The J6 insurrection has now succeeded. It took a few years, but with massive funding from the fossil fuel fascists, and huge assists by the SCOTUS criminals, they have overthrown the legitimate US Federal Government, and installed their fascist regime.
While 5+million people are killed by the burning of fossil fuels each year, and in addition to committing mass murder by pushing climate lies and dismantling protective regulations, our monstrous "president" also wants to allow oil companies to kill polar bear families...
Thank you @velshi.com for discussing the urgent need to address the climate emergency today with Bill McKibben and Sheldon Whitehouse. I was going to skip the No Kings because I didn't see them as caring about the climate emergency, but your guests have convinced me otherwise.
Thank you so much @velshi.com for covering CLIMATE CHANGE tonight with Michael Mann, and not just for a couple of rushed minutes at the end of the hour. It is the #1 issue in the world and the US, simply by death toll alone, and as you said, it must be the 1st issue we tackle when Dems get control.
Sad to see corruption dominate the Olympics. The CAN couple's performance was much better than the USA couple's, while the performance of the Spanish couple was better than both. Big money cheated the USA couple to an undeserved "Silver", while robbing Spain of a medal they rightly deserved :(
This is a mass murderer, using his wealth and position as the president's "Energy Advisor" to force more fossil fuels down our throats when he knows that it's a settled scientific fact that the burning of fossil fuels is killing over 5.1 million people each year and climbing. THAT IS MASS MURDER.
This is a mass murderer, using his position to stop the EPA from protecting the American People from deadly pollution and the ravages of the climate emergency. Environmental deregulation kills people, and he knows it. He's doing it anyway. That is the literal definition of murder.
This is a mass murderer, using his position to help murder the 5.1 million plus people who are killed each year by the burning of fossil fuels. Publicly denying the settled science of the climate emergency and enacting "policy" based on those lies is mass murder....
Happy Birthday to Isaac Newton!!! Born this day in 1643. Giant of Physics (F=ma, a body in motion tends to stay in motion; a body at rest tends to stay at rest, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction), inventor of Calculus... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_N...
The physicist who was gunned down at MIT last week was on the verge of a breakthrough in fusion energy, which would go a long way to helping us dump murderous fossil fuels for good. For those who refuse to believe the fossil fuel industry would have killed him, I found this response online...
Remember how Biden campaigned on "No new drilling!" and how he would "make MBS a pariah"? Then in office he broke both promises in a big way, approving more new drilling than any president in history, and flying to Saudi Arabia to kiss MBS's ass. This is why voters are disgusted and don't show up.
F-22 on the left and F-35 on the right. Notice how the F-22 is ahead of the F-35, which is, apropos even if coincidental, since the F-22 is a better, more advanced fighter plane. F-22 is the best air-to-air fighter jet in the world today. Not even the US Navy has them - only the US Air Force.
So sad to hear that June Lockhart, Mother to Judy, Penny and Will on Lost In Space, and the Mom on Lassie, died on October 23rd. It's hard to believe she was 100 years old too! boy how time flies. We will miss you and remember you fondly Maureen Robinson.
In remembering Dick Cheney, it's important we never forget what a cruel, evil, murderous man he was, needlessly killing defenseless, innocent animals, pushing murderous fossil fuels and fighting against life-saving climate action. Far too many innocents died at his hands. Good riddance...
Yaaayyyy!!! We FINALLY get our hour back! Daylight time is like hitting yourself in the head all Summer, just because it feels so good when you finally stop in the Fall!!!!
We could at least think about the poor kids who have to wait till it gets dark to Trick-or-treat, having to wait an extra hour because we're still on stupid DST. At least end DST and switch back to real time BEFORE Halloween! Have a heart! Think of the kids!
