AC is SO MUCH EASIER to decarbonize than heating...we're already like halfway to carbon free AC in the US, while heat is like 10% of the way there.

Thousands of peaceful protesters have lined the road for over 8 continuous miles just outside of Washington DC right now!

They did not vote for a king and they are well aware that Trump is trying to cut off their health care benefits to give tax breaks to him and his billionaire donors friends.

Donald Trump’s proposed budget would gut American science It would slash cancer research, drug trials, space exploration, and so much more.

Cutting $20 billion to NIH over 25 years may save $500 billion on paper, but it’d end up costing $8.2 trillion in lost human health.

But NIH isn't the only thing being cut. The budget also slashes all NSF-funded science by 73 percent. NASA faces β€œthe biggest single-year cut to NASA in history."

BREAKING: Trump and Republicans say they’ll focus their efforts on defeating Native American candidate Deb Haaland, who is running for governor of New Mexico.

She has protected sacred lands and stood up to bullies. It’s obvious why they want her to lose.

JD Vance calls UK 'some random country that hasn't fought war in 30 years' US Vice President JD Vance said the only way to secure lasting peace in Ukraine is to grant the US an economic upside - and slammed the UK as 'some random country that hasn't fought a war in 30 years'

this guy is such an arrogant little prick. he’s done nothing in his life but suck up to a progression of would-be daddies but he struts around like his shit doesn’t stink.

This reality show premise of finding the dumbest MFer in the country and making him president isn’t going well. Season 1 sucked. Season 2 is much worse.

I was expecting al green to be thrown out, sure, and then other people to have stood up with him, and one by one they all get thrown out like Spartacus. They make them be removed. I was expecting that because movies have made me expect courage, solidarity, and honor

JD Vance Was Born James Donald Bowman But Changed His Name 3 Times? "What is JD Vance hiding," one X user asked of the Republican vice presidential candidate.

Under the SAVE Act the current VP would be disqualified from voting, since his name doesn’t match what’s on his birth certificate. Your move Jedediah Deuteronomy.

We’re witnessing in real time why every Shitler business goes bankrupt: He’s a silver spoon, porridge-brained moron who doesn’t know how to do jack shit, and hires more pudding-brained morons who also don’t know how to do jack shit, and the entire con implodes under its own top-heavy incompetence.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Medicaid is not for sale.
NASA is not for sale.
The Post Office is not for sale.
America is not for sale.

We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Me: BATMAN BEGINS is great, but I was amused by the writers’-fiat plot device that a place can be SO corrupt that some reasonably-organized foreign actor can just puppeteer it on a whim.

Me, 20 years later: fuck

The top health care companies in America spent 95% of their profits to make their CEOs & stockholders obscenely rich.

How many Americans would be alive today if those companies spent $2.6 trillion on disease prevention and primary care, instead of stock buybacks and dividends?

I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.
