Expect Elon Musk, and now Project 2025 architect Russell Vought, to do what Trump promised he would do all along... eradicate Social Security and Medicare. www.wsj.com/politics/elo...

At what point do we call this a constitutional crisis?! Russell Vought is Trump’s path to authoritarianism. “He was so clear to us that he believes that it’s a President’s power to ignore the laws as written, that it’s a President’s power to ignore the Constitution.” - @jeff-merkley.bsky.social

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak. Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

I've seen some wondering why a person married to a US citizen might not be documented. It took me 4 years & over $1500 to get residency-and I'm a 🇨🇦 married to a 🇺🇸. In my experience, it's incredibly hard for someone whose first language isn't English and can't spare the $$ to navigate this process.

'... a fundamental misunderstanding of how climate change works. It’s not a single factor to weigh against others. It’s an intensifier — a force that amplifies and worsens existing conditions.' #wildfire #climatechange

I love Costco. I love their business model, their higher wages, their leadership development…the number of people who work there for years and years and years. I love their gas prices and quality of their gas. I love their bakery, the efforts to maximize containers to increase sustainability…

One day after the White House environmental justice website went dark, please join me in welcoming the father of environmental justice to Bluesky. Yes, sociologist @drrobertbullard.bsky.social literally defined the concept in his 1990 book, Dumping in Dixie: Race, Class and Environmental Quality.

Trump ordered the National Institutes of Health to cancel their review panels on cancer research. If you or someone you know has cancer, heart disease, diabetes, or one of many countless illnesses that needs a cure — this could have devastating effects.

Wow! Yet as other states and nations rocket ahead on renewables, under Cuomo and now Hochul, New York State has stalled utility-scale solar and wind development. NY is at only ~5% wind/solar on the grid. BUILD, Hochul. Get serious!

Good analysis of why fact checking on social media matters in a world where false claims are sticky + go viral so fast. But no mention of how X + Meta have altered their algorithms to suppress expert accounts & factual info. Fact checking on those platforms isn’t a level field. It’s a steep cliff.

I think this is one of my favourite colourful climate chart type things, because it depicts two things at once: - Things are going to get worse, no matter what - The degree to which they get worse depends on decisions made today theconversation.com/my-new-dark-... by @edhawkins.org
