Just Mine Now

This article needs to be read and shared widely. This is from the  Cleveland Plain Dealer. More papers still in existence should be doing the same thing.  - Our Trump reporting upsets some readers, but there aren't two sides to facts. Letter from the editor.  This is like a dream coming true. They're waking up. Still it's very important to check your registration, and no excuses, make sure you vote in November. It's about saving our Democracy. This is no joke. - Small Town America Is Turning on Trump Just because. -  Protecting Sacred Land This should be obvious. - Protecting Forests Can Help Us Combat the Climate Crisis--If Done Right I suggest listening to this article with those involved actually speaking. - The Yurok tribe regains Redwood park land to create their own historical park Unfortunately I'm out of gifts for WAPO. This is a good read. Glad to see he has lost it in CA. This also speaks about those whose licenses have been suspended or who have been dea...

Nope not surprised. Any fraudulent votes have been found to be Republican. This guy isn’t the first one. - A Judge  Finally Found Fraudulent Votes. They're All From a Republican.   Interesting read. I just kept thinking he’s another grifter, using his inexperienced choice to get himself on ballots. As mentioned too his family really doesn’t like this guy. We already know he’ll never win. He instead may propel someone most of us abhor into office. See what you think. - Why Democrats Shouldn't Worry About RFK, Jr. | The New Republic Unfortunately this article will only be available for 7 days. A link was sent to me in order to read the entire thing, Basically this is all about the far right Republicans doing whatever they can to remain in power. This is worth the read. -  Cutting  Off U.S. Aid Will Only Prolong the War in Ukraine Doubt RFK Jr's running mate has the funds to make a change about this. - Cesar Chavez's Sons Tell RFK Jr. to Back Off His Image  Again ...

This guy is grifting again. He knows nada about what's in the bible. It's all about trying to get the bucks he needs to pay his fines. He has no clue of what prayer actually is. - Charlie Sykes: Trump is commodifying the Bible during Holy Week It makes a a person think just who is behind the news. - NBC Execs Reportedly Conspired With Rona McDaniel Against Their Own Journalists  Forests need to be protected, especially the Tongass.

Yes, it matters. - A step toward healing: Navajo Nation's uranium mining cleanup begins Not a surprise at all coming from a GOP controlled legislature that would love to make it difficult for Arizonans to vote. - GOP wants to scrap Arizona early voting. The plan is one vote away from the November ballot

This shouldn't surprise anyone. We already saw how little this guy knows about government. The video has nothing to do with the article here.  Wonder how his followers will feel should he be elected and they are deprived of their hard earned social security. Are they  really that ignorant?  -    Trump flunks test on Social Security basics amid larger debate Yes, there's a pop up here, but you can remove it easily by clicking the x in the upper right hand corner.

We need to take back the House. - Should the GOP fear a 'Speaker Jeffries' before the elections? McDaniel is looking for something by doing this. Common sense.

This has taken way too long to happen. - EPA officials pledge to clean up old uranium mines at first uranium Navajo Superfund site In other words we have to stop the the orange guy from ever winning again. Thank about this; " But America’s own upcoming presidential election is the reason we should pay attention to Slovakia’s—and the domestic political context in which it is taking place."  -  Slovakia's Presidential Election Is A Warning to America If nothing else, watch the video included at the beginning. Interesting what he said about Bush v. Gore. Interesting also he keeps going back to his new book. By the way he says Roes should not have been overturned, and that's not all he says. He says the same about the Casey case.  -  Former Justice Stephen Beyer: It's possible Dobbs could be overruled some day " 17 million of water a day of water would be wasted for 40 years. "Resolution has been exempt from all environmental laws." The destruction is u...

This is a great interview with Ruben Gallego from last night. He’s an excellent candidate for the Senate representing Arizona. If you have friends in Arizona please share this with them. Share it with others who work to get Democrats elected across the country. In other words, share everywhere with others you can think of. He will strengthen our numbers in the Senate. Just listen. He’s all in for all of us. This interview has me fired up like President Biden's State of the Union did recently. - Ruben Gallego, the Next Senator From Arizona, Joins the Hopium Community This is good news for Wisconsin. We need this elsewhere to defeat the red state attempts to suppress the vote. - Wisconsin Governor Signs Two Pro-Voting Bills Into Law Definitely something to be cognizant of, folks. Let this sink in: " A troubling trend is emerging in the nation’s most conservative federal appeals court." And this: ' Republican officials have now made a habit of asking the court to rehear ...

This should come as no surprise. This describes this guy facing tons of felonies. -  Inflated Egos, Deflated Assets: Trump’s Bond Crisis Mapped This is a very important read about the effect of the misinformation being spread about birth control. We do need to be cognizant, and make sure the right info. is out there. You know who's most targeted, women of color. - Women are getting off birth control amid misinformation explosion WTH? Sure glad I was there Monday to get my license. - DMV services disrupted nationwide over system outage Fits both with Canada and the US even though no banks in the US are mentioned. Still we know which ones do the same thing here. - No More Dirty Banks: Demanding Fossil Fuel Divestment and Indigenous Rights at RBC's 2024 AGM This is good news for Public Service Workers, another example of the Biden Administration trying to do whatever it can to help out the people of this country. This is on top of the student dept cancellation he has signed. - St...

Of course, Cannon won't. She's a sychopant of Biden's predecessor. -  But Really Just File a Motion to Recuse Already In how many other states is someone trying to run who has been banned? - Couy Griffin is history. Disinformation is not. Something many of us know who have been following what's happening with Oak Flat, especially since the Ninth Circuit Court handed down its egregious decision putting profit over another's religious beliefs. - Oak Flat under threat: Professor Stephanie Barclay leads discussion on urgency of protecting Indigenous sacred site This is what it's all about. The latter should take precedent. Think the first amendment of the Bill of Rights. The Ninth Circuit has violated that. - Copper mining and religious rights clash in Arizona Talk about craziness in red states, this spells out why clearly. What won't they try to keep others from casting a ballot in Alabama. - Alabama governor Signs Restrictive Absentee Ballot Assistance Bill In...

Yes, this relates to climate change too. It's also attacking religious rights that are promised by the Constitution, you know, the first amendment.

Wade reversel This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention.  "Now VP Harris finds herself in the middle of a barrage of hit pieces, and we all must understand the significance of what is really happening."  Does this need any explanation? I would think not.  - VP Kamala Harris is a Force to be Reckoned With Just watch. Know that we mu...

Want to see someone who really stole an election? Look to Russia, to Putin, to the recent last Russian election. Russians don't want him in power. He had his opposition murdered.

Of course he says this after the fact that he had Navalny murdered. - Putin says he agreed to swap Alexei Navalny for prisoners held in the West.   This is an important read IMO. Look at what happened when that last guy claimed it was a minor thing that would be over soon plus suggested all those BS cures the other guy wanted people to try. - 11 charts that show how covid changed the U.S. economy Not something I want to think about, but ha...

Hamas wants much more than it will ever deserve IMHO. That many criminals for a small number of hostages? This is NUTS!  - Hamas presents ceasefire proposal detailing exchange of hostages, prisoners BP - Messing with Maps: A lotta damn dams edition I'm not surprised. He is incompetent in many ways. Even tho the video isn't related directly to the article, it's still worth watching. - Trump trials, fails to clean up his Social Security, Medicare mess A trailer to this documentary is included. IMO Enbridge should be stopped. All that company cares about is making money. Just in case you don't know, they have a lousy track record with pipelines. -  Documentary shows Bad River Band's resilience as Line 5 battle continues WTH?!  Whatever you do, don't vote for any Republicans. They support this nasty, leaking pipeline. Make sure you vote. - Environmental Impact Statement on DAPL 'on the shelf.' could be released around election day This is NOT a surprise at a...

I've had issues with Netanyahu for quite some time. Before 10/7 Israelis had issues with him, too. I haven't forgotten that. If nothing else listen to what Sen. Schumer has to say about him. I agree with him for whatever it's worth. - BREAKING: Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer says the Netanyahu government 'no longer fits the needs of Israel' and calls for new elections What won't his lawyers try? Connected to Hillary's emails? What Biden's predecessor has done taking documents, and claiming they're his doesn't even come close to what he's done. - Live Updates: Trump's lawyers bring up Hillary Clinton during hearing in classified documents case The only ones who have issues protecting Oak Flat are those justices on the 9th Circuit and the company looking to mine in Oak Flat.

Have to love seeing this happen to Death Santis in FL. Want to see this happen to even more of his asinine policies. - Ron DeSantis's Anti-LGBTQ Regime is Crumbling   Well what do you know. Britt is being called out. Read to find out more though the title pretty much tells you what you need to know. - The woman whose sex trafficking story Katie Britt invoked speaks out. it's mostly on Johnson for not bringing this to a vote.

Remember they listened to the orange clown to to pass the bipartisan bill re: the border. In a red state, push your reps. Call them out on their BS. - Democrats launch effort to force vote on Ukraine Let's look at what the IRA (Inflation Reduction Act) is actually helping even more. Don't forget who actually voted for this bill. More reason to vote for more Democrats this year and every year.  - The  IRA has ...

I have to agree with what Rubin has to say about Porter. It goes beyond whining about losing. - Opinion | What happened to Katie Porter? A Lesson for Democrats This spells it out IMO. The second paragraph echoes my sentiments about when she first announced before Feinstein announced her retirement. That turned me off in the beginning. - Katie Porter prepared for the wrong war Yes, this is THAT important. This is from a couple days ago. This should be a given. Plenty of evidence exists that support this claim, period. One example, think back to the spill at the Puerto River and its effects. If you don't know what I'm referring to here, google it. The year was 1979. Don't tell me this can't happen again.  Think about RECA that expires this year. Don't tell me this can't happen again. Put people ahead of $$ from mining. - Tribes meeting with Inter-American Commission on Human Rights Describe Harms Uranium Mining Has Had on Them, and the Threats New Mines Pose

If nothing else watch the video where Michael Beschloss is interviewed. - Michael Bewchoss: Biden channeled Harry Truman in SOTUS address Quite an interview with President Biden after the SOTU, first of two exclusive interviews. - Exclusive interview with President Biden following the State of the Union address Unfortunately there's a repeat of the question about MTG in the beginning, someone who I think should be ignored instead of giving her even a little press. - EXCLUSIVE: Biden says he regrets migrant an 'illegal' during the State of the Union speech Steele is right for taking this stance. Totally wowed by what he has to say. - 'Check yourself': Michael Steele slams outgoing RNC chair for making a mess of the Republican party Glad we have this technology to watch what was said earlier on news programs early today.

Notice what is said about a couple laws that really are misnomers:  1971 Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act and Murkowski's  Unrecognized Southeast Alaska Native Communities Recognition and Compensation Act. They're not  what they appear to be.  -  Why Alaskan Nati...

THAT is not acceptable, ever! - EPA targets uranium waste on the Navajo Nation, adding Lukachukai mines to Superfund list Claiming culpability for the protests. And then? Why didn't he act? IMO too little too late.  Too much was destroyed as a result like cultural sites. Very short read. -  Army Corps General testifies department's inaction fueled DAPL protests This turns my stomach: " Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance  (SUWA), a nonprofit conservation group, said they believe the BLM gave Kraken the go-ahead on drilling without conducting a proper, critical look at the operation." How much more of this is happening? Talk about irresponsible greed putting others in danger." How much more of this is happening?

According to a draft permit, the company would discharge up to 6.48m gallons (24.5m liters) a day of 'treated mine drainage water, tailings seepage, groundwater, core cutting water, drilling water, and stormwater' into Harshaw Creek, in the Santa Cruz watershed."

It's important to respect the beliefs of others, especially those different from our own. Other questions not posed but should be involve water contamination/waste. - A US appeals court ruling could allow mine development on Oak Flat, land sacred to Apaches | AP News  This ruling isn't a surprise.
