It always amazes me when I see people believing that we somehow represent the creator’s best, most advanced work. It’s not a huge leap of imagination to entertain the existence of much more evolved, and advanced, beings. They may be as likely to contact us as we are likely to speak to Protozoa.

I cannot even begin to say how wrong this is. Barton has conned his way to $ and FOX relevance with egregious fabrications. The comforting lies he sells are one part of the foundation for the Christian nationalist, nativist evil.

David Barton is a fake historian who wrote a book on Thomas Jefferson that was so inaccurate his publisher was forced to pull it from the shelves. Now Barton, and his son Tim, are advising Trump on his anti-Smithsonian crusade.

The fact is that nuclear power is being sold to the public as a solution. It is a way for the wealthy to maintain power. Distributed solar, wind, geothermal and other forms of energy coupled with batteries are egalitarian. The nuclear industry is a scam. It never adds in the costs for nuclear waste.

Do we need nuclear power for a successful energy transition?

The experts Jeanne Rubner and Claudia Kemfert explain their views of the role that nuclear power should play in climate change mitigation.

There is a cancer being fed in our body politic. The mindless scourges of racism and nativism are once again being introduced as solutions to our greed and mean spiritedness.

Would assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

I hate Boris E so much I cannot even begin to say. His pravda- esque garbage was on constantly via our local Sinclair propaganda channel.

@coalminephoenix.bsky.social · last wk.

Sinclair eventually dropped Trump-world insider Boris E. but they still chose the “must-run” decision, and with most Trump aligned organizations, just because they back off, doesn’t mean they won’t move forward in a less obvious way. www.mediamatters.org/boris-epshte...
