The only way we save our country is through our numbers.

Trump and MAGA don't have the majority, not even close.

Overwhelm them with numbers. Resist everywhere. They are too reckless, incompetent, and self-destructive.

Also, divide and conquer. Many fissures, especially around Epstein.

A policy solution that would not harm those most victimized by climate change: fees that price carbon honestly passed directly to the public.

Thank you. AI confirms. I didn't know this and I reckon many other citizens do not either.

With respect, are you not putting the cart before horse? Behavioral change will not happen *on a meaningful scale* until carbon-based energy is priced honestly.

It really can't be said enough: the goal of the "anti-woke" movement was always to destroy social norms against bigotry. And it worked. And there's a whole lot of purportedly "left" thinkers & commentators who helped it -- indeed, it couldn't have been done without them.

They should feel bad.

We watched the episodes on PBS, which requires a Passport subscription.
I could not watch it before sleep time because of the long-lasting anxiety it provoked. So well constructed and acted.

Stating the obvious: he doesn't believe RFK JR either. He appointed him to thank him for getting the alternative natural medicine cult to vote for him.

#AI "art" and video generation is horseshit.

AI #medical search - invaluable even now for patients and physicians - exponentially better than rabbit hole general searches in the past. Faster at getting to relevant finding specific to complex questions on pubmed. And it provides links to sources.

I suspect it has most to do with "conservative" news outlets (Fox etc.) not giving time to experts to counter RFK Jr's conspiracy assertions. I submitted this Opinion letter to my local paper, but it was not accepted.
