Just read this graf. Share it with people you know who don’t pay attention to politics or news.

That’s the ticket. Show up in court, with your Bar licenses on the line, and answer a judge’s pointed and specific questions on how this deal went down.

Unexpected niche beat for @melissagiragrant.com: Covering the myriad protests happening right now despite claims on social media that 'no one is protesting.'

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.

trying to imagine how loud the calls for my firing would be if i didn’t know who FDR was

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

The VP of the US responding to a journalist. What a great role model for our kids.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

Why is your company, your state, CMS doing business with the big PBMs. They are ripping you off !

RealPage’s software collects pricing information from multiple landlords and feeds it through an algorithm that then recommends an optimal rent level to landlords who use it — in violation of rules that prohibit collusion, DOJ prosecutors alleged. By @heathervogell.bsky.social

Swifties are raising money to help with the LA wildfires!! gofund.me/3a6b9b98

I have an entire book titled "Virtue Signaling," in part to annoy the whiny bigots who accused me of it

Let’s get one thing straight: the cost of the Green New Deal is far less than the cost of losing our planet to the climate crisis.

Welcome to idiocracy.

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️

People have a lot to say about prisoner firefighters in California some of which is not particularly true. This 2020 legislation let them pursue firefighting careers upon release: www.npr.org/2020/09/11/9...

Los Angeles received just 0.16 inches of rain since May 2024, the second-driest period on record. Wildfires are now engulfing the city in January. But some politicians still claim the climate crisis is a "hoax" as they do the bidding of Big Oil. What planet are they living on?

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change. Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk: www.noaa.gov/noaa-wildfir...

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

A serious constitutional crisis is taking place in North Carolina where Republicans are trying to steal a state Supreme Court election by disenfranchising 60,000 voters AFTER the count and recount have showed the Democrat won. Please watch and share. www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5yW...

One of the points I made was in reference to “community notes”. Its being pitched as a new form of moderation. But the reality on X is that almost every time, Notes only show up to the people who volunteer to respond. They aren’t visible to everyone else. So they really don’t have an impact

Vol. 31, Issue 1 of E&H is out: the Bay of Biscay’s anti-nuclear movement; interwar Greece’s Philippi Marshes; watery origins of Brazil’s nuclear energy; the World Heritage Convention in Africa; and extractive landscapes for climate forecasting #envhist liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/toc/whpeh/31...

30 years ago. We knew. Even Exxon knew.

There is no serious legal basis for the litigation challenging the Dem win for NC Supreme Court, and they are not following the proper procedure. This isn't a case of well it was close, a recount might still flip it. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say it's an attempt to steal the election.

I have serious concerns about Pete Hegseth’s background, including his mismanagement of non-profit organizations, accusations of sexual assault and drinking problems, blatant disregard for the contributions of female service members, and support for war crimes and torture.

Happy birthday to #biologist Louis Pasteur (1822-1895)! 🐡🧪 #histsci Though his work was extensive in a variety of fields, I chose to depict him as I see him; a man who saw bacteria in his environment & developed a means of protecting people from this ambient menace.

Well would you look at that.

Selling young men who feel like they’re not masculine enough on the idea that they’ll be basically samurai or cowboys or whatever if they put their money in a speculative financial asset that’ll surely make them rich and tough and desirable sounds like such a classic scam holy cow.

Uline, "a company owned by two of Donald Trump’s top mega-donors, has routinely brought dozens of its workers from Mexico to staff its warehouses in Wisconsin and other locations even though they do not appear to have permission to work in the US, according to a Guardian investigation."

Pinkertons! Shit, somebody hit the 1882 setting on the Wayback Machine!

See? Exactly what they do

I will post this everyday for the next 4 years as a reminder that Jan 6th was a day of insurrection.

Obama and Elizabeth Warren created a new agency to stop Wall Street from screwing over regular people and Trump is going to try to destroy it...again

"We won." Every time I hear a MAGA saying this I laugh to myself. Gonna be a rude awakening when it hits them that they lost, too. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/magas-lost...

This is your daily reminder that this really did happen.
