Today is the final day for #missouri Sec of State Denny Hoskins to verify the signatures for the people to vote on the gerrymandered map they passed mid-decade, which we should have been voting on this election, and the Respect MO voters initiative to keep the lawmakers from overturning our votes.

Earth is now warming faster than at any point in recorded geological history - around 10 times faster than the extreme warming event 56 million years ago and 20 times faster than at the end of the last ice age. We are almost certainly in a new extinction event.

It has been criminally underreported but Kelsey Pfendler has just rowed solo across the Pacific Ocean from the US coast to Hawaii in record time. A 2,400-mile unsupported journey in 43 days, 17 hours, and 55 minutes. Notably beating the Men’s record by 9 whole days.

DATA CENTERS: THE TRUTH "A big employer who uses the water of 50,000 people - which only hires about ten people - is not an employer. They are an extraction."

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.

Big ugly delay. I urge all who question why it was signed into law a year ago, to read the descriptions of when elements will take effect. Trump plays politics with peoples lives and livelihoods. #TrumpSucks

DAY 30 OF 55: If Amendment 5 passes, Missouri politicians will be able to raise or add taxes on every good or service in your life. You're not getting a tax cut — you're getting taxed to death through a thousand tiny paper cuts. Vote NO on Amendment 5 on Tuesday, August 4th.
