Pete Hegseth gave a speech in front of a backdrop that almost perfectly matches Nazi imagery. Meanwhile, Trump calls opponents “vermin” who he will “root out,” and says the blood of our country is being poisoned. We are far past left vs right. Our choice is democracy or fascism.

All painted bike lanes are car infrastructure. The engineers have checked a box, while still allowing at-will, unimpeded movement by motorists in the heart of a major city. This design only serves those who are comfortable being uncomfortable.

Israel has left Gaza devastated: 134K+ buildings destroyed, 74,000+ Palestinians killed and mass displacement. In the West Bank, Israeli settlement expansion and settler attacks are accelerating as Palestinians are expelled from their homes and land. It is genocide. Survivors ask: "Where do we go?"

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, the media, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's Fascism 101.

Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

Israeli attacks on Gaza since 2023 killed at least 73,795 people, wounded more than 174,800. More than 20,000 children killed, 44,000 injured. Thousands of children have lost limbs, while roughly 17,000 have been left unaccompanied or orphaned. The US is directly complicit in this atrocity.

Summers in the US are getting hotter due to human-caused climate change. 2026 will be the hottest and most humid in the contiguous US since records began in 1895. We need investments in clean energy, updates to permitting systems, and help for communities to adapt to climate hazards.

Sometimes I can’t even fully process the catastrophe that RFK Jr. has unleashed upon the United States. It is infuriating and demoralizing that tens of thousands of scientists and healthcare professionals banded together to oppose his confirmation, and Republicans just blithely ignored us all.

Prescription drugs are about to get even more expensive. Trump is coming for Medicare Part D subsidies, which try to keep drug prices down (they're still too high.) We desperately need Medicare for All. No parts A, B, C, or D. No premiums, co-pays, deductibles. Just healthcare when you need it.

On Aug. 11, the contiguous U.S. set a record for min temps using the Climate Shift Index, with 82% of the lower 48 experiencing the largest spatial extent of overnight heat influenced by climate change (≥1). This will only become even more common and impactful if we continue to burn fossil fuels.
Graphic showing the Climate Shift Index for August 11, 2026 using data from the 18z GFS model for minimum temperatures. The graphic shows the change in likelihood due to climate change across the contiguous United States, which is called the Climate Shift Index. Many areas are seeing minimum temperatures being at least 1-5x more likely due to climate change. This tool is available at https://csi.climatecentral.org/climate-shift-index from Climate Central.

We cut down trees and then wonder why the Earth is getting hotter. The shade we destroyed yesterday is the heat we suffer under today. A tree is not just wood—it is oxygen, rain, cool air, shelter, and life. Plant trees. Protect forests.

“Cars are the most absurd means of transport in a city,” [says Jean-Louis Missika, Paris’s deputy mayor for urbanisation]. “They are parked 95% of the time. It takes two tonnes to move someone who weighs 70kg. And the denser the city, the more absurd it is.” www.ft.com/content/882e...
