Trump’s goal is clear: Delay the trials until after the election, pull off an upset, then use the power of the White House to shut down the prosecutions or even pardon himself. We the voters must do our part to keep him from power.

"Multiple pastors tell me, essentially, the same story about quoting the Sermon on the Mount, parenthetically, in their preaching — 'turn the other cheek' — [and] to have someone come up after to say, 'Where did you get those liberal talking points?'" Moore revealed. "And what was alarming to me is that in most of these scenarios, when the pastor would say, 'I'm literally quoting Jesus Christ,' the response would not be, 'I apologize.' The response would be, 'Yes, but that doesn't work anymore. That's weak.'"

Awesome to see @IceCubesApp now allows editing of #TagGroups, a feature unique to the app.

My wish would be to have the app allow iCloud syncing so that settings, including Tag Groups, would be synced to Ice Cubes installations on all my devices. 🤞🏻

Judging by the reaction to the Barbie movie here (and knowing my classically boomer aunt) she was probably just oblivious to the subtext.

I want to ask my aunt if she was uncomfortable because she thought it was racist, or *because they pointed out the racism that actually exists*?

In an essay out today in the AGU journal Eos, @jeffcorbin, Meghan Duffy, @carlyziter and I discuss the urgent need to move beyond the "it's real, it's bad, it's us" approach to climate education. What is desperately needed instead are pathways towards climate action that engage and empower students, while helping to fight the immobility of climate despair.

“Donald Trump will do everything in his power – including roping in the House GOP, GOP electeds around the country, right-wing media, and MAGA World proxies – to turn his trials into absolute shitshows.”

A little girl asked her mother, 'Can I go outside and play with the boys?'
Her mother replied, 'No, you can't, boys are too rough.'
The little girl thought about it for a few moments and then asked,
'If I can find a smooth one, can I play with him?'

So, 2 ways to create fascism:
1. Corrupt the voting system
-or if that fails—
2. Just throw the elected out of office.
