No community should be forced to bear the weight of a system that profits from human suffering.

Private, for-profit prisons have no place in a fair and free democracy—and especially profiting off the suffering of an inhumane and undemocratic detention system.

Period.

I love this person for bringing obscure aquatic life to the masses (or at least the masses in the vicinity of these posters).

You go, friend!
One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.

1) Trump pardons a corrupt Dem
2) Jeffries makes excuses for the "thin" indictment
3) Cuellar files to run as a Dem
4) Trump squeals that his quid pro quo isn't being honored
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

Once again, and always: No. Just effing no.

There's always another letter to write.
Proposal to give 24 ac. of USFS land to a private ski resort sees movement thanks to Utah Senator Mike “Land Grab” Lee.

“S. 1860 — 119th Congress: Brian Head Town Land Conveyance Act.” www.GovTrack.us. 2025. December 6, 2025

@wilderness.org
A new bill by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) would give land in the Dixie National Forest away to a ski resort town without oversight or public input. If passed, this bill would set a dangerous precedent of rushing back-door public land transfers without evaluating impacts—incl wildlife habitat & wildfire

At no point during the five-year span that Monty Python's Flying Circus aired on the BBC, from October 1969 to December 1974, could the greatest comedic minds of their time come up with a skit more grotesquely absurd than Trump placing a fake peace-prize medal over his own head.

Yes. Raise a ruckus about this. This is our heritage and birthright.
National monuments don’t just protect the cultural and ecological resources within their boundaries. They are also instrumental in protecting sources of the water we drink.

31 national monuments are under threat. Tell your representatives to protect our public lands and drinking water.

The Mayor has budgeted $5 million for a ShotSpotter replacement for CPD.

You really could not have a clearer illustration of the choices between community resources vs state surveillance, and so far, as usual, the choice is state surveillance.

True. Why are we the core of local politics?
Over a lifetime, we have protested for the environment, for our rights, for justice. We saw some successes: ESA, EPA, Roe v Wade, ACA. We now see how fragile those were.
We're passionate, experienced, and pissed off.
Join us. We're better together.

41 minutes of watching two shipwrecked men trying to flip a boat and signaling for surrender/help before firing on them again reminds me of the 9.5 minutes Derek Chauvin knelt on George Floyd’s neck, in that it’s an agonizingly long time to be killing helpless people who clearly posed no threat.
