Please watch.
I *almost* feel sorry for this well-paid Trump-fascist apologist
The long awkward pause(s) are quite 'telling'.. no?
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

I've been back in the graveyard today, squatting amongst the damp moss with a pair of forceps and my macro lens trying to get the best possible photo of Atheniella delectabilis. These are truly tiny. Here are the results. #fungi #fungifriends

THE MONSTER IS REAL
Don't leave your kids alone with the #ClimateCrisis !👹

None of the world's major economies have a climate plan that meets their obligations under the 2015 Paris Agreement.

This is of course excluding huge parts of our emissions & aspect of equity. Not even then are we on track.

Hans Christian Andersen's tale of the Emperor's New Clothes is just as valid today as it was 188 yrs ago

From policy makers to mitigation modellers (IAMs), business leaders to celebrities, we have fallen for a tale weaved from "fairy dust"… & emissions just keep on rising

How would it feel to wake every morning knowing that you were here to help all life to flourish? That as a species, we could still become self-conscious nodes in the web of life, to act for the good of all?

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

A significant proportion of Tories and Reform supporters are supporters of a genocidal Israel that has killed over 70,000 innocent people including many thousands of children.
Polling shows more Britons now 'anti-Israel' than 'pro'
YouGov's polling shows that of all the parties, it's Labour's stance on Israel which is the least clear and the most off putting to voters

Russia wouldn't need to invade if Fascist Farage ever got into power.
He'd invite Putin in.

Yet the Tories told us Corbyn's socialism would mean "Reds under the bed".
Such cynical lies.

And would Farage's flag-waving thugs fight Russia?
No, they're just cowardly racist bullies

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
