#Australia Conservatives are frighteningly predictable: ignore the science, push to destroy our planet as fast as possible lying about it with disinformation, to make a quick buck for rich fossil fuel donors. Please read, consider donating, and share widely. www.climatecouncil.org.au/actions/end-...

Honestly, if 214 House Republicans won't stand up for girls who could have been your own daughter, sister, or granddaughter, abused by powerful men, what exactly do you stand for? Why are you even in public office?

Paxton won’t agree to debate Talarico, and we all know why. He doesn’t want to answer these questions: “Why did you give an Epstein-style sweetheart deal to an admitted child predator? Why were you impeached… by your own party? Why do you own 15 homes on a government salary?” James Talarico

Congratulations to @1199seiu.org and the nearly 70,000 CDPAP care workers who filed for the largest union election in American history. These workers make it possible for New Yorkers to live safely and independently at home. I’m proud to stand with them in the fight for a union.

History is in the making! Caregivers like Ingeri dedicate their lives to caring for others. Now, CDPAP caregivers across NYS are voting to join the 1199 family, gaining the support, advocacy, and collective power that make the union difference. @nytimes.com article: digital.1199seiu.org/nytcdpap

Phang: We are priming the court every step of the way to show that my war for the entirety of the files is a well-founded one. Because every time they file a response, they keep on making this Keystone Cops move of total incompetence… all they’re doing is showing their asses

The truth is that the world has never experienced an El Nino of anything like this strength, so we really have no idea just how catastrophic its impacts and consequences will be My guess is that the number of casualties will be far higher than this www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Huge El Niño projected to cause 450,000 deaths in next six months

New report predicts a heavy toll from Nigeria to the US – and comes on top of existing impacts of the climate crisis

Just reading up on the city budget (been on vacation). There are a number of strange errors and misconstruals in the Seattle Times' coverage, including a reference ot "Seattle's income tax" (we don't have one) and spending outpacing revenue in a worsening economy (that's not what caused the deficit)

Seattle mayor tries to ‘right the ship’ in her first city budget

The city has faced consistently bleak revenue projections for years, and, as was the case last year, city spending continued to outpace revenue this year.
