I’m old enough to remember when, in 2024, Donald Trump gathered oil execs at Mar-a-Lago for a quid pro quo. A $1 billion campaign donation to put Trump back in the White House, for a powerful ROI. Promises made, promises delivered at Americans' expense. Gift ♾: www.nytimes.com/2025/07/30/c...

Candidate Trump Promised Oil Executives a Windfall. Now, They’re Getting It. (Gift Article)

New tallies of the administration’s tax breaks and other incentives add up to tens of billions of dollars of benefits to the fossil fuel industry.

The Trump admin has shut down & bought off clean-energy projects. Now, it’s stripping protections from acres of public land held sacred by Tribal nations, opening the door to drilling, mining & more. They are prioritizing corporate interests at the expense of our climate & Tribes. zurl.co/ozRgS

Trump dramatically cuts size of two national monuments held sacred by tribes

Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante in Utah will lose ‘close to a million and a half acres each’ and open land to developers and oil industry

James Talarico: Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was murdered by ICE. He wasn't their intended target. But he looked like their intended target. Lorenzo was a child of God, endowed with infinite worth. His life was invaluable. His death was senseless. Our neighbor, our fellow Texan, deserves justice.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was murdered by ICE. His three sons called him “El mundo entero” — the whole world. They watched as their whole world died in a video posted on Facebook. Lorenzo was our neighbor and fellow Texan. He deserves justice.
