ALL PIPELINES 6/5-6 STOP GENOCIDE/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacredSites/Israel-HamasWar/Elections 2024

I was gone most of today, and still came home to no electricity to look into what happened today that I missed. So, I'll be adding to this page mostly tomorrow.

What today's vote in the Senate means. This is one of many things that stand out: "Most importantly, contraception access decreases poverty and increases earnings." Then there's that gag order the convicted felon wants gone. Read the letter submitted by the NY Asst Attorneys General. Last but not least don't forget about the Convicted Felon's sycophant, Judge Aileen Cannon. - Going Retrograde

Trying to distract from the UN's disgraceful response to not only 10/7 but to whether outsiders believe  Israel has the right to defend herself and her citizens? That's what it looks like to me, something that has been continual since the beginning. Then there's the topic alluded to in the title here, which IMHO is way too late, which should have been addressed years ago. All should have been handled with the speed of a rabbit, not the tortoise. - U.N. chief calls for global fossil fuel ad ban

Looking ahead to the near future, mark your calendars, especially if this is something you pay close attention to like I have. Much is at stake. Remember Dems control Senate committees. This will be live-streamed. - Public Lands, Forests and Mining Subcommittee Hearing to Receive Testimony on Pending Legislation

A bit of good news. We need more of this. Still nothing here relates to Oak Flat. Will the same kind of decision be made to save this sacred place? - BLM safeguards 98.9% of Sonoran Desert National Monument, its Indigenous resources, desert life from recreational shooting

I missed the show last night but plan to look for it later today. I already admire Kamala Harris, always have. Interesting read. - Boom: VP Kamala Harris Drops Mic on Late Night

Most here is President Biden's speech re: D-Day in France. So different, so refreshing, from that embarrassment of the Convicted Felon's actions when he was still president. A bit of discussion is included afterwards With PA's Gov. Shapiro afterwords, both worth a listen IMHO. - President Biden: The destruction between dictatorship and freedom is unending

Another worthwhile article about saving Oak Flat. Good video included, worth the time to watch. Yes, this is from 5/13/24, but it was just shared with me today, and being an ally and supporter of protecting this sacred place, I'm sharing it now too with all of you. If nothing else, watch the video. It makes clear what is at stake. It does affect all of us. - The Apache Stronghold Standing in the Way of a Massive Copper Mine

This is frightening. Another option is needed, not more threats to indigenous sacred places which is where these minerals are usually found. Then there's the fact that they affect everyone because of the waste and water issues, especially in the West and SouthWest. Think of how this will poison water sources. - Russian Uranium Ban Reopens Threat of Uranium Mining Escalation in US

Putin is dangerous in many ways. This is just another one of them. This is also important tho not the only important thing mentioned: "Ukraine’s partners must also commit to redouble—not roll-back—their support of Ukraine’s wider war effort should Russian actions lead to a nuclear safety incident at the ZNPP." This is a long read. - Despite the risks, Russia continues to use Ukraine's Zaporizhazhia nuclear plant as a source of leverage

Pay attention to what is said in the byline besides what's said in this op-ed. Both are important if you care about the lives of immigrants.Stark differences between the two parties are presented, more that we need to keep in mind when November 5th comes around. -  Opinion: | The Biden immigration order exposes MAGA hypocrisy

Here is that excellent interview with @VP Kamala Harris on Jimmy Kimmel last night. Just with a focus on healthcare, something that really needs to be pointed out that Biden's challenger, the Convicted Felon wants to do with Obamacare. What am I referring to specifically? Insurance companies cannot deny a person healthcare because of an existing condition. Just think about what it would mean to many of us across the country. - Vice President Kamala Harris on Protecting Reproductive Rights, Trump's Guilty Verdict and Health Care. 

This isn't new. First my dad used one of those old fashioned mowers. Eventually he moved on to one that ran on electricity. We're talking about years ago. Solar energy could certainly bring down air conditioning costs in places like Phoenix, AZ. - Electric lawn equipment, solar could be home-electrification 'gatways'

As well they should be. Still think Roberts should be added to this group as well. - Democrats Set The Stage To Hold Alito And Thomas Accountable

Common sense. - That hit on Caitlin Clark was a cheap shot, in any basketball league

He's not the only one who wants to see this. Yes, this is a long read. If nothing else, watch the video included. The argument is clear there. - Palestinian activist wants both sides to see the conflict through each other's eyes
