There’s a saying that “when you’re in the hole, you stop digging”. We’re in a hell hole of Climate Change, and we must stop digging now! Stop Deforestation Stop Fossil Fuels #ClimateActionNow

🚨An ICE agent accused a U.S. citizen of “impeding” because she refused to drive her car into another vehicle. In the video, an ICE agent yells at a woman, in her car, to move. She explains that she can’t move because she will hit another vehicle. She isn’t refusing… or trying to block them… she is trying to avoid committing a crime. “I’m not impeding. I’m trying to get out of the fucking way. You see how narrow it is.” The agent then tells her to back up. Her response… “You are endangering me. Get out of my way so I can back up. I’m going to hit this car.” And this is exactly why it is so dangerous when ICE agents claim someone was “weaponizing their vehicle.” Because we keep seeing the same problem… ICE agents create chaotic situations by blocking roads, surrounding vehicles, and giving conflicting commands. Then, when someone tries to navigate that chaos, they claim they were being attacked. When the government creates the danger, everyone else is left to deal with the consequences.

Buttigieg: You can see it in the carnival of corruption that is Washington, D.C., today. The leader of the free world flying around in a secondhand jumbo jet from a foreign country while he makes a billion dollars on crypto deals propped up by foreign leaders. A Supreme Court saying that a president, even if he used the government to murder someone, could not be held accountable for the crime. Nine out of ten House races drawn so that you know who’s going to win before the first vote is cast in a 50/50 country. This is not an academic concern. This hurts us. This is why things aren’t working properly. This is how they can make you pay more at the pump for a war you never asked for, how they burned down the Department of Education while we’re worried about kids who can’t do math or read like they’re supposed to. This is why we can’t have nice things. But it doesn’t have to be this way. And that’s what we’re here to do something about.

This is Massive from Brazilian President Lula👏 🇧🇷Lula: "We’re not backing a war Trump started over a foolish story about Iran’s nukes. I was there in 2010. We signed a deal. Peaceful enrichment only." "US said the same about Saddam and. 20+ years later, where are they? He can fool everyone not me."🔥🔥 The man completely exposed Trump and Netanyahu👌 What massive courage 👏. He is getting popular all over the globe because of his spine 💪

Protestors in Maine are now surrounding Susan Collins’ office after ICE murdered a 26-year-old Colombian man who was authorized to work in the US and had a social security number. Collins voted to give ICE $70 billion.

.@SarahLongwell25: "This isn't even a close call on Todd Blanche. The fact that we are in a world where Republicans could see fit to make this guy the highest law enforcement officer in the land should cause people to freak out. It is an insane thing."

Murray: Is it true that people making under $184,000 pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate? Dahl: Yes Murray: And the rate for someone making $1,000,000? Dahl: 2.2%

#BREAKING: Rep Raskin re Kash Patel: “…he ran around the country talking about how important it was to release the #Epstein files until he got in, and then participated actively in the cover up of the Epstein files.” 🤦‍♀️

🚨 Rep. Sarah Jacobs just left Pete Hegseth STUNNED in this hearing. With 2,500 Marines from her district off the coast of Iran and military families calling her office in panic, she asked the question no one else would: “Do you believe the president is mentally stable enough to be Commander-in-Chief?” Hegseth deflected hard. She didn’t flinch. Then she dropped this:“If you think this is what winning looks like… maybe we should be questioning your mental stability.” Pure accountability. No notes. It takes a woman to say what needs to be said when lives and billions of dollars are on the line. This clip is everything.

Batteries can now meet 75 percent of average grid demand and 44 percent of peak demand for 4 hours every day in the world's 4th-largest economy at a cost less than 1 percent the price of electricity California’s main grid now has over 17 GW of batteries, along with over 23 GW of solar and 12 GW of wind.  Average demand is less than 23 GW. The growth of solar, wind, and batteries has helped eliminate 62 percent of all fossil gas use on the grid in 2026 versus 2023. Strikingly, those batteries can now meet three-quarters of average demand and 44 percent of peak demand for four hours every day. What is more, wind-water-solar renewables have met more than 100 percent of grid demand for 100 of the last 101 days and for 87 percent of all days in 2026, for an average of 5.4 hours per day. Given the low cost of batteries, solar, and wind relative to the price of electricity, it is abundantly clear that no major barrier remains to eliminating fossil gas for electricity entirely in California, but also ultimately throughout the world.

Everytime your President's attacks Canada you may want to send him this.

Only TWO countries retaliated against the U.S. over tariffs: China and Canada. Canada is one of America’s closest allies. It’s time for them to start acting like it.

Paramount is reportedly considering leaving California if the state’s Attorney General sues to stop its proposed takeover of Warner Bros. That’s all the more reason to stop Paramount from amassing even more power.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents were caught racially profiling and stalking a U.S. citizen, before pulling him over and demanding he prove his citizenship. According to the man filming, ICE followed him until they initiated a stop. As they detained the U.S. citizen, an agent reached into his vehicle and tried to take his ID. The man asked, “Why are you snatching my stuff?” The agent replied, “I’m not snatching your stuff. This is a lawful stop. Are you going to give me your ID?” Except… if this man is a U.S. citizen, what exactly was the lawful basis for the stop… and running his ID? The Fourth Amendment doesn’t become meaningless just because an ICE agent thinks someone looks undocumented. And here’s what makes even less sense… even if the vehicle was registered to someone who was undocumented, his driver’s license would immediately show he wasn’t that person. So, why was ICE still running his information through their system? Because if federal agents can stop Americans, demand identification, and investigate them simply because of how they look, then the constitutional protections, every American is supposed to have, don’t mean anything at all.

🚨 MIC DROP OF THE YEAR Mehdi Hasan just went nuclear on Trump : “Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant, the grandson of an immigrant, and married to an immigrant. In fact, two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.” The crowd reaction says it all: Speech at the No Kings rally.

Once again, a detainee at the Eloy Detention Center told me about how they're being abused and tortured here. Chlorinated water, worms in fountains, food that looks like vomit, people getting sick, and working for $3/day while getting harassed and threatened by staff. I'll have more to say about my 11th oversight visit to Eloy, but I'm going to keep fighting to drain the $250B that ICE has secured to keep treating people like slaves.

Hi. Me again. Today is 201 days since the deadline to release the Epstein files. Laws are supposed to mean something. Why are survivors and the public still waiting on millions of files? Transparency delayed is not accountability.

Nichols: It’s almost like we have a relative in the room, and there’s something deeply wrong with him. And we’ve all agreed not to talk about it. But there is something deeply wrong with him. His friends know it, his critics know it. His staff, I’m sure, knows it. The world knows it. World leaders know it. And most importantly, our enemies know it, which is why they don’t take him seriously. Nobody hangs on his words. They kind of do, but mostly out of freakish curiosity to see what kind of wild thing he’s going to say next, not because his words have any inherent meaning or reflect policy. You know, I spent years teaching students that when the president speaks, it’s policy, and you must pay attention when the president speaks because nobody can contradict him. Now, you know, are we really cutting off all trade with Spain? Who knows? Maybe. Maybe not. It might have just been a stray electron, you know, careening around inside his brainpan. Who knows? But this is really dangerous because in the middle of all this stuff—and we can laugh about, you know, the Islamic Republic of Japan and all of that—but he made several statements about an ongoing war that the United States is losing. And no one’s even trying to pretend that they can make any sense of it. And I’ll just add one last thing that you just brought up. If this were any other president, this would be a national crisis. I mean, Joe Biden got somebody’s name wrong, and it was headlines. The president gets all kinds of things wrong, completely, you know, is out to lunch at an important NATO summit, and, you know, it’s Wednesday.
