As Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s family, we commend the British authorities for taking meaningful action and treating the Epstein files with the urgency they demand. While these arrests aren’t for the underlying exploitation, they are a crucial step toward truth and accountability. The contrast with the continued inaction in the United States is undeniable. Survivors deserve transparency, swift investigation, and real justice, no matter who is implicated. Sky and Amanda Roberts
Virginia Giuffre's family on the arrest of ex-U.K. Ambassador Peter Mandelson:
"The contrast with the continued inaction in the United States is undeniable. Survivors deserve transparency, swift investigation, and real justice, no matter who is implicated."

WOW! As of this morning only about 350 letters had been sent out urging our Delegates to hold data centers accountable and lower our energy costs. BUT after we blasted this call to action, we hit our goal of sending over 1,000 letters to our Delegates. Keep going!

you won't believe this one weird trick for ending homelessness
Cyanide heap leach mining is inherently high-risk, especially in arid, windy, seismically active regions like eastern Oregon. The reason monitoring stretches 20 years is because failures often show up slowly, after attention fades. Take a guess at who is stuck with the consequences.

$2.1 billion extracted.
$300k a year to the county.
470 acres of public land.
20+ years of monitoring.
This math doesn’t sit right.

Hollywood loves our trauma. Black actors are more likely to win awards when playing roles tied to slavery, servitude, or trauma.
Lupita Nyong’o opens up about what happened after her Oscar win. Hollywood kept offering her more parts as an enslaved woman, pushing the same stereotype again and again.
Yes, we are paying attention and we don't want you here. www.opb.org/article/2025...
Please… Pass this on…
Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?
America - land of the free, if you're rich. In fact it is so free, if you're rich, there are no rules for thee.
Forests are more than just wood and are important for the water balance. The groundwater beneath a forest is clean, oxygen-rich and excellent for producing drinking water. That is why forests are particularly often also water protection areas. 💚🌿☘️🌱🌲🌳🍀💚
His "concept" of a Healthcare Plan is finally revealed. It involves eliminating the Insurance Industry & people purchasing their OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE. Unrelated, note his obsessive envy of Obama, historically rated 1 of our finest presidents, who he still believes was born in Kenya.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
They're about to shut down the government to protect the Epstein Files from disclosure. Whatever is in the files must be so unhinged as to be beyond imagination.
When we say forests store carbon, we mean FORESTS. Not just trees. Carbon cycles keep the soil healthy, and leaving old growth trees keeps the forest cooler, wetter, and is one of the best climate solutions available to us. A fascinating (if frustrating) read:
