Energy and climate activist living in Las Vegas, cat dad.
Dementia Don came to town today. Check what he said elsewhere, it's as deranged as you'd expect. I believe that if you come to my town, you're going to address my issues. So, I made sure I was in the right place with my sign with my message, just for him. Feel free to not come back.
It was every other Friday today, which means it's time for #FightFascismFridays with @indivisiblelasvegas.org! It was a warm day, but we came prepared and rallied in the shade. We had a good turnout including some new faces, who are always welcome.
We know it's a 1000 degrees outside, but we'll be in the shade, and we have misters. The point is we must keep showing up and speaking up. Join us Friday! RSVP here: www.mobilize.us/indivisible...

Researchers used electric stoves to treat asthma. It worked.
The latest evidence that gas is bad for your health.

Some pictures from tonight's candlelight vigil and protest of ICE in front of the Clark County Detention Center. A coalition of groups gathered together to reject the treatment of members of our communities by our government.
In commemoration of Rep. John Lewis, it's a #GoodTrouble edition of #FightFascismFridays in downtown Las Vegas with @indivisiblelasvegas.org. These protests are fun and good for the soul. Why *wouldn't* you want to come down and join us? Check out www.indivisiblelasvegas.org for our event schedule.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4w agoChris Wright accuses Democrats of "betting the farm on the sun and the wind" and says, "that was a disastrous bet that drove high electricity prices and stopped any growth of American electricity production"
All these things can be true: 1) The U.S. gov (esp. Trump) intervening is and looks bad. 2) FIFA has a history of corruption and selectively applying rules. 3) Lack of transparency makes FIFA look worse. 4) Balogun’s red was given due to the ref misapplying VAR rules and should have been overturned.
Hold on to that thought for, oh, say, three years, would you?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo.BASH: There's an olympian - David Hearn - who was indicted. He faces 10 years in prison. He says he didn't do anything other than reach into the reflecting pool. Do you really think he should face a 10 year sentence? BURGUM: Just bc you were a former something doesn't exclude you from the law
