He says "several hundred thousand" docs will be released today, "and then over the next couple weeks, I expect several hundred thousand more."

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case.
The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant.
Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

It's especially egregious to start another fucking war over oil when other nations like China, India and the EU have been actively, and successfully, phasing out fossil fuels. Yes. America depends on gas-powered cars, its ingrained in our culture, but we haven't even made a real effort to switch.

“Climate action” is just another way to say “we want our beautiful complex planet to continue to be a good place to live, and to continue to be both beautiful and complex”. So much climate damage comes from assuming that Earth is simple, that it is easy to control and that it will bend to our will.
