Remember: this is only happening because of Trump. He is the arsonist. He is to blame.

This is phenomenal. Sea surface temperatures are >5C above average to the west of the UK and around Iceland. It's the strongest area of anomalous warmth on the planet at the moment. It's the warmest in recorded history for northwest Europe.

Tourism expected to be down $12.5 billion in 2025. You can’t ban, scare, and detain your way to prosperity. MAGA might not care about tourism crashing, but will they care when hotels go empty and red-state towns lose jobs?

The “big, beautiful” bill ain’t beautiful—it’s bullshit. House Republicans just voted for the largest cut to SNAP & Medicaid in U.S. history—turning their backs on their own damn constituents: the working people they were sent here to represent. They don’t serve the people. They serve the rich.

The footage confirms what we knew all along: The Trump administration lied about Mahmoud Khalil's arrest. His detention is illegal and unjustified. It's time for him to come home.

DOGE is supposedly trying to cut government jobs, but the "department" itself is hiring. And they offer government jobs that pay near the top of the scale, from $120,000 to $190,000. Inexperienced Elon hires are making more than veteran civil servants. www.wired.com/story/doge-a...

Schools are using dangerous surveillance technologies from Ed Tech companies to monitor students' private writings and communications, including their texts, emails, and social media. This spying doesn't make students safer, and undermines their privacy and ability to express themselves.

Trump started a trade war, lost it, and now calls a 90-day pause a “victory.” It’s like lighting your kitchen on fire and asking for applause because you found the fire extinguisher.

Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development. Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system. Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

CDC reports 216 child deaths this flu season, the most in 15 years. Experts say the decline in vaccinations is certainly playing a role in this season's loss of life. More US children have died this flu season than at any time since the 2010 swine flu pandemic👇

Here’s (most of) Bernie’s speech at Coachella. He touches on climate change, reproductive rights, working families, ignoring politics “at your peril.” Classic Bernie messaging, maybe a bit stale but, I suppose, no less true for its repetition. “We need you to stand up—to fight for justice.”

My son's grade 6 teacher is reading "What is the Underground Railroad" with her class. This is a school in Canada. It touches a bit on the fact that some slaves escaped to Canada for freedom and safety. It's a real eye opener for these kids. They had no idea about the slavery days. #BookSky
