If you are a scientist or policy expert working on something related to climate or the environment, and your work has been impacted by these cuts, either directly or indirectly, and you want to tell @thebulletin.org about it, you can email me [email protected] (or [email protected])

Today at El Capitan YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK HUNG Upside Down To SHOW SUPPORT for our National Park Rangers and Workers To show support for our National Forest Service Workers What tRump/MuskDOGE has done is despicable Our National Treasures are in Jeopardy People Wildlife Plantlife

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

AG Kris Mayes is Fighting Back Against the Trump-Musk 'Coup' Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes joins MeidasTouch to discuss efforts she is taking to fight back against Donald Trump and Elon Musk's violations of the Constitution Ben Meiselas and MeidasTouch Network Feb 23

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism. As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

The people who were waiting for those specific kidneys? I sure hope they were told EXACTLY what happened.

Grimly fascinating read. Sadists R Us leading the US federal govt.

Texas banned abortion. Then sepsis rates soared. Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion in 2021. @propublica.org found sepsis rates shot up over 50% for women hospitalized when they lost their pregnancies in the 2nd trimester. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

🧵A THREAD: RFK Jr, the HHS Sec, has a long history of vaccine skepticism and has played a prominent role in the antivax rise. Examples: His call to suspend the COVID-19 vax - 6 MONTHS into the pandemic His ties to CURRENT litigation against the makers of Gardasil. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Will you believe us when we tell you they want to kill disabled Americans? When we tell you this is eugenics?

Whatever you think of Mark Cuban, he has a point. Republicans have prioritized GOP-friendly media and platforms for decades. Dems need to do the same. Dem voters are more engaged on Bluesky than other platforms. Dem pols should push their messages here first.

It only took them 9 years? Beside being more accurate, it's fewer letters than "false claims". Think of the ink savings!

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Stories and headlines like these are precisely the ones that we need to keep sharing far-and-wide. Flood the zone with the consequences of Elon and Trump's actions, especially if they hurt those who are generally beloved by the public, like military families. www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

How to find climate data and science the Trump administration doesn’t want you to see

The @nytimes.com changed the story and has now added this info after I caught them last night. This is why I screenshot these stories. There was no editors note added nor did they point out that a stealth edit was made. h/t @shoq.bsky.social

Republican congressmen in the US have introduced a bill to completely withdraw the country from the UN. The bill proposes stopping funding for the UN and its agencies and banning participation in peacekeeping missions.

This is why MAGA "Christians" distract us with baseless attacks on trans people and the greater LGBTQ community The real problems with grooming, molestation & rape go on in their "communities," in their bathrooms! These stories come out weekly if not more frequently all across the U.S.

The waste is coming from the White House. 👇

Extraordinary story the Wall Street Journal. X is threatening advertisers that if they don’t spend more, Elon Musk will use his influence in government to block company mergers. That’s extortion.

“Democrats Do Something” “Take the gloves off like republicans have” “Dem leadership sucks” yada yada yada!! 😒

Howard Lutnick, Trump’s billionaire buddy turned commerce secretary, has confirmed that the administration was simply lying to MAGA supporters about not touching Social Security and Medicare.

In a new filing today, the government says 51 of the 178 undocumented migrants transported to Guantanamo Bay so far have been designated "low-threat." President Trump said Guantanamo would be used to hold the "worst criminal aliens" threatening the U.S.

The dictators don’t want Americans to have ANY services…that’s the rub www.reuters.com/world/us/ame...

NPR's analysis found that, of its verifiable work completed so far, DOGE has cut just $2 billion in spending & NOT the $55 billion that Musk reported saving by ending federal contracts. Musk cannot be trusted to tell the truth & therefore cannot be trusted w/ personal info or the programs we need.

WSJ shined a light on MAGA strong hold Huntington Beach, CA So @chriswarcraft.bsky.social a former punter for the Minnesota Vikings showed up at HB City Council mtg to call out Trump & MAGA Republicans as a nazi movement and then gets arrested for an act of civil disobedience! LFG! Be Like Chris

Trans rights are human rights, and we will fight for them. Always.

Wrote about how easy it is to claim you saved taxpayers billions when you just make shit up. But also how this is the Twitter Files all over again. The dumbest people don't know what they're looking at so it must be a conspiracy www.techdirt.com/2025/02/19/i...

Protests are taking place all over the country tonight against cuts to vital federal services. Here in Washington, people are marching to SpaceX’s offices demanding Musk be ousted from the government.

This is WILD. We need a stronger word for the collective hallucination that the right has been able to generate about Dems, the shit even Dems believe. The Hindu word for something close to this conceptually in Sanskrit is "maya," the illusion of reality the ego generates. Maybe that's close?

SCOOP: On his second day as HHS secretary, RFK Jr., the onetime environmentalist, killed climate change programs at NIH that research and prepare for the health effects of extreme weather and a warming planet. This is not going to make Americans healthy. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

President Zelenskyy is right—Trump is repeating Kremlin propaganda. Russia's invasion of Ukraine was unprovoked, and blaming Kyiv is false and dangerous. The U.S. must stand with our allies against disinformation. 🔗 www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Ah, the golden era of American exceptionalism has reached its peak and the inevitable decline is here. Hear! Hear! Kudos Europe. The little tough guy cosplayer in the Oval Office has successfully destroyed the country

Economists say the GOP budget would destroy Medicaid and "disproportionately benefit the 1%": House Republicans want to pay for their tax cuts by cutting social services used by the working class

Putin has been grooming Trump for decades. When he attacked our elections in 2016, Trump’s campaign repeatedly sought to cooperate with the assault. In office, Trump lashed out at Putin’s enemies and tried to extort Ukraine. Now Trump lies on his behalf. The mask has fallen. He’s Putin’s puppet

I'm sorry, but what the fuck is this www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/w...

Oh yeah, they should rush this plane out as quickly as possible. Drop the security clearances, ignore the boring safety checks, get parts as cheaply as possible & rush rush rush the work, even if it means the engineers are badly sleep deprived. Do whatever it takes to get Mr. Trump his plane now!

Hundreds of asylum seekers were deported from the U.S. to Panama and locked in a hotel without access to lawyers, or their own passports.

1/10 🚨Misinformation doesn’t just mislead—it actively shapes pub opinion, influencing perceptions of political issues, policies, & opponents.A groundbreaking study shows how this tactic energizes radical-right bases while eroding trust in democracy #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Who’s in charge of DOGE 🧐 www.wired.com/story/doge-e...

Key line for the this ruling — and perhaps, the road ahead in this case: "even a strong merits argument cannot secure a temporary restraining order at this juncture." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
