Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

The world has changed before and, when it did, it wasn’t because a president, a prime minister, a CEO or a celebrity decided it had to. It began when ordinary people – people of no particular power, wealth, or fame – decided that the world could and should be different.

New piece about the way we talk about the climate as if it's the weather, and why we need to transform our discussions. This wasn't something that happened. And we need to make sure we never talk about it that way again.

No, the world has not breached the 1.5C global warming target. It’s a climate target - which means it’s an average that must be sustained over at least a decade. We currently sit at 1.2 C. Which is already very bad. The science is clear: every bit of warming matters, every action matters.

However small or large, whatever you did to help push Gaetz to withdrawing was worthwhile and necessary. Keep that same energy for the next one and the one after that, and remember that we got this win when we inevitably lose a few. They only truly beat us when we stop giving a shit

HR 9495 is a direct attack on nonprofits and organizations that keep Trump and MAGA extremists in check. Rep. Lloyd Doggett is speaking out, but we need more champions like him in Congress.

📌I'm a Navy vet, and was the Managing Editor of Stars & Stripes, the editorially independent newspaper that covers the troops and their families overseas. 📌I wish to GOD I never had to write this, but you REALLY need to read it. (And if you are asking what to do, share it. Information is POWER.)
