And finally, Tom Llamas insults every viewer by announcing the cause of the LA wildfires was downed power lines. What about the NY Eve arsonist, Tom? You devoted hours to his guilt and then a jury refused to convict. #Exxon and its oil drenched pals are the cause of the wildfire.

What did you do when you knew? Climate action is your duty.
Another bad night for @NBCNews. This time, they do 15% of the broadcast on #climate chaos but don't connect the dots. Here, they announce the guilt of a man alleged to have started massive wildfires but even the wife says "I can't believe one man alone could do this." She's right. It took all of us.
According to the fools @nbcnews.com, this fellow is guilty of stalking Don Gonzo. But if you look at his resume, he's just like the January 6th criminals who Don invited to line up for our taxpayer dollars. Make up your mind!
We share one atmosphere and one fate. What happens there ends up here.
Yet another in a long stream of Hall of Shame moments for @nbcnewspr.bsky.social and the kid anchor. Another 3 minutes to open the broadcast on the chaos out west with wildfires destroying everything. Those communities will never recover, Tom. Connect the darn #climate dots ... you toad
We are connected by one atmosphere. What happens there, happens here and vice versa. Our failure to act on #climate is shameful. The heat is on. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Once again, @nbcnews.com devotes more than 20% of the evening national broadcast to climate catastrophes around the globe. Yet they still fail to connect the dots and wouldn't dream of saying #climatechange
Once again, @nbcnews.com devotes more than 15% of its nightly broadcast to #climate catastrophes around the world. They even describe it as a worldwide problem, but these cowards won't say #globalwarming. I feel sorry for anyone looking to be informed about the why. #Actonclimate
Holiday in the climate emergency. No that’s not AI or edited, just a snapshot I just took with my phone on Lacanau beach in France. What future will this boy grow up in? It is in our hands, but time is running out.
The vision of my climate friend, Adam McKay. Please sign & share!
YellowDot released this letter today calling for disaster preparedness for the heat jump this El Niño will bring. It’s signed by scientists, meteorologists, climate writers, concerned citizens & was sent to every Governor, major city Mayor, international Mayors. Sign + share if you can.
We are sitting here in Iowa in the middle of the corn sweat heat. Third heat dome in a month. Right now, at midnight on my porch this is the temperature and humidity. Although the DSM airports had it at 88%. This is the climate future
Ever hear of Corn Sweat!? It’s a real thing! In the #Midwest today heat index values reached 120 to near 130°F! Temps near 100°, dewpoints over 80°! The corn and irrigation “sweats” - releases water vapor into the air through evapotranspiration… 1/
How do you sleep when your bed is burning? A glimpse into the #climate future. It only grows worse from here.
Every night for the past 4 months @NBCNightlyNews has opened with #climate chaos stories. Tonight it was four full minutes. They hype the drama, and pull on the heartstrings, but they never explain the why. They won't go near a discussion of climate change. We can handle the truth, Tom
Guess what? That #climate denier Governor Abbott of Tx credits the lower death count 378 days after Camp Mystic tragedy to being "prepared for what comes next." Hey Greg, why don't you #actonclimate and get the whole state ready to go? You're going to get hit again, buddy.
The best cyclist alive just called for moving bike racing out of summer entirely. Not an activist, the guy in the yellow jersey. This week they cut a mountain stage short under a red heat alert - 30km gone, because it was too hot to safely race. #tourdefrance #climatechanve
Our collective failure to #ActonClimate will come with hard choices. We saw it in the L.A. wildfires. What house do you defend, and what house has to go? How is the water to be rationed to fight fires, when we need it for life itself? These choices grow more difficult the longer we delay action.
Thank you Chris. Telling it like it is.
Guadalupe at Comfort went 5 ft to 37 ft in about three hours this morning. Major flood stage is 28. Same river that killed 139 people last July 4th. A thousand-year flood is 0.1% odds in any given year. Not a countdown. Twice in twelve months isn't a miracle. It's a broken assumption. #floods
Previous recommendations not to talk about climate change were mostly based on research that didn’t directly test the thing in question: a candidate prioritizing vs not prioritizing climate. New research shows prioritizing climate can have positive effects. www.2035initiative.com/climate-hush...
Bold move, NZ. Your betrayal of the Climate future now enshrined in your laws. Enjoy your existence in the era of rising seas and temps.
A proposed bill in New Zealand is designed to limit who can sue for climate change-related damages and centralize oversight with the government. A similar bill in the U.S. has not seen widespread support but could be adopted by individual states. www.forbes.com/sites/jonmcg...
That's not cloud cover. That dot is the sun. Smoke from 800+ wildfires in Canada is riding a ridge into the eastern US. Climate change made that fire weather twice as likely and 50% more intense. We burn fossil fuels. The forests burn. #ClimateChange #Wildfires #smoke
Did you hear the Ka-ching of the Trump bank account today? Congrats to E. Jean C for sticking to it and lighting Trump's crypto profits by 5.6 million. My post here: open.substack.com/pub/channing...

Donald Trump finally pays his first debt for a lifetime of misogyny—and it only cost him $5.6 million.

As the heat dome builds over the plains, we see the effects of one in the #TourdeFrance. Six of the warmest days ever for the tour have happened this year. That means in the last 9 days. It will only grow worse for future races. Still, NBC won't say #climatechange. Wake up deniers!
Epic rain totals from last week go unreported by central Iowa news outlets. 1-1000-year event, once again. And it will happen again soon. Maybe when the coming heat breaks.
Lindsey Graham's finest moment was calling Gonzo a “jackass”, “a race-baiting bigot” and “the most flawed nominee in the history of the Republican party.” But his own lust for power led him to abandon the truth. A story old as time.
As a kid playing baseball, I saw a dad screaming at an ump through the fence. The crime? He called ball on a pitch thrown by the loudmouth's son. Now Trump is sticking his orange nose where it doesn't belong in the upcoming FIFA match. Typical Gonzo. open.substack.com/pub/channing...

Tom-Lame carries on the new tradition at #NBCnightlynews and bungle first half of each newscast. All they talk is the glossy danger of the record heat, and not the cause. Even poor Britney is required to keep her mouth shut from speaking the truth. Shame on you, NBC
Gonzo is promising a really long speech in 107° heat. I'll take the heat! His little party is already being canceled all over the nation by extreme temps. Your failure to #actonclimate, Don will be your legacy
