The coolest thing about solar energy is that you don't need to invade another country to go get it. GREENPEACE

April 22, 2026 Virginia voters yesterday agreed to a constitutional amendment that would temporarily redistrict the state if any other state redistricted for partisan reasons: that is, in retaliation for the partisa...

“This pattern—expecting Republicans to behave wildly and cheat to grab power while expecting Democrats to behave according to the rules of normal times—has been going on now for years, and it is a dynamic that reflects the political patterns of the years before the Civil War.”

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.

Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.

You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.

AOC represents EVERY WOMAN in America right now who is sick and tired of misogyny & misinformation.

She represents us and the rage we feel.

A detailed, symbolic painting inspired by the movie "Pulp Fiction," featuring Samuel L. Jackson's character depicted as a Jesus-like figure with a glowing halo and radiant hands, blessing a sick man lying in a hospital bed. Surrounding them are other characters from the film—John Travolta and Uma Thurman—both praying, and a nurse and another man watching solemnly. Above, three cherubic angels with the faces of other "Pulp Fiction" characters float in the sky. The background includes iconic American symbols such as the U.S. Capitol, the Statue of Liberty, an American flag, flying bald eagles, military jets, and fireworks, blending religious imagery with patriotic and cinematic elements.

This is great! 😂

Why Climate Goals Aren’t a Lost Cause—Even If We Overshoot Them Earth will likely warm by more than 1.5 degrees Celsius, but we can’t give up on trying to get temperatures back down

Overshooting 1.5°C looks likely—but it’s not game over. The key is limiting how far (and how long) we exceed it, then bringing temperatures back down with rapid cuts + carbon removal. Every fraction of a degree still matters.

ICE has to be dismantled
And guilty ICE personnel should be prosecuted.

I pronounce the argument that Americans need guns to protect us from a tyrannical government officially dead. Kaput. We're living under a tyrannical government and the only people suffering from gun violence are innocent children and civilians. No one's using them against this government.

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

“Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.”

Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."
