What the congressman reports below is disgusting. He reveals the utter lack of decency and humanity in the Trump administration, especially in the telling detail at the end.

More than 2,000 farmers, chefs and policymakers gathered in the Philippines to champion food systems rooted in biodiversity, Indigenous knowledge and local resilience. As climate risks grow, the meeting pushed agroecology and regional cooperation as alternatives to industrial agriculture.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed. The next could be you. What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones. This is personal — to every one of us.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

HUGE: Senate Parliamentarian says that Mike Lee's public land sell-off violates the Byrd rule, requires 60 votes in the Senate. A bunch of other terrible anti-environment provisions do too. This isn't over, but this is a huge win. www.budget.senate.gov/ranking-memb...
Provisions Subject to a 60-Vote Byrd Rule Point of Order

Energy and Natural Resources

NEPA compliance. These provisions deem offshore oil and gas projects as automatically compliant with the National Environmental Policy Act, nullifying these projects' environmental review processes. (Subsection

102(b)(4) and Subsection 102(b)(5))

Offshore oil and gas leasing. This subsection

requires leases to be issued to successful bidders within 90 days after the lease sale.

(Subsection 102(b)(6))

Ambler Road. This section requires the

Secretary of the Interior to permit construction of Ambler Road, a controversial mining road in Alaska. (Section 201)

Mandatory public land sales. This section mandates the unprecedented sale of millions of acres of public land, including from both Bureau of Land Management and U.S. Forest Service lands. (Section 301)Renewable energy fees. This subsection removes the Secretary of the Interior's discretion to reduce fees for solar and wind projects on Bureau of Land Management land. (Subsection 303(e))

Geothermal leasing and royalties. These sections require the Secretary of the Interior to hold yearly geothermal lease sales and purport to change how geothermal royalties are calculated. (Section 305 and Section 306)

Natural gas exports and imports. This section creates a pay-to-play regime for natural gas exports, allowing natural gas exporters to pay a fee to have their project be deemed "in the public interest," which is a requirement for approval. (Section 401)

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Imagine this: the Amazon and other tropical forests are like nature’s lungs 🌎 But those lungs? They’re wheezing A new study shows these forests aren’t adapting fast enough to climate change. They're struggling to keep up It’s not just trees at risk - it’s all of us 🧪 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
 Conceptual figure depicting the analyzed mechanisms for change in community trait composition across the study area.
Tree individuals that are alive and have a DBH ≥10 cm are part of the full community assemblage. Across time, there can be changes in the community trait composition due to growth of the surviving tree individuals (survivor assemblage) given their increase in basal area (top right). Other mechanisms for changing community trait composition across time are the recruitment (recruit assemblage) of new individuals (middle right) and the death (fatality assemblage) of individuals in the community (bottom right).
