Robert's Right ✅️.......

Yet another entrenched authoritarian defeated yesterday in Serbia. As the United States approaches a critical midterm election, Serbia shows that we can win despite uphill authoritarian conditions. It can be done. It takes all of us, especially young people. Timothy Snyder

Court rules firing of Maureen Comey without cause or due process violated the law. The president’s duty is to execute the law “faithfully.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Lula Goes HARD

Ossoff: “Trump begged Putin for diesel. Meanwhile, the White House is brokering the sale of billions in Russian energy assets to people who fund the Trump family and campaign. Oil fields, refineries, and gas stations worldwide are being sold to Trump cronies in a deal backed by the US government.”

Would you look at that, Marisa Kabas found out who this "Tommy" is! bsky.app/profile/mari...

who is this 💀

Zelensky on bombing the Russian data centers: “It’s pretty clear where the bots were coming from.”

Nepal has lost about a quarter of its glacier area since 1977. 163 glaciers gone completely. Glacial lakes up from 606 to more than 1,500. This week a piece of one came down a mountain. 353 dead, 1,300+ missing. Per capita GHG: US 17 t, Nepal 2 t. On the UN's LDC list since 1971.

Anyone noticing AI sloppy user interfaces in important apps lately? What is going on with airline apps? Nothing is intuitive and it takes forever to get new info if a flight is rebooked due to cancelation.

Real American heroes

Climate change is real. Rain bomb in Hells Canyon. No injuries.

With each passing day, I'm liking Jon Ossoff more and more. I think he may be the real deal.

At this point, solving climate change is cheaper than not solving it -- not only on some grand 50 year time horizon, but tomorrow, today, immediately. Soving climate change *is* affordability. Maybe Dems should tell voters about that.

You mean to tell me government can use common sense regulation for the common good (and to safeguard the future of the planet)? I wonder what that’s like (I live in the US of A). www.pveurope.eu/e-mobility/f...

Europe is saving €100M a day by investing in solar as the Iran war drives up prices. Countries are doubling down on renewables to keep bills lower & strengthen energy independence. Meanwhile the US is paying companies to stop clean energy projects. This isn’t about technology. It’s about choices.

Republicans want to give the fossil fuel industry a free pass with legislation that guarantees they can’t be sued. Utah has already passed this law. The industry knew years ago the effects of spewing CO2 and methane into the atmosphere, and they lied about it. MAKE THEM PAY.

In case you missed it ... Scotland is a green-power giant that would be welcomed into the EU with open arms! #RejoinEU 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺

Can we bring back this law? Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA): Post-Watergate, the 1974 amendments to FECA, signed by Gerald Ford and later amended by Carter in 1979, created a voluntary public financing system for presidential elections to reduce special interest influence.

We will be taxing the ultra-wealthy and global elites.

In honor of Hungary’s victory, I made palacsinta for the first time ever. 🇭🇺

Will Hungary accept people from the US as immigrants? If we don’t do what they did in Nov of 2026, I want to fast forward to happiness there.

I wonder how much money The Heritage foundation, Turning Point USA, & the rump family are going to loose overnight now that Orban isn’t funneling 💰 anymore. Let the dark money prosecutions begin. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Monsters. This administration is committing war crimes against civilians. No water, my God. m.youtube.com/watch?v=LoP0...

Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Every American needs to watch this:

Abolish ICE is not enough. Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough. We need prosecutions and trials. Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Democrats needing to message on affordability as the country endures a brutal authoritarian takeover is tragic. Take it from someone who lives in occupied Minneapolis. Our problems go deeper than prices.

Trump’s America.

Nothing ever changes. #epsteinfiles From the book Wake, by Rebecca Hall. Captains log on slave ships. Rape the women and the boys to keep the crew “entertained”.

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

On a positive note, right wing Christian Nationalist anti LBGTQ+ and Muslim hater Bryan Fischer of Focal Point fame on American Family Radio, died in October. His hateful anti-Jesus voice is now silent. The world is a better place without his hate.

Tonight was a very bad night.

It’s unconscionable that congress and the President do nothing and continue to be paid, while the government workers who keep us safe and people who need food assistance are literally cut off completely.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

I wrote about why the regrettable conclusions of Ezra Klein pissed me off so badly in the last couple weeks. On moral cowardice in an era that calls for clarity, and a popular political instinct to try to solve divisions of abuse by ignoring causes. www.the-reframe.com/eventually-y...

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries. He said this out loud.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Molly breaks it down brilliantly & this is why I listen to her Fast Politics podcast.

The Writers Guild of America on the removal of Jimmy. “As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world."

Just so everyone can follow along: The MAGA beef against @karenattiah.bsky.social is that she said Kirk said this:

“How you die does not redeem how you lived.”
