what is happening to this place
Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?
It's over.

Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

Annie Farmer, who delivered testimony that helped convict Maxwell, expressed concern that Trump's DOJ would "use orders issued by the Court as a public excuse to continue to withhold crucial information," according to a footnote of the newly public letter.

It would be best for everyone if SECDEF stopped talking about this

In the meantime, though, we should all understand what we are barreling toward:
The focus is on “drug boat” strikes, but there are competing justifications for escalating military action against Venezuela — “cartels”, oil, bravado, liberation

But the war on Venezuela isn’t about those things

It’s about redefining—diminishing—American power

Empathy + Action = A Better World
Let's start this snowy Sunday with a feel good story.

The story is about a wrong number, the awesome lady who answered the call, and understood the assignment presented to her by karma.

Answer the jail call. Sometimes it's a wrong number, and they need kindness, not hostility.

As the Trump administration clumsily moves toward an unnecessary and irresponsible and narcissistic war with Venezuela, I want to take a brief moment to offer this sentiment to those who voted for him over VP Harris because they believed it would keep us out of unnecessary wars:

FUCK. YOU.

So far, Trump has pardoned:

Changpeng Zhao (founder, Binance) - pled guilty to money laundering. Facilitated millions in transactions for terrorist organizations such as Hamas.

Ross Ulbricht (founder of the Silk Road) - the dark web Costco of illegal drugs.

Bookmark this for the investigations to come: the Trump team’s boat bombings trace back to at least 2018. That’s when White House officials asked me & others about whether they could do something like this.

We said it was illegal then. Now they’ve done it anyway.

More emboldened than this?
Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.
