SCOTUS will hear Suncor v. Boulder at 10am today. It's the biggest climate case since 2022, when MAGA Justices invented a fake constitutional "doctrine" to hamstring EPA's authority to fight climate pollution under the Clean Air Act.

Suncor v. Boulder: the Supreme Court climate lawsuit against Big Polluters, and what it means for you
Polluter-caused climate change costs all of us money. This case will decide whether the American people can sue Big Polluters to make them pay their share.

I repeat again: I think Lindsey Graham's death removed one guardrail against Trump's total capitulation to Russia. Iran is the one major thing left--and Putin will try to lure him there with a win-win peace plan.

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.

One of the underlying premises of the full-scale invasion was Putin’s conviction that a distinct Ukrainian cultural identity did not exist. At the same time, the Ukrainian publishing industry experienced a boom following the invasion. Now, Russian attacks are jeopardizing that growth.
