t just “relax”

AOC spot on , this is what leadership looks like.

The loss of LIHEAP is devastating or will be if the OMB orders stand roughly in their current form. I don't want to downplay how serious it is and how many people will die if these funds are eliminated. It will pull the floor out from under ~25% of all American's who can't pay their energy bills.

If you have a smidge of power and you catch yourself thinking: Maybe we'll be safe if we: - tone this justice program a bit - take that 'decolonization' reference off the website - nix that grant for decarbonization... know that you are playing your part in Trump's game perfectly. 1/2

🤔 WHEN ARE DEMOCRATS GOING TO STAND UP TO TRUMP and STOP THIS CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS❓️❓️❓️❓️

I've seen this posted a lot and it just really hits home when you realize that history is truly repeating itself. 😱

Breaking news: The White House budget office on Wednesday rescinded an order freezing federal grants, according to a copy of a new memo obtained by The Post, after the administration’s move to halt spending earlier this week provoked a backlash.

Saw this over at the bad place, and it made me laugh.😂

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

The only reason ICE would be at schools is to take innocent children into custody in order to lure their parents. Family separation 2.0. 🚨 Los Angeles school police says it will not comply with ICE.

Climate Change Could Cut the Economy in Half. We’re Not Ready for It. newrepublic.com/article/1905... from @doctorvive.bsky.social via @newrepublic.com

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

The Smithsonian isn't a federal agency, but it gets much of its funding from federal appropriations.

The property insurance industry knows what’s up with climate change and socio economic risk. It’s just about math and science to them. So it’s interesting to see what they have to say www.insurancebusinessmag.com/us/news/brea...

Caroline Kennedy urges Senators to reject her cousin RFK Jr’s nomination “Bobby preys on the desperation of parents of sick children — vaccinating his own children while building a following by hypocritically discouraging other parents from vaccinating theirs,” www.nytimes.com/2025/01/28/h...

The silence from Dems is deafening. We’re exhausted—looking for leadership and starting to feel desperate. Everything feels like it’s slipping away & electeds aren’t acknowledging it, let alone speaking on it. @dougjones.bsky.social sounds like someone who’s actually read the room. More of this!

This is such an important story for understanding recovery. Materials and labor are a huge limiting factor in speed and cost, and we live in a global supply chain about to potentially be disrupted by tariffs. www.wsj.com/business/the...

Silence still from the Australian government. In the meantime, independent scientists are beginning to publish their peer-reviewed data. For example, One Tree Reef had catastrophic mortality (95%) of branching and tabular staghorn corals in 2024. aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

Les milliardaires français continuent de se porter particulièrement bien. Depuis 2019, leur fortune a augmenté en moyenne de 13 millions d’euros par jour ! On le rappelle : 78% des Français sont favorables à une taxation plus importante des plus riches. Alors, qu’attendez-vous @bayrou.fr ? 😏

While many struggle to make ends meet, the wealth of the super-rich has soared. It doesn’t have to be this way. There’s another way—one that prioritises fairness, sustainability, and equality. It starts with making those at the top pay their fair share. Find out more ➡️ bit.ly/40FunBq #Davos

National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) payouts (losses) from Hurricane Helene have reached $3B and growing. Florida accounts for $2.9B (!) of this total. This data confirms that extremely low NFIP take-up rates in inland areas means the vast majority of residential flood losses were uninsured.

This is a serious problem with governmental financial help and low priority, poor counties that are systematically underfunded or forgotten for what passes as "efficient allocation" of benefits ($$ mostly given to richer counties and cities).

Why is the UK so awful at this? Literally dead last in Europe for installed heat pump capacity, and now scrapping legislation to ban gas boilers. Slightly ranty 🧵 www.ehpa.org/market-data/
