Climate Central has a new daily records tool based on the work of @climateguyw.bsky.social . Interesting: El Paso, Tampa, Phoenix, and Tucson have set over 100 daily record highs since 2020. climatecentral.observablehq.cloud/local-records/

I was happily grading earthquake assignments when I got the Shake Alert for the M7.0 earthquake west of NorCal coast. I was able to watch waves roll into town on my RaspiShake. Only minor chandelier sway. Please fill out the Did You Feel It page for this event. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/...

Nothing like being in a teams meeting with the state geologist when you get an earthquake alert! Expect the magnitude and location to change some as more data is analyzed. M 6.6 - 63 km WNW of Petrolia, CA earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/...

America is just about to enter its "Run By Juvenile, Impulsive, Needy Trolls" era.

It's worth noting that Joe Biden, by issuing a sweeping pardon, is protecting his son from *future* retribution by an incoming president who has promised to use the Justice Department as a weapon against people he doesn't like.

Stop calling Trump’s nominees “loyalists.” They are henchmen.

Oregon Democrats will have supermajorities in both the state House and Senate next year. www.opb.org/article/2024...

I don't think we need to have any more discussions about "norms" and "precedent." What we need to do is prepare to sue the shit out of this administration in a zillion places in an attempt to sabotage it until we can flip Congress in 2026.

Donald Trump will NEVER do for America what Barack Obama and Joe Biden have. ❤️💙 if you will miss the leadership of these two! Thank you both!

New Rule: You shall not complain about Hunter Biden's pardon on my feed unless you also admit the Supreme Court pardoned Trump for a coup.

🧵 WHY WERE HUNTER BIDEN'S CASES UNPRECEDENTED? (1/5) Hunter Biden was investigated for FIVE years by the DOJ. After FIVE years of investigations, the Trump-appointed US Attorney, David Weiss, in Delaware agreed with Hunter's lawyers to a non-prosecution agreement.

"Way to go, Joe!" Says Rep Jasmine Crockett about the pardon of Hunter Biden. "We have a 34 count convicted felon that's about to walk into the WH. So for anyone who wants to clutch their pearls now, I would say take a look in the mirror."

Hunter Biden paid all of his taxes, stayed sober over 5 years and never harmed anyone. This pardon is a fresh start.

Good.

JUST HITTING THE DOCKET: Here is Hunter Biden’s Declaration to the Court in California that he has formally accepted the “full and unconditional pardon” granted by President Biden. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Salmon!!

There it is

According to MAGA logic, their Republican Jesus blames the poor for being poor, treats immigrants like criminals, wants the sick to have high insurance or no coverage at all and wants taxes to be used to help the rich instead of the needy and hungry.

I was already excited to click on a news story about Rudy Giuliani having a meltdown in court today and YELLING at the judge. But nothing prepared me for the courtroom sketch

Great idea.

Christians, if you’re celebrating mass deportations of distraught, exhausted human beings seeking refuge, you probably shouldn't be sweetly singing about a baby with "no crib for a bed." johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/christian-...

Funny because true.

Current mood.

Boys are in warming up and drying off. Unfortunately their attire didn’t keep them dry 😞 hopefully I can find something giant enough that can hold up to NY weather 🌧️ ❄️

Wish I would have seen this at the other place. Would have already placed my order by now. These are very nice calendars and it’s a good cause.

Chuck Schumer has a serious learning impediment.

Take this as a win for the good guys.🥳 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

MSNBC put together a collection of videos showing Republicans flipping their position on Trump

Literally..

Up to no good. Probably 😂

Elon Musk just called the COVID-19 pandemic that killed at least 1.4 million Americans a “scamdemic.” My dad died during the pandemic; we weren't able to visit him in the hospital because of it. Every aspect of that horrible tragedy was real. And exacerbated by Musk’s co-POTUS. I’m seeing red. 😡

Hard to believe this is back AGAIN. Please call your reps.

Yep.
