Big Oil's climate lies are fueling the insurance affordability crisis — and the costs are falling on disaster survivors and residents.

A new bill from @scottwiener.bsky.social aims to make Big Oil pay. "We can’t allow Californians, our residents, our small businesses, to be left holding the bag."
New bill aims to allow California AG to sue oil companies for disaster costs
“We can’t allow Californians, our residents, our small businesses, to be left holding the bag,” said the author of the measure.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

My law firm intervened in every case DOJ has filed to gain access to states' sensitive voting data. So far we have won several and lost none. But this is going to be a long fight for free and fair elections.

I’m going to share some posts from amazing Wpost reporters who lost their jobs today. I’m regularly jealous of Nitasha’s reporting and know from my days at BuzzFeed that she is a wonderful and generous colleague.
My story on Elon Musk cutting safeguards at xAI is on the front page of today's @washingtonpost.com. I’m also among 100’s of reporters laid off. I absolutely loved my job my brilliant coworkers & the thrill of reporting @ the center of forces upending the world: AI & Silicon Valley’s political power

Early last year I approached Rep Gimenez with an offer to work together to protect immigrants in his district & mine. He rudely told me he had his own strategy & walked off.

Apparently his strategy was to do nothing for over a year to actually stop this.

Miami deserves better.
Gimenez: "We've been warning the administration about the enforcement that's been going on. We thought there should've been a course correction a long time ago, and now I guess it's gonna be forced on us by the Democrats. We should've been focusing on criminals and gang members, not grandmothers."

Substack is great but it ain’t ever bringing down a presidency, the billionaires gutting major media outlets damn sure understand this, newspapers like WAPO had an outsized role in saving democracy, now in a perverse way, its owner is helping to destroy USA. Boycott Amazon.

Judge Blackwell continues:

"Having what you feel are too many detainees, too
many cases, too many deadlines, and not enough
infrastructure to keep up with it all, is not a defense to
continued detention. If anything, it ought to be a warning
sign."

Just watched on CNN that Republican that was running for Governor in Minnesota and dropped out because he couldn’t look his kids in the eye with a straight face after watching what ICE was doing. Don’t ever lift him up again. He is a racist opportunist shit that supports ICE.
