Here's Trump today on whether he thinks furloughed federal workers should receive back pay:

“For the most part, we’re going to take care of our people,” he said. “There are some people that really don’t deserve to be taken care of, and we’ll take care of them in a different way.”

I've lost count how many time Pam Bondi has refused to say 1) where the $50,000 is that Tom Homan accepted from undercover FBI agents in a bag of cash and 2) whether she will provide the judiciary committee with the recording of that exchange.

Bondi just personally attacking any senator who asks.

Today, Josh Hawley -- who voted to overturn the 2020 election after fanning the Big Lie that the election was stolen from Trump, the same lie that fueled the Jan. 6 insurrection that Hawley was egging on -- is outraged the FBI reportedly analyzed some GOP senators' phone records in its Jan. 6 probe.

Massachusetts Authors Against Book Bans

Share widely. Contact your electeds. Get this legislation over the finish line.

It's time for the MA legislature to pass a Freedom to Read bill that protects librarians + educators from harassment; and protects authors, creators, booksellers, + publishers from economic harm due to censorship. I support An Act Regarding Free Expression (H.3594/S.2328).

Tonight Portland, OR, members of @authorsabb.bsky.social gathered together to write postcards to librarians and school board members as part of Banned Books Week . . . but every week is a good week to take action to protect the freedom to read.

Photo by Makiia Lucier.

A postcard that says "Authors Against Book Bans, authorsagainstbookbans.com" is held in front of the camera. In the background, an author who's against book bans is filling out postcards at a table full of postcards and writing supplies. The author is wearing a blue shirt with blurry white writing.

Will I be the first to suggest the carbon offsets worked exactly as planned: they delayed real action for another 25 years

The Guardian @theguardian.com · 2d

Carbon offsets fail to cut global heating due to ‘intractable’ systemic problems, study says

Analysis of 25 years of evidence shows most schemes are poor quality and fail to lower emissions The failure of carbon offsets to cut planet-heating pollution is “not due to a few bad apples”, a review paper has found, but down to deep-seated systemic problems that incremental change will not solve. Research over two decades has found “intractable” problems that have made carbon credits in most big programmes poor quality, according to the study. While the industry and diplomats have made efforts to improve the system, it found much-awaited rules agreed at a UN climate summit last year “did not substantially address the quality problem”.
