In #Okinawa, coastal fishermen now farm #coral, restoring #reefs like planting trees in a forest. With #ocean temperatures rising, half the world’s coral reefs have already vanished. These farmers are fighting back, one fragment at a time.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Lest we forget what led up to these half brained ideas about tariffs. A must watch-
Like all of us - confidence is down, investments pummeled, all of us waiting for republicans to show spine and resist Trump. Have we had enough wilnning to start impeachment proceedings?

Farmers should receive no exemption from Trump’s tariff war. David Frum writes: “First, farmers voted for Trump by huge margins. In America’s 444 most farm-dependent counties, Trump won an average of 77.7 percent of the vote—nearly two points more than Trump scored in those same counties in 2020.”

Virginia’s unemployment claims have skyrocketed, jumping 81% compared to this time last year.

Va House Republicans are willing to sabotage Virginians’ livelihoods and our economy just to prove their loyalty Trump and Musk.

Ugh. The American story has retrograded itself with conflict and misinformation. Facts no longer matter so nothing can proceed. Take a look and see what you think:

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
