Good news! In a blow to Trump's 'drill, baby drill' agenda, zero companies bid for the chance to drill for oil and gas in Alaska's Cook Inlet.
This comes after we notified the Interior Department last month of our intent to sue over the planned unlawful lease sale on March 4.
I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.
From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.
Good news: We won a victory in court to help salmon safely move past dams in the Columbia River Basin.
A federal court in Oregon ordered federal agencies to change operations of the Columbia Basin hydropower system in critical ways to help improve salmon survival.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...
Puerto Ricans have been fighting for energy democracy - the right to control their grid locally and build the clean energy future on the island - for decades. If you want to support an incredible effort, get plugged into the work led by Queremos Sol! queremossolpr.org

They call immigrants criminals as they unleash a crime wave.
They call immigrants rapists as they keep raping people.
They call immigrants invaders as they keep invading communities.
They call immigrants murderers as they keep murdering people.
Bombing another country and kidnapping its leader would also be wrong with Congressional approval. The outrage, and call for impeachment, should be over the evil and illegal outcome not merely the failure to follow the prescribed process.
And there it is:
The Trump administration is opening up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling, again. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/c...

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
