The cause of global warming is capitalism. Private companies constantly prioritize short-term gains to satisfy investors. This is why China is now able to cut its emissions at a much faster pace than Western countries: the state still has power over corporations.
A paramilitary group plotted to overthrow the Constitution then conducted a violent attack on America. They were convicted in court of seditious conspiracy, and jailed. Then the leader they aimed to illegally install got power and let them out, their records wiped clean. The Jan. 6 attackers won.
Judge Pained as He Grants Dismissal of Jan. 6 Charges Against Oath Keepers
The judge, Amit P. Mehta, blasted the administration’s request for a dismissal in the case, saying it bestowed “unearned grace” on the Oath Keepers defendants “by wiping their records clean.”

WHAT GOVERNMENT ANYWHERE ON THE PLANET COULD STILL BELIEVE IN OR TRUST AN AMERICA THAT ELECTED A CHILD RAPIST TO THE OFFICE OF "President," SURROUNDED BY HIS GANG OF DEGENERATES❓️🤣
When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.
. Crumbs Every single Dem voter better get out on Nov 3rd, or else 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 Especially the 34% who never bothered to vote, thereby handing the election to Trump et al I suspect Latinos for Trump are not gonna support him again this time Not sure about Blacks for Trump tho, hope not .
The president of the United States is a mentally deranged con man and a pathological liar.

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 Maybe using “carefree” wasn’t very accurate. They should have said “careless“ because that’s what go us into this mess.
Max Fawcett@maxfawcett.bsky.social · 8h agoThis is genuinely astonishing: a piece by the Globe and Mail’s editorial board lamenting the “new normal” of wildfires and summer smoke and no mention whatsoever of a) climate change, or b) the burning of fossil fuels that causes it. #cdnpoli www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/edit...
States with the lowest literacy rates shouldn’t be banning books, they should be reading them
Trump thinks he’s smart because he surrounds himself with stupid people.
In which Mr. Coyne demonstrates how unutterably stupid one Tristin Hopper of the neofascist National Post truly is. 🤷🏼🙄🤷🏼

America’s chain of command is just billionaires tugging on Trump’s leash from different directions.
I prefer presidents who don’t have their accounts closed over money laundering concerns.
The proposition that the president of the United States is an adjudicated rapist isn't an argument. It is a fact.
The president of the United States is a mentally deranged con man and a pathological liar.
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 Maybe Johnson would like to invoke stoning for false prophets too. Evil will prevail when good men do nothing.
Right Wing Watch @rightwingwatch.bsky.social · yesterdayHouse Speaker Mike Johnson credits prayer for the passage of Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill": "It was impossible. There was no way to reconcile everybody and get it all together and we came in here and prayed for a breakthrough and God delivered it."
The founders are calling. They suggest you read the damn Constitution.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayCornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
The following morning, Ukrainian long-range drones struck a major oil refinery in Salavat, Russia. These three events illustrate how warfare has changed - and the lesson for every democracy: survival cannot be outsourced to a single country or entrusted to a single company.

Tahar 🇺🇦 🇵🇸 🇺🇳 🇪🇺@rochaa.bsky.social · 2d agoImagine a bank closing the accounts of the sitting president and the reason listed is money laundering. Just imagine the appropriate level of political scandal that something like that should cause. Now imagine the leading newspaper of the country, @nytimes.com, not writing a word about it
🚨Don't fall for it. Todd Blanche didn't rewrite Trump's controversial IRS deal. He released a late-night DOJ memo designed to help secure the votes for his confirmation. We read the fine print. Here's what it actually says. 👇
Todd Blanche's Midnight Confirmation Gambit Doesn't Actually Rewrite Trump's Deal
And the "concerned" senators and much of the media are falling for it.

Just the fact that media calls it a “Weaponization Fund” shows utter failure to meet the moment. It’s like when you call Trump’s budget a “Big Beautiful Bill.” They get you to launder regime propaganda by creating a title that is a false characterization, which gets published.
