Forrest Smith, the only National Park Service engineer cleaning up abandoned oil and gas wells, lost his contract, leaving 93 orphaned wells on park lands unmanaged. These leaking wells release methane and toxins, threatening human health and the environment.

He Alone Tracked Leaky Oil Wells in National Parks. He Was Let Go.

Big Oil spent nearly $450M backing Trump & Republican candidates last year.

Now, during one of the longest government shutdowns in history, Senate Republicans voted to gut a policy protecting millions of acres in Alaska from oil drilling.

Talk about a return on investment.

People who want to help democracy, no worries if you can't go out and get tear-gassed (kids, job, disability). There's indoor work too! You can be the record-keeper of all that Mike Johnson says he doesn't know. (Today: Trump's pardon of a crypto billionaire). Even a Google sheet is a fine start. 1/

RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.

Trump’s USDA has emailed grocery retailers warning them not to give discounts to SNAP recipients who will not be receiving assistance this month.

While we’re on this topic, it’s a great time to donate to a local food bank if you can.

Diaper banks also need help if you have one nearby.

From Brian Taylor Cohen: Trump orders new investigations and prosecutions to “prove” the 2020 election was “rigged.”
He can't stand that he lost the election so he is trying to rewrite history.
The problem is if he shows that he won the election, then he is in office right now illegally with 22nd .

Patrick S. Tomlinson @stealthygeek.bsky.social · 6d

Speaker Mike Johnson is a gay man who "adopted" a black male teenager while he was a 20's single and then "married" a woman who ran a gay conversion camp.

Mike Johnson is gay. He is a gay man who hates himself for being gay.

This is not even an open secret. It's just an objective, observable fact.

President of Nigeria: “Nigeria stands firmly as a democracy governed by constitutional guarantees of religious liberty.”

NIGERIA STANDS FIRMLY AS A DEMOCRACY GOVERNED BY CONSTITUTIONAL GUARANTEES OF RELIGIOUS LIBERTY.
Since 2023, our administration has maintained an open and active engagement with Christian and Muslim leaders alike and continues to address security challenges which affect citizens across faiths and regions.
The characterisation of Nigeria as religiously intolerant does not reflect our national reality, nor does it take into consideration the consistent and sincere efforts of the government to safeguard freedom of religion and beliefs for all Nigerians.
Religious freedom and tolerance have been a core tenet of our collective identity and shall always remain so. Nigeria opposes religious persecution and does not encourage it.
Nigeria is a country with constitutional guarantees to protect citizens of all faiths.
Our administration is committed to working with the United States government and the international community to deepen understanding and cooperation on protection of communities of all faiths.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR
President
Federal Republic of Nigeria
