The radical leftists and antifa protesting this weekend have a “No Kings” flag they’ll be waving. I’m posting it here so you can identify them and stay safe.
Late afternoon today we reached 60 ratifications for the Global Ocean Treaty. It will now enter into force - the formal law of the world’s high seas to protect biodiversity and pave the way towards a global network of ocean sanctuaries. Such an amazing win in an otherwise shadowy time!
Why do people keep saying that the U.S. military strike on a Venezuelan boat occurred in “international waters”? There are no international waters anywhere near Venezuela. Trump did this (if in fact that narrative is true) in sovereign waters of a Caribbean state, possibly even Venezuela itself.
@rosie.com called Lady Marmalade “King Joffrey with a tangerine spray tan” and she ain’t wrong.
The EPA is openly promoting a bill that will reduce your tax credits, pollute your air, and turn your oceans and national parks into oil fields and mines.
The United States is now officially a high school “mean girl”. This is an actual post made by The White House facebook account.
Trump is bypassing the United Nations to advance U.S. ambitions to launch deep sea mining in U.S. and international waters. Let’s keep up pressure on world leaders to stand together on the side of ocean protection, not ocean exploitation. Sign the petition bit.ly/4c1MCVA #StopDeepSeaMining

There seems to be some unclarity around January 6th, Trump’s pardons, and which party actually “backs the blue”. Make your decision from these photos.
Black, Latino, Women and even some gay voters were amongst Trump’s supporters. What were you thinking was going to happen?
Here’s United Airlines offering me a $12.8K “deal” to upgrade to a status that I was around $3K in flights from earning but didn’t think it was worth disrupting my holidays for. Who would do this???
Biden going out on super high notes. Chuckwalla National Monument! www.doi.gov/pressrelease...
President Biden takes action to rename the Pacific Islands Heritage Marine National Monument and recognize the Hui Panalāʻau, acknowledging the historical & cultural significance that Indigenous Pacific Islanders share with this special place.
He’s not even in office yet and he’s pissing off everyone. Germany, France, Denmark, Mexico, Panama and now Colombia shouldn’t be having to tell a not quite yet U.S. president to check himself.
