We’re far from done. The corruption and rot run deep right now. But those fighting back are making progress. We can turn back this tide and help move the country forward, into a stronger, more stable place than it’s ever been. It will be slow; there will be setbacks. Keep going.

Does his resignation coming on the day the Epstein files are due to be released a good sign? I noticed a huge change in his demeanor after he got to see the actual files… conscience getting in the way? Tired of covering up for a nest of pedophiles, perhaps?

The US government called NCAR a “stronghold for left-wing climate lunacy” which is a wild thing to say during the 2nd hottest year on record, in the middle of horrific west coast storms and flooding, in a year that saw wildfire-red skies and hurricanes devastating Jamaica, Asheville and more
NCAR is quite literally our global mothership.
Everyone who works in climate and weather has passed through its doors and benefited from its incredible resources.
Dismantling NCAR is like taking a sledgehammer to the keystone holding up our scientific understanding of the planet.
Unbelievable.

There's no point in "debating" gun control - it's past time to just implement it. You cannot debate gun people - they won't move an inch, ever.
Did the Right "debate" us re: abortion? No, they just gained power and rammed their agenda down the nation's throat.
We should do the same with guns.
