Gov. Tim Walz posted to social media that he spoke to the White House after the shooting, and that “Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
If the standard is "there are indictments so we can kidnap world leaders" then why would the Trump administration stop at Maduro?
Why not invade Russia and drag Putin out? Attack North Korea and grab Kim Jong Un? Or indict and get Xi?
This is of course nonsense. Trump's actions are clearly illegal
⚠️ When “technology will save us” becomes a climate risk!
A new paper from great colleagues takes a careful look at techno-optimism — the belief that technology will largely solve climate change — and what it means for real-world climate action.

from “student debt forgiveness is tyranny” to “the president is allowed to point at someone and have them summarily executed on the spot” in 2 years
at least he didn't do something truly reckless like try to forgive student loans
My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:
“Health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has taken the extraordinary step of firing the expert panel that advises the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, saying the action is needed to restore faith in vaccines.” www.statnews.com/2025/06/09/r...
This is not the actual cover of Nature, just shown here for illustrative purposes. We did submit this figure for consideration for their cover. Print run in two weeks, we'll know by then if it gets used.
Out today in Nature, our paper on the drivers of the record 2023 summer heating of the North Atlantic. Temperatures warmed to record levels in just a few months. The impacts on climate & ecosystems were severe. A thread on how this work came about and what we found.👇👇🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."
Must-read @thebulletin.org article by Eric Morgan & Ralph Keeling: The Keeling curve, which has continuously tracked atmospheric CO2 levels for *67* years, has always been vulnerable to funding ebbs and flows—but under Trump II, is facing its most dire threat yet

THE DENVER NUGGETS ON DAVID GBORIE'S BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!
President Trump's first 100 days unleashed an "all-out assault" on the environment that could take a generation or more to repair.
“It is not an overstatement to say that the Trump administration has launched the worst White House assault in history on the environment and public health."
Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”
The 2026 budget passback plan calls for eliminating NOAA Research, the scientific backbone that keeps weather forecasts, alerts, and warnings accurate and effective. This would have disastrous consequences.

“we will work to stop something that isn’t happening and then take a victory lap because the thing that wasn’t happening still isn’t”
“Woke policies” aka CLIMATE CHANGE.
Of all the problems in the US, not producing and burning enough fossil fuels ain't one.
Gotta bring in a GM who understands Serbian tariff math.
Hands off our healthcare!
Hands off our public education!
Hands off our jobs!
Hands off my 401k!
Hands off my neighbor who has committed no crime!
Hands off those Congressional seats that we are coming for in 2026!
Coca-Cola plastic waste in oceans expected to reach 602m kilograms a year by 2030

I titled this piece “A Betrayal,” and I stand by it, but there was more at work here than cravenness. There was also strategic haplessness, though the latter surely stems in part from the former. Let me explain. www.offmessage.net/p/a-betrayal
Fog and trees are a great combination

I have so much respect, admiration, and gratitude for the women who fought to obtain the rights that we now have today. Our lives would be very different without their hard work and sacrifice. I’m hopeful we’ll get to a place of true equality, but for now, LET’S GO, GIRLS 📣 ✊🏼

In 2023, I hiked the entirety of the Colorado Trail. It took me 35 days and I climbed 30 mountains along the way. It was a transformative experience for me, and I'm in the process of finalizing a book which encapsulates it. This moment from the Trail was one of the most special of them all...
Trump pardoned Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, who was sentenced to life in prison for running an online platform where drug dealers conducted more than $200 million in illegal drug sales.
He doesn't care about Fentanyl.
