“Gustavo” is harvesting mangoes in Coachella, CA. “This is very hard work. We start before dawn, but temps are already near 100° while we’re working. It’s physical labor, and it’s hard to do in this kind of heat.” Today’s high in Coachella is forecast to reach 109°. #WeFeedYou
It also saves a huge amount of water. See for instance the statistics below:
Annie Leymarie@annieleymarie.bsky.social · last mo."The number of animals farmed worldwide has increased by ½ in the last 2 decades. The rising demand for meat comes at a time when agricultural land is becoming less fertile. ~90% of water withdrawn from natural systems for irrigation is used to grow animal feed." Trends going ↑ instead of ↓ =😳

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

60+ million AIPAC dollars, Whitmer, Pelosi, and other heavyweights endorsing Stevens, and El-Sayed STILL won. I will be basking in this win all week.
💔🇺🇦 Zelensky: As of now, 44 people are known to have been injured in the massive Russian strike on Kyiv and the Kyiv region. Unfortunately, 17 more people died. The strike was heavy: 24 ballistic missiles, 4 “Zircon/Onyx” and another 115 drones, a significant part of them jet.
youtube.com/watch?v=eVAF... Todd Blanche is obviously an accessory to pedophilia & sexual abuse. He is propping up a President with similar vile tastes. The fact that the senate ignores this in the nomination is disgusting. It makes me suspicious that they are active abusers.

“The world has lost more than 2.6 billion barrels of oil since the US-Israeli war with Iran began in February”, the head of Saudi oil giant Aramco said, warning global inventories were running low despite measures to reroute flows.
So AIPAC spent $32 million to help Stevens win in Michigan. That is half of her donated dollars. Don't try to tell us that AIPAC doesn't interfere in our elections and politics. Part of the gall is that we give them $3.8 billion per year and they turn around and buy our country. #AIPAC
First we thought John Mitchell was bad. Then came Bill Barr, who was even worse. But Todd Blanche is in a league of his own.
INTOLERABLE ENOUGH OF THIS CORRUPTION CALL YOUR SENATORS TODAY RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES VOTE NO ON TODD BLANCHE VOTE NO ON TRUMP TAX EXEMPT
