The FBI has ADMITTED it has the Epstein Files redaction TRAINING VIDEOS that an anonymous FBI source told me about last year. TODD BLANCHE was required to release these under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. TODD BLANCHE is unfit to serve as Attorney General. VOTE NO. @judiciarydems.senate.gov

Katie Phang on Todd Blanche's meeting with Epstein survivors: "If you can imagine being the victim of this type of horrific child sex abuse, and then in your mind the brass ring is 'Let me sit down with the top cop of our country to be heard,' and to have him be such a dismissive asshole."

Spokane, Washington. In 2024 governments gave $725,000,000,000 of taxpayer money directly to the fossil fuel industry. We’ve PAID to inflict these horrors on our world. Our children are going to pay a great deal more. We are nowhere near angry enough.🤬🤬🤬 Climate Dad

A very powerful message from an Epstein survivor for us to consider as we approach Todd Blanche's confirmation vote.

The reasons for the Senate Judiciary Committee’s postponement of a vote on Todd lanche’s nomination for Attorney General help explain why all senators, regardless of party affiliation, should reject the nomination. #BlockBlanche www.theusconstitution.org/news/cac-rel...

You can't make this up: the Trump administration is arguing in court that even a cancer diagnosis isn't enough to claim an exemption from his draconian new Medicaid work requirements. Sickening — and all to fund even more tax cuts for the ultra-rich.

A record 61% of Americans disapprove of the Supreme Court — and it's easy to see why. Clarence Thomas has sat on the bench for 34 years. The MAGA majority keeps caving to Trump. There's still no binding code of ethics. We need real reform: term limits, binding ethics, and expansion.

People think "Hollywood" is rich and famous. The reality? Film and TV is a national industry. It's a blue collar industry. And it is an industry free fall. My latest for @newrepublic.com on how the Paramount merger would crush blue collar workers who can not afford it newrepublic.com/article/2136...

📣 Our new report finds that the Trump admin’s energy + AI “dominance” policies + hostility to renewables will make it even harder for working families to afford their energy bills. Thanks to Trump, the wholesale price of fossil gas could DOUBLE over the next decade, outpacing inflation every year.

The Paramount Warners merger is not only hitting a wall of opposition in the US We @democracydefendersfund.org have also filed a complaint in the UK, which has said it is "minded to act" Stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Alan Cumming & Benedict Wong urge that the UK do so @theguardian.com

#ClimateChange is ridiculously expensive! — more so than phasing out fossil fuels. A new study says that NY State will surpass half a trillion dollars on infrastructure spending related to climate change by 2050. Now this is just one state. And one type of cost! www.nytimes.com/2026/07/23/n...

If you are a @theguardian.com reader you wouldn’t know that the largest ever gathering of trans people in history yesterday was protesting against the Burnham government’s transphobic hate-policies. It had an article about making an omelette though.

150,000 marched yesterday in London for trans rights. Opened the Sky News app. Scrolled and scrolled. Nothing. BBC News app. Nothing. Guardian app. Nothing. This is what actual silencing looks like.

Ballou: Based on reporting, Larry and David Ellison, talked about transforming CNN and potentially even firing anchors the president didn’t like. Once that happened, the regulatory barriers melted away. When you’re talking about giving a private benefit in exchange for a public act, that’s bribery.

Once againc all of this is wildly illegal under the WTO & multiple other signed, ratified preferential trade agreements. And once again, journalists have decided that including that information in their articles is not news. It’s maddening. Perhaps even more so than the actual authoritarianism now.

Please make a call to your 2 US Senators to oppose the massive amount of military spending—1.2 T—Repubs are trying to pass in the NDAA & their “reconciliation 3.0” bill. Both bills also contain elements of the SAVE Act. And the NDAA has Section 1217, which would deepen our ties with Israel.

Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...
