Another dataset I like is from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, which has maps of the US that show we fixed the acid rain problem by implementing stricter emission controls on power plants. nadp.slh.wisc.edu/maps-data/nt...

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

If you believe stupid and uninformed voters are just as much to blame for the mess we’re in as treasonous republicans, we should be following each other. Embrace punching down. It’s time to wake them the fuck up. 👊🏻💥

From the get go of the second Trump administration, it was clear that the president would try to pass a bunch of executive orders without any clear indication that he, or his trusted advisors, actually knew if it was legal. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/wha...

Whenever you ponder how Trump could possibly be president, remember the old saying: “Don’t underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers.“

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇
