I spent a quarter century teaching people about the environment and then I retired. Dogs, plants, ecosystems, cheeses, electric cars.

From an unknown creative person.
On the surface of the moon and astronaut stands next to an American flag. Next to him is Trump grinning like an idiot.

Stop asking candidates if they "believe in" climate change and start asking if they understand it. It's science, not Santa Claus.

Apparently Dr. Trump has opened an office in Pottery Land and is now accepting new patients.

from Paul Waldman on Public Notice: The world's worst dealmaker screws up the Iran negotiations www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-fail...
And now, Trump is threatening his own blockade of the Strait, which might deprive Iran of the tolls it wants to collect and its ability to move its own oil, but will only extend the energy crisis. It’s tantamount to saying “Not only will I punch you in the face, I’ll punch myself too!”

Now that ICE has a larger budget than the US Marine Corps, we're sending them first, right?  DJSAMIAM

Occasionally, when I want to blow off steam I write a comment to the White House. It goes like this: To whoever reads this, get out now before you soul is hopelessly scarred by the work and the place in which you exist. This is on the site. How horrible.

Trump lies spreadeagled on the ice while a referee holding his nose leans over him saying "He shit himself again." Gordie Howe with 'Fact Check' written on his jersey stands by them with his elbow up. At the top of the frame it says 'Everything Trump said about the Gordie Howe Bridge was wrong."

As in the movie The Wizard of OZ, Trump is melting and flying monkey Stephen Miller says 'relax, I got this'.

Was this assigned reading for you in school? When did you first read it? Do you think it is hyperbolic to compare her situation with today's?

The USA with all it's flaws is going down in flames. We are losing our republic! “A republic, if you can keep it.” --Benjamin Franklin's response to Elizabeth Willing Powel's question: "Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?" Tom, Ben, and Elizabeth celebrate.
Jefferson plays music while Franklin and Ross celebrate the new republic with dance.

In front of the building that housed the Supreme Court a man is mowing the lawn. A cartoon speech balloon from inside says, "Hello ICE? It's Chief Justice Roberts. There's someone Hispanic looking mowing the lawn..."
