USA seems to be in the midst of social collapse 2025.
berkeleyearth.org: USA +1.7C now but +3.8C by 2100.
Add +1C planet-wide every 25 years, even higher over terrain. Not pretty for humans.
Sun, Wind, ideas like MEER.org can help.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Tuesday - ICE agents used pepper spray to push through a crowd that blocked their vehicles as they checked IDs in a Somali neighborhood of Minneapolis.
The Trump administration is targeting this community and they know it.

Nearly 40% of newly minted billionaires this year received their wealth through inheritance.
This is the highest figure since UBS started releasing its annual billionaire wealth report in 2015.
Another reminder that the myth of the "self-made" billionaire is just that, a myth.
