Colorado faces limited water supply after record-low snowpack As of March 25, averaged across 115 stations in Colorado’s mountains, the snow water equivalent was just 38% of the 1991-2020 average. This represents the lowest snowpack in more than 40 years – and p...

"We look ahead to March & April as the time when big storms are possible and the deficits can be made up. Unfortunately, this year has been just the opposite: Instead of much-needed snowstorms, we’re in an unprecedented March heat wave that is accelerating the melting of what little snow is there."

The American people have a right to know what's going on.

What you're watching, in real time, is a madman starting a world war for the sole purpose of finding a way to stay in power.

I always said Donald Trump would make the world burn if he could benefit from it.

Here we are.

If the estimates were right, there were about 9 million people at No Kings rallies today.

That would mean this protest was THIRTY TIMES AS LARGE AS THE TEA PARTY PROTEST which we were told, over and over again, was a massively important sign that US politics had shifted dramatically to the right

Today’s record setting #NoKings turnout got *everyone’s* attention. It was too big to ignore, although some will try!

Pentagon prepares for weeks of ground operations in Iran If President Trump approves the plans, such an effort would mark a new phase of the war that could be significantly more dangerous to U.S. troops than the first four weeks.

This is going to be such a fucking disaster, and it's for absolutely *nothing*

WOW, Seattle!…

This is why I constantly recommend people attend a No Kings protest. It will invigorate you immensely. The vibes are excellent.

Big crowds in Portland today, and the message couldn’t be clearer:

Working people built this country — and we don't stay silent when our communities are under pressure.

This is people power.
#NoKings

When trump and his sycophants, are out of power, we demand accountability for his many crimes.

Screenshot of headline reading: Trump signs executive order asking federal contractors to eliminate DEI.

Trump is continuing his cruel campaign of contempt against communities of color—a campaign that undermines efforts to combat historic discrimination. This is unacceptable and must end now. I will continue to hold this Administration accountable.

Oh dear looks like climate change doesn’t go well with LNG supply

Climate change has closed the West coast of Australia at the same time as the Strait of Hormuz closure.

If you want an economy don’t buy gas.

They’re just going to end up having to shut the airports down.

Good luck, spring break travelers.

Watch this: Well over 1500 heat records smashed over the last week across the US. Likely the most deviant US #heatwave in memory. (There are many more, these are just the records tracked by CoolWx)

Another day, more scorching heat, this time in Texas. Warmest March day on record. Texas, NM, OK, AR etc burned up yesterday. 105 in Oklahoma, in March.
This marks the swan song of the most unusual #heatwave the US has experienced in recent history.

Thread with more info about Meir Kahane, the Kahanist movement, and its influence related to the Iran War:

The suspect planned to assassinate this pro-Palestinian advocate by firebombing her home.

He is a member of a branch of the “Jewish Defense League,” a Zionist Jewish supremacist group designated in both the US and Israel as a terrorist organization.

The JDL was founded by the late Meir Kahane.

Mike Johnson is off his rocker. No Democrat is talking about opening the border “wide open”.

He’s clowning for Trump.

BREAKING OVERNIGHT: By unanimous consent, the Senate voted to fund most of DHS in a bid to end the partial shutdown.

The bill restores pay for TSA, but excludes ICE funding.

📌 It’s not over just yet. It heads to the House, then Trump has to sign. TSA misses one more paycheck today.

Why? This doesn’t make any sense. People are using a locked stall. What is the issue?
