Oh damn it: It’s official, America is the world’s worst and most corrupt warmonger.

Per Trump and Hegseth:

The new American policy is to educate all military in all aspects of starting wars, supplying war armaments, bribing war industrialists, executing wars, and hiding war crimes.

Eco-fascism unveiled: Ethnonationalist and authoritarian responses to climate change - The Academic What knowledge about eco-fascism and far-right political ecology is necessary for knowing where it comes from, how it has evolved, and how best to combat it?

Covering sessions daily at the Commission on the Status of Women this week, one question keeps coming up for me:
How can responsible media better amplify the institutions trying to address global crises?
Too often we are not meeting the moment β€” we are being entertained by it.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus & @DrTed...β€’ 6h
Global military expenditure just hit $2.7 trillion - in a single year.
According to @UN estimates, ending world hunger by 2030 would require $93 billion annually.
That means we spend almost 30 times more every year on killing each other than on making sure everyone eats.

This is Director of WHO. And that’s exactly the point I’m trying to make all day every day this week.

TN is not a good place for women. Neither is Idaho or Texas or Oklahoma. Might as well be in Afghanistan.

β€œThese are the so-called β€˜violent protesters’ authorities claimed made law enforcement fear for their lives.”

Moments later, Vermont State Police, working alongside ICE, deployed tear gas and flash grenades against the crowd.

ICE detainee in Arizona dies after not receiving medical attention for severe tooth pain Emmanuel Damas, a Haitian asylum seeker, was being held at the Florence correctional center before he died

A Haitian asylum seeker detained by ICE died after being refused timely medical attention for a severe toothache.

At least 40 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office β€” a two-decade high.

The monstrous cruelty of Trump's police state knows no bounds.

The numbers are shifting, but let’s be honest. A huge chunk of CA voters still have no idea who most of these candidates are.

That 24% undecided is the real story. It could flip this race overnight.

Dems stuck in single digits are not expanding the field, they’re diluting it and need to drop out.

Cyberdumps are hideous but unfortunately those flush door handles are a real problem on other vehicles too. Our Hyundai EV also has them. Hopefully we won't become BBQ too.

I asked President Trump about the FBI reportedly seizing election records in Arizona. He said they must have done that because it was a β€œrigged” election. I pointed out to him that his own AG said there was not measurable voter fraud to overturn that election. Then he called me a rotten reporter.

To the "I didn't vote for this" folks. You voted for a convicted felon. A twice-impeached president. A man found liable for sexual abuse, who tried to overthrow an election. And now gas prices are surging, we're at war, and soldiers are coming home in coffins. This is what you voted for. All of it.
