If you think that today's ruling that bribery of government officials is not illegal sucks than blame the people that couldn't bring themselves to vote for Hilary Clinton because she wasn't what they would have preferred,

Is everyone aware that unless we stop soon, below 2 degrees C, increasing parts of the global land areas will become too hot to live, so that many hundreds of millions will have to move to cooler, higher latitudes?

Sometimes I wonder if inflation is the primary issue or the price gouging that comes with it. We need federal laws with heavy fines to protect us from that.

Especially when Garland has bent over backwards to avoid prosecutions. So many crimes & so little action! It seems unfair.

Caught Paying People to Attend Rally

A Craigslist ad has been found offering payment for people to attend Trump's rally in Las Vegas today.

Remember the video from a few days ago where Trump was waving at a non-existent crowd? It appears EVERYTHING IS A FACADE.

The media wants you to think Trump has enthusiasm, but the facts say otherwise.

Probably won’t cover as extensively unless things get interesting, but ’s / trial is back on today w/ continued selection.

A was quickly dismissed at the start. She was among the 7 already selected, she said she was very worried that despite the fact the court ruled to keep jurors’ name secret, she would still be exposed & targeted.

I will NOT (& often CANNOT) answer questions, so please don’t ask me any. If you have a comment/question for the universe, please label it “NFL” (Not For Laffy) so I can skip thru my replies.

Trump is sitting in court now, surrounded on both sides by his lawyers.

Trump has five children that we know of. He has never attended the high school graduation of the first four,

After decades of seeing climate science denial continue relatively unabated, I don't have confidence that we can affect what these are intent on doing.

I think that our best approach towards reducing the damage they cause would be to spread twice as much positive news on the climate progress that's being made and the benefits from doing it. I certainly don't see how it could cause any harm trying a different approach. I know being cynical is more fun, but does it help?

There is an energy transition happening away from fossil fuels even if it's not obvious to you,

Unless their locations supply 50kW or greater direct current fast charger electric vehicle charging at a ratio of one charging station per gas nozzle, gas stations in Sacramento will not be able to get permits to upgrade their fossil fuel infrastructure anymore if this new proposal passes.

Meanwhile on the east coast, they're finally starting to install EV charging options.

@Sherifazuhur @palestine @israel if it's true that Hamas is seizing humanitarian aid, would that, perhaps, complicate the topic?
