In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

Yes, it is entirely correct to point out that ICE officers do not have any legal authority to break into somebody’s home unless they get a judicial warrant; which they generally cannot do, because judges only issue warrants for probable cause of crimes, not immigration law violations.

An unpublished document from the EU envisions direct public support for overseas LNG (say, in the US) Problem is that the same document identifies fossil fuel import dependence as costly and source of price volatility So why would EU deepen their LNG dependence? gasoutlook.com/analysis/eur...

Wild. -> 1% of Americans view Canada as an enemy (56% ally) -> 27% (!!) of Canadians now view the US as an enemy (30% ally) “Enemy” is a strong word. This massive shift in Canadian sentiment highlights the anger we are feeling in response to Trump’s aggression and disrespect.

Will the EU agree to buy dirty US LNG it doesn't need to keep Trump happy while he sells them out to Putin? @nickcunningham.bsky.social has the latest info and also highlights how Japan is a major player in trying to get the world hooked on LNG.

I’ve spent the last 8 years working on a book about forever chemicals, or #PFAS, and the chemical industry’s decades-long campaign to cover up their dangers. What I discovered along the way is deeply disturbing, and yet the journey has left me hopeful. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/554198...

Heartbreaking story. Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, age 11, took her own life after her bullies constantly threatened to call ICE to have her Hispanic parents deported. Her story is one of the many real human consequences of Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric. youtu.be/vwMGdnM24Cw?...

Would have thought we had learned the lessons from 2022, but apparently not... A great way to undermine EU credibility on climate internationally while achieving absolutely nothing on lowering the cost of gas for EU consumers in any sort of meaningful time frame.
