If the US holds Venezuela, we will seize 17% of oil -- yesterday's technology. If China uses this precedent to take Taiwan, it will own 60% of semiconductors -- tomorrow's technology. See what happens when you elect evil & stupid at the same time?

This week, Professor James Hansen and colleagues published projections that the global temperature record could reach +1.7°C by 2027.
And if that number lands in your gut the way it landed in mine, good. It should.

The media need to stop beating their chests about how powerful our military is.
It's a point of pride when your country has a strong military that keeps the peace.
It's a source of shame when politicians turn your strong military into an international armed robbery gang.

We texted 1,000 Americans about U.S. actions in Venezuela. Here’s what they said.

America now has 935 billionaires with $8.1 trillion in collective wealth — a 20% increase from 2024.
Meanwhile, the bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 935 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

ICE is no longer arresting immigrants only. They are arresting anyone who films or speaks out. Sending them to concentration camps. I have been criticized for my analogy to 1930’s Germany. That is what we are witnessing.
