When it comes to the #ClimateCrisis, I think it's time to admit that Civility is Highly Overrated. We are in the middle of the Sixth Mass Extinction Mi'kma'ki Nova Scotia

Centuries-old trees are planetary anchors. They store carbon, shelter millions of species, and hold our soil in place. Reducing them to ash for short-term profit is not developmentβ€”it's ecocide. #StopDeforestation #ClimateCrisis

As well as the unconscionable loss of life, the illegal attack on #Iran by Trump and Netanyahu has devastating consequences for the environment, with global consequences in the #ClimateCrisis.

Meet Three Congressional Candidates Taking on AIPAC AIPAC’s United Democracy Project Super PAC is spending heavily in election races, but these pro-Palestinian candidates in Dem primaries say voters have had enough of the group's pro-Israel mission.

Many voters still don't understand what AIPAC stands for. Education is a scarce resource these days.

With their 'religious freedom' rants Pierre Poilievre's Conservative Taliban Party attempts to embed Jesus top to bottom into Canadian politics and government. Christian extremists are a political arm of the CPC, rallying against abortion, gays etc to force their intolerant brand of Jesus on Canada.

JD Vance: "β€ŠIf you're worried about the world spinning out of control, if you're worried about a military draft, if you're worried about, God forbid, a world war, the best way to prevent it is to vote for Trump."

This is some North Korea level propaganda.

Why Isn’t Trump (Even) Less Popular? There are two reasons.

Trump's got about 39% support right now. How is that possible?

two things:
1. fascism has a constituency
2. partisanship is powerful

I talk about both at some length here. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/why-isnt-t...

My favorite part of Houston's announcement was when he said resource extraction companies are going to come here, set up shop & spend money (before they destroy our environment & hide in tax havens). While ignoring that people who already live, work & spend money here are losing their livelihood.

He said excursion, not incursion, because he misread what the speech writer put in front of him & these sycophants feel the need to normalize the mistake.
Also, does Trump get royalties every time one of his cult members gets a treatment from the resident Mar-a-Lago cosmetic surgeon?

The oil companies are lying again

My latest newsletter: the deadline for a deal between Ottawa and Alberta on industrial carbon pricing is just weeks away. The oil and gas companies and their political proxies are already trying to tilt the table in their direction β€” and fudge the facts.

It's so bad that we've reached a point where members of Congress casually discuss stripping citizenship from and deporting people because they don't like their views.

On my regular morning walk I quite often see a city truck parked at Alderney Landing while the driver picks up trash from several locations around the park. They leave the truck idling. When I ask if they've ever been told not to idle, the answer is always no. On the + side they do have 1 EV pickup

I mostly see our parks and rec department driving around in big trucks like f350s with empty beds.

Meanwhile there’s a 14 year old in my neighbourhood who tows an electric lawnmower and more gardening tools than I’ve ever seen in a parks truck behind their e-bike for their summer job.

Early Iran strikes cost $5.6 billion in munitions, Pentagon estimates The figure, accounting for the war’s first two days, is likely to intensify concerns in Congress that U.S. forces are churning through a scarce supply of advanced weaponry.

The Pentagon calculated it was spending $1 billion a day on Trump and Netanyahu’s war. The truth? It was $3 billion…and that’s just for munitions.

Plus they’ve alarmed everyone by burning through scarce munitions in a matter of days.

Fortune: Oil over $100, markets in freefall, and Iran’s new Supreme Leader is Trump’s worst case scenario.

Opinion | There are two winners in Iran. Neither one is America. Oil disruption benefits Russia, as does less U.S. aid for Ukraine. And Iran distracts from China.

Zelensky said more Patriots were used in 3 days fighting Iran than used by Ukraine since 2022. Imagine how much Ukrainian energy infrastructureβ€”and how many Ukrainian civiliansβ€”might have survived the winter if Trump had sent more Patriots to Ukraine rather than to a β€œwar of whim.” wapo.st/4ui9QzJ

Top DOJ Official Todd Blanche Shut Down Crypto Enforcement While Holding Crypto Assets The second-highest official at the DOJ, Todd Blanche rose to prominence as Trump’s personal defense attorney. His actions violated the federal conflicts of interest law and his ethics agreement,…

Deputy AG Todd Blanche promised to dump his crypto holdings no later than 90 days after his Senate confirmation last March.

But about a month into the job β€” before divesting β€” he ordered an end to investigations into crypto companies.
