All the folks who contend we do not need to directly challenge the entrenched power of the fossil fuel industry—and that we can accommodate their policy priorities (e.g., federal “permitting reform”)—are either lying or deluding themselves that this is an effective climate strategy.

Who You Hire Has Consequences — Here’s the Proof Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans are vigorously working to pass the “big beautiful bill,” whose contents will have an “ugly” impact on millions of Americans.

We lose opportunities to explore ancient wisdom when we defund education and ban books. Greek mythology, with stories like the Trojan Horse, teach lessons that stand the test of time. Did anyone leading the Pentagon read about the Trojan War in school? #EducationMatters
