A heads-up from @billmckibben.bsky.social: "One way of summing up this moment is to say that the endangerment finding & the politics of climate are puny in the face of physics. We’re going to see that physics in action in the next 24 months, and it will drive many changes... some of them political"
An El Niño is brewing.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Inside the worker-led push to get ICE out of Google:
Google is stifling anti-ICE speech in the workplace as 1,200 employees call on the company to cut ties
The search giant has made it harder and riskier to protest its policies. Workers are still fighting back. Plus: A community takes down a data center, QuitGPT, and the 5 worst Super Bowl AI ads.

What an embarrassingly pathetic bunch of losers.
Rep Mark Alford (R-MO) says House Rs are "investigating" Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show & talking with FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr. Alford says he didn't watch the whole thing & also doesn't know Spanish but suspects it might have been "much worse than the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction"

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

“What I try to do is remember that the ultimate aim of an authoritarian movement is to erode our will to resist...Because as long as we’re still resisting, refusing and ridiculing them - all of which are essential - it’s costly for them.”

In Minnesota, ICE agents are illegally racially profiling residents, drawing weapons during arrests, claiming people’s citizenship documents are fake, and leaving people with long-lasting injuries.
There is no excuse for Democrats to continue funding these jackbooted thugs.

Rep. Dan Meuser: "They're asking for no masks. Why? We can identify them. Officials can identify them, their bosses can. They only people who perhaps can't are the general public -- the mob."
