ALL PIPELINES 1/10 STOP CULTURAL GENOCIDE/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/Jan 6 Hearings/climate

This isn't looking good. I remember when we had a surplus. What happened? It's explained here. He's blaming inflation and the interest rates being raised as the reasons why we see deficits in what was projected last summer. GOP control of the House also figures in. -Newsom proposes cuts to climate change programs, child care funding amid cloudy economic outlook

Couldn't agree more. We need to remove all policies set in place by the previous administration, especially this policies related to fossil fuels, and that threaten old growth, our carbon sink protector. This old growth is our carbon sink, and should be left alone no matter where it is. - The Urgent Need to Stop Destructive Environmental Precedent

I agree with Rebecca Tickell in her statement that using film rather than documentary will reach more people. More need exposure to the dangers of these pipelines. I'll carry it a bit further; it explains why these protests happened, who is at risk (present tense intentional), how it relates to our current climate crisis. - Rebecca and Josh Tickell talk about 'On Sacred Ground' film - Digital Journal 

As well it should! WTF?! Definitely have serious issues with this.This should be illegal. - Auction under fire for sale of items from Battle of Little Bighorn

Personally think they're posturing again, pulling their usual political stunts as some members claimed they'd speak out, then didn't. Surprised? You shouldn't be. Some made promises to stand with Dems on outlandish things, but then they didn't. - House Republicans in the dark on McCarthy’s shadow document

Nothing will change unless we make some serious changes in our lifestyles. - The past 8 years were the world's warmest, report finds

It's up to all of us. Each of us can do our small part. - US carbon emissions rose in 2022. Can clean energy get them on track? @CanaryMediaInc

I still am not so sure that they will tell the truth nor do I trust them, considering. We shall see. Interesting, coming now when we have these crazed MAGAs demanding it not be taught in the schools in the US. - UAE to teach Holocaust

As has been said in previous posts, the Russian oligarchy are nothing but pathological liars who are losing this war while they still attack civilian structures, committing even more war crimes. They are such losers in so many different ways. Karma will come for them too. Interesting they're looking at this as a revenge attack. Interesting they're looking at this as a revenge attack. Schools and markets aren't considered military targets. The Russians need to get their act together and leave, never to come back. The world stands with Ukraine and against Russia. - 'Nobody saw a single spot of blood'

Let the truth be told. There is no ideology, no policy, no ethics, something they show everyone daily. They have no shame. - GOP's speaker battle was never about conservative ideology

Great news to AZ schools. Privates and charters especially need to be held accountable. Charter schools are big business that cherrypick their students. No one should be surprised.This is a beginning. Give Hobbs a chance to come through with what she wants to do for eduction in AZ. - Arizona public schools have a powerful ally in Gov. Katie Hobbs. It's about time via @azcentral

Good example of how the GOP wastes tax dollars. This removal will be costlier than first anticipated. Another thing to keep in mind: This is a small window into how the House controlled GOP will be wasting your tax dollars. They'll try their whataboutisms. Don't believe a word they say. They're conning you. - Footing the bill: Doug Ducey's shipping container barrier will cost Arizona taxpayers over $200M via @azcentral

Yup, here he goes, @RepDonaldsPress, it's all about revenge. He's putting the blame on the Dems. He's making a lot of claims, the usual GOP BS. Why am I not surprised? No one should be. The GOP remind me of little kids in on the playground. A lot of lies are being told, a lot of whataboutisms, the usual. By the way, notice no concrete evidence. Donald's argument doesn't wash. - GOP Rep. Byron Donalds and Joy Reid debate his nomination for House speaker after one term via @msnbc

Quite a read, many questions posed. Pending possible memberships in NATO & the EU, will they follow through? Can promises made be kept? Ukraine’s fight for democracy is also ours. How will their security be guaranteed or can it be. For me this was a troubling read. - What Does It Mean to Provide ‘Security Guarantees’ to Ukraine?

Will the Court actually understand how important this is to the tribes that have filed an amicus brief or will they scoff at it again, not seeing the connection of religious practices to this sacred place? I doubt they will. I fully expect them to do as they have with other sacred places in the past. Remember oral arguments begin this year, the week of March 20, 2023. - Court Panel Urged to Protect Oak Flat and Tribal Religious Practices - Native American Rights Fund

Good to see support for protecting Oak Flat by different religions and religious organizations. Will it mean something? Only time will tell.Interested in learning more?

A little too black & white to me, & general. Reminds me of an either/or fallacy. But this isn't quite as much the case if you click on the source at the end. - Understanding partisanship nuances may be the key to climate action via @AnthropoceneMag

Let's give away lands House Republicans own. They want to act like they are, turn about is fair play. In case you can't tell, I'm really pissed off. They're working for the fossil fuel lobby. That's part of what the byline to this article directly says. - House Republicans Just Made It Easier for Congress to Give Away Public Lands via @truthout

No intro is needed. The title explains what's presented here, something also needed. - Secretary Haaland Establishes Orphaned Wells Program Office to Implement Historic Investments from Bipartisan Infrastructure Law via @interior
