So next time someone tells you Canada’s fires can be solved by “raking the forests“, you can point out that the thing filling their sky with smoke is a lightning-struck, drought-primed boreal forest doing what a warming climate is making it do more and more often.

Canada's boreal wildfires aren't just bad forest management
Higher fire season temperatures are strongly correlated with increased area burned

@radiofreetom.bsky.social is exactly right. Make sure you get the independent vote along with Democratic voter turnout. MAGA will be MAGA. Turnout in November will tell us if we still have a Democracy in December.

I talked to Jamie Raskin about his explosive exchange with CNN's Dana Bash. "The media should understand that the survival of the free press is at stake right now," he tells me. "There is only one party in America trying to censor and control the press.” New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2095...

BREAKING: The U.S. bishops’ Committee on Doctrine just issued a formal statement defending Pope Leo XIV's teaching authority on just war doctrine — less than twelve hours after JD Vance told a Turning Point USA crowd the pope should “be careful” talking theology. This is a serious escalation.

On this Tax Day a reminder that Trump has levied one of the largest tax increases on the American people in history through his tariffs, illegally, without Congressional authorization, as a first step in a broader strategy to continue shifting the tax burden from the wealthy to all of us.

This is terrible for Americans and also hurts national security. Increasing the military budget won’t defeat Iran. What is actually called for — under a sane government — would be a systematic defense review with an eye to less expensive systems that are suited to modern war. (1/4)

One thing I’m thinking about today is the hollowness of all the “Don’t Tread on Me” extremists, who turn out to be just far-right extremists. Dems should retake the Gadsden flag. Is there a good blue maker of Gadsden flags that doesn’t support far-right causes?
