Something that I think is important to stress about this comment is that we are still very much interested in learning about, for example, how much fossil fueled climate change influenced an event. BUT.. we are starting from the assumption that there is influence to some extent. Period.

In a new paper in Nature Climate Action, we joined a group of experts to argue for a significant normative shift in climate science, focusing on how humans have altered the Earth’s climate system, regardless of what Big Oil and the Trump admin argue. Learn more: https://act.ucs.org/4dJq6De

This beauty appeared to be spyhopping in my garden yesterday. She is on lizard patrol. Yay! More of my catapillers will survive.

The heat index is 103 degrees, so I decided it was a good time to re-pot the giant milkweed. Found this catapiller🌱 happily munching away. We have a resident population of Monarchs that don't migrate to Mexico. 🌱

My city is already making plans to cut back services and personnel. Under the Republicans, cities have been systematically stripped of their powers to make decisions for their residents.

Social Security has been America’s most effective anti-poverty program since 1935. Last year, it lifted 23.5 million people out of poverty, including 16.5 million seniors. Remember this when Republican leaders suggest raising the retirement age or cutting your benefits.

NEVER FORGET on the 91st Anniversary of Social Security: Howard Lutnick said that seniors won't care if they don't get their Social Security checks & anyone who complained is a fraudster. As someone on SSDI if I didn't get my check I WOULD BE LIVID! It's my ONLY income.🤬

They have my support. Facts over lies and propaganda.

Thomson Reuters, which owns news agency Reuters, has signed a $125M deal giving ICE access to its databases of personal data. USA Today has partnered with Palantir to gain "actionable intelligence" on its audiences. The media should be opponents of Trump's police state — not collaborators.

ICE entered a small Maine town searching for someone with a removal order. Instead, an officer killed 26-year-old Joan Sebastian Guerrero—who officials admit was not the target. With no body-camera footage, furious protesters are demanding the truth. #Biddeford #ICE #Justice

He was not the person they had come to arrest. Minutes later…

Sir, you are ruining my day. Sorry, that's my frustration talking. To be truthful, I don't believe in killing the messenger. As a taxpayer, I don't feel rich enough to fund all this waste, fraud, and abuse.

Gas prices are up 24.6% from a year ago and still significantly higher than they were before the Iran War. Meanwhile, the world's 8 biggest oil companies have made a $93B profit windfall in just the last three months. Big Oil is raking it in as the world burns — and we're paying for it.
