The Trump Administration is going against everything America has stood for and is now pushing to remove sanctions from Russia and put sanctions on the EU. It is doing everything possible to destroy NATO and all the alliances we have considered sacrosanct.

We are looking at WW III in the making.
Europe Sounds the Alarm as the United States Sides With Putin
While Russian drones target NATO allies and Ukraine’s president, Trump’s America abandons its commitments and openly embraces a strategy that weakens Europe and empowers the Kremlin.

The Trump admin has been quietly pressuring Europe to not seize the Russian billions for Ukraine. He fully intends to give it back to Russia and likely will find a way to profit himself.

Shame on America, and shame on Europe

The EPA is planning to weaken current regulations on HFCs — a common refrigerant and the fastest growing source of GHG emissions in world — and allow use for a longer period of time.

We’re opposing.

At a time when the world is facing record heat & wildfires, going backwards is not an option.

If you think the US is not going to start any new wars, guess again!

NO WAR with VENEZUELA.

Tell Congress!

And let's not forget that Trump just pardoned Juan Orlando Hernández, who assistant US attorney Jacob Gutwillig said had “paved a cocaine superhighway to the United States”.

If you're feeling restless waiting for the 2026 midterms, try watching the Tennessee special House election next Tuesday. It should be exciting.
A Democratic win in #TN07 next week would not only pick up a House seat for the Democrats, it would also show a crack in Trump's base.

@aftynbehn.bsky.social
You should be paying attention to Tennessee.

The congressional race in the state’s seventh congressional district, which includes Nashville, is where cracks in Donald Trump’s base are starting to show.

This could be an outlier, but it is hopeful.

If the 2026 midterm election were held today, 55% would vote for Democrats and 41% would vote for Republicatns. That's a 14% lead.

The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the
growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger
than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism:
ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any
controlling private power.

Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

If you want something useful to do, push for the one fix that actually changes outcomes. Tell your representatives to restore the staffing and funding that the Interior and Forest Service need to keep these places standing. Call or email and keep it simple.
