ALL PIPELINES 11/30 STOP GENOCIDE/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacredSites

Jen Rubin of the Washington Post says this is a must read. Let what is described here sink in. -   The World's Feminists Need to Show Up for Israeli Victims This is what happens when you release prisoners for hostages. -  Three killed, 6 injured in Hamas-claimed terror shooting at Jerusalem bus stop | The Times of Israel Hostages freed from Gaza Recount Violence, Hunger and Fear The picture speaks a thousand words. - Israel-Hamas War Day 55 | Two Israelis Freed From Hamas Captivity, Eight More to Be Released Soon Facts do matter. Worth the time time to read.  Blinken is not just meeting with Netanyahu. - Israel agrees to "clear plan" to protect civilians in Gaza, Blinken says Question: Why are those who participated in the coup still in Congress? Vote them O.U.T. - Bombshell Scott Perry Texts Catch The GOP Red Handed Participated Trump's Coup Respect sacred land of others. Those pushing this project just don't get it. If it was their churches, then maybe, but no...

Maybe something here will help those overcome by the antisemitism and islamophobia that surrounds us. - Keep Going Granted as I've said before, I don't put much credence in polls. Make sure you get out and vote, period. - 4 New Polls Show Biden Leading Again, GDP at 5.2%!!!!!!!

Then there are the other issues inflicted. Read to find out more. - Solutions to the pay gap for Native American women could be found in their tribes Notice the byline. That fact should keep us all focused, period. I also think of where this one is located. Where was a majority of the oil coming from? Who was responsible for the high price? I'm thinking OPEC here. Note the quotes at the end of this article. - COP28 sucks. Pay attention anyway. Still no male hostages released. -  Israel-Hamas t...

Posting this video separately as well as the article it is presented with in the AZ Republic after this. Most definitely worth a watch considering what lies ahead of us. - Tracing the fight for voting rights in the United States This is the article the above video is attached to. Personally glad to see this. - Supreme Court rejects Arizona GOP leaders' effort to avoid deposition in voting rights suit.  While I’m not one who gives credence to polls I find this an interesting read coming out of NC. - Biden Gains 4 Points In New Poll, We Are Better Off (again), and Anderson Clayton Tonight at 7 pm EST Note the FACTS presented in the video included within this article.

Decent read. - We Are Better Off, Hoping the Pause Continues, Congress gets back to work, The Insurrection Never Ended  Not surprising. - Suspect in Vermont Shooting of Palestinian students pleads not guilty Possibility exists here in the Senate but in the House. - The Voter Choice Reintroduced in the Senate It still is Native American Heritage Month, granted at the tale end. - Native American storytellers enjoying rare moment in the spotlight John Eastman Wants to Go to Trial Perhaps showing that it's best to be a centrist Dem, maybe slightly to the left, most definitely not to the right.  -  Opinion: Biden's bear hug worked with Israel How horrific and this isn't even the worst of it I suspect. Watch the videos at the beginning. - Newly freed hostages describe what life wa...

Not sure if this article will be available for all to read. I saw it on Post.News and was able to "buy" access.  It is a good read. The question is an extremely important one IMHO. - Great Lakes tribes' knowledge of nature could be key to climate change. Will people listen? Facts Matter - don't ever forget that. What is said here is factual, period. - John Kirby: Hamas wants genocide, Israel's defending itself against genocidal threat Why is this not surprising?  However, this article includes suggestions as well in terms of what people can do.   -   Climate change is happening. Why do so many of us act like it's not? Worthwhile read. Questions posed within this article are on the minds of others. - Will The Pause Continue? It's Up to Hamas. Polling in Israel and the US, Holodomor Memorial Day Look at what drilling for gas and oil would do to the Arctic Refuge. This is NOT acceptable! -  The Caribou Are What Make Us Neets'aii Gwich'n  If you missed...

Key sentence: "Moreover, nuclear was never green." - Readers write: Nuclear power no answer to climate change  Using one of my chances to gift this article. Then maybe someone will read it though I doubt anyone supporting Hamas will. They bask in their ignorance , wearing blinders and spread misinformation. Those  of us who know better must be louder. - Israeli women count, too Reading Joyce Vance's piece today makes me think too that it would be great to go one day without the craziness coming from the single term, twice impeached guy facing 91 felony counts entering the scene. What's most important here is the first set of bullet points presented. You'll see what I mean when reading. - A Very Trump Thanksgiving

This made me smile this morning. IMHO it's a small win but a win nonetheless. They didn't get the needed permit as stated in the byline. - The LNG  export boom just hit a snag in Texas This is what we need, clean energy, and jobs in it, a double win. - US government deploys $41M to train clean energy workforce Yes, if you haven't made comments please take the time. This means writing your own comments is necessary because as said in this article, the Army Corps looks at form comments as just one comment. Also a few other things should be kept in mind like these: "Wolf says it’s important to remember that the public comment period deals strictly with the half-mile stretch of the pipeline under Lake Oahe. He added that the Army Corps only regulates land used by the company and has no authority to regulate the pipeline itself."  Of course Energy Transfer doesn't want to move this pipeline near Bismarck. - Still concerned about the Dakota Access pipeline? The feds...

Thoughts on this? First thing that popped into my mind were the issues with the grid in Texas. Will this happen in CA?  - California's grid is hindering its climate goals. Can a new law fix this? You can choose to watch on YouTube or read or both. He has created another group to bring older folks into the climate change fight.    It is a long interview, almost an hour, but well worth the time.  -  LNG exports are a "really, really big thing" climate threat, McKibben says  Not good at all. - Federal Court ruling threatens to gut the Voting Rights Act Let this sink in.

Reading this made methinks  of Myron Dewqwy.  -  Quechan filmmaker immerses himself in in culture, shares Native stories through film Some things mentioned in here disturbing like the German journalist paid off by Putin.

I've posted more with Hillary Clinton speaking about her experience with Hamas as Secretary of State. Yes, it's worth a read. Jen Rubin, an op-ed columnist posted this article on Threads. She said, "hillaryclinton is right: Hamas cannot be allowed to once again retrench, re-arm, and launch new attacks—while continuing to use people in Gaza as expendable human shields. Second, a full cease-fire that leaves Hamas in power would be a mistake. For now, pursuing more limited humanitarian pauses that allow aid to get in and civilians and hostages to get out is a wiser course." Both have said this about what a ceasefire would do. Many more have echoed the same thing. - Hamas must go More reason for all of us to register voters & do what we can to get the vote out. This guy has to be stopped & never be allowed anywhere near any political office anywhere in this country as I've said many times before. - Opinion | A right-wing think tank is building a MAGA army for ...

Thoughts? Mine - with the war still in full swing and many Ukrainians out of the country, an election now makes no sense. - As war frustrations rise, stalement tests Zelenskyy and top general Zaluzhny UGH! - Louisiana's new governor is one of the fossil fuel industry's biggest defenders Looks like the GOP didn't learn their lesson yesterday.

Still isn't long enough. - Trump appointee who assaulted Capitol officers on Jan. 6 was sentenced to nearly 6 years In spite of what is said here, IMHO the crisis isn't anywhere near averted. - Colorado River crisis averted?
