How much money is being pumped into data centers in the Permian? Are they building them on top of old “plugged” wells? How much does it cost to relocate servers when one of those wells starts leaking? Ask the First Baptist Church in Grandfalls how that’s going for them. Follow me on @zombiewellz if you want updates.

My line was drawn years ago. Trump is vile. He’s not conservative. And MAGA is a cult.

Ossoff: "When you throw people off their health insurance and drive up their premiums and gut the Medicaid program in order to cut taxes for the wealthiest people in the country, that's also corruption. That's the corruption that's endemic in our political system and predates Trump."

OMG, this is BAD! Everything is 'costed' but 'little' is VALUED? When explorers arrived, about 30 million bison 'roamed' freely! Sadly, that fell to 1,000 by 1900! Raise a ✋ if you agree the 'Yellowstone' bison MUST be protected, NOW! 🙋‍♂️ #StopTheCull #ProtectBisonNOW 👍

For the first time in American history, the DOJ has demanded confidential voter information from all 50 states and DC—compiling it into a national database to surveil and purge voters. That's unconstitutional and illegal. So we sued. citizensforethics.org/legal-action/l…

I convened community members, advocates, and elected leaders in DC to express our strong opposition to any wall or interference in Big Bend. More on our efforts, including restrictions in government funding legislation, covered by Spectrum Austin.

South Bay San Diego communities have been desperately begging for help for years. They are being poisoned. The crisis is escalating--see figure below using our @airborne_ucsd public data. Our data keep proving these communities deserve protection NOW. Worst night since 2024 happened on April 21 — 83% of nighttime hours above California's own H₂S standard. 4,494 ppb spikes while children sleep. At least 4× the standard every single night in April. Twelve schools within 1.5 miles. Zero protection. Kids are often forced to stay inside. @GovPressOffice @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom has refused every single invitation to visit the river hotspot where this is happening. He has refused repeatedly to act. Would he still be waiting if this community weren't 97% low-income and Hispanic? Using the poor excuse that the original source is international speaks volumes about who he supports--and shows a complete lack of empathy for his own residents in California. Newsom wants to become our next President--why? So he can continue these injustices across the US at a time when we need everyone supported more than ever before??? I will be joining @joemoeller44 @NEWSMAX tomorrow to talk about exactly this.

The irony of posting about Earth Day just a week after we lost a vote to save the Boundary Waters isn’t lost on me. It’s a tough loss that we’re still processing. But today, of all days, should remind us why these special places are worth fighting for.   The Boundary Waters have some of the cleanest water that you will find anywhere in this country. Endless lakes and streams filled with bass and pike and trout. Completely untouched nature and only accessible via canoe. Allowing this copper-sulfide mine in the headwaters of the BWCA will threaten all of that, but the fight isn’t over. It looks different, yes, but the mission is still fundamentally the same: These waters are the birthright of every single one of us, and it’s our job to protect them from the corporate greed of Antofagasta. Not this mine. Not this place.   This coalition of Tribal Nations, outdoorsmen, conservationists, public lands enthusiasts and just your average Minnesotans who have been lucky enough to visit this place will still fight against this mine. And anyone who is feeling defeated should look at the comments on Pete Stauber’s posts last week to get a sense of just how mad we are and how hard we are going to continue fighting. Because the Boundary Waters have such special meaning. It’s a sacred place, and we will never stop defending it. 🛶🫎🇺🇸

@Cernovich In Texas, there was no vote at all. A few 70 year old white men took away rights all by themselves.

51% of voters can take away 100% of the rights of 49% of the voters. Democracy.

Repeat after me. A habitable planet is more important than the profits of a few fossil fuel companies. Pass it on. #ActOnClimate

Dr. Gupta: Today, the American Lung Association released its annual State of the Air report. What did it find? Children across the country are being disproportionately affected by ozone, particulate matter, air pollution, and other sources—and things are only going to get worse. The Environmental Protection Agency under Trump is no longer fulfilling its basic duties to protect our air and water quality. Smokestacks can now continue to pollute without accountability, and vehicle emissions are no longer being properly regulated. What does that mean for children? Over half of children across the country are living in zip codes with poor air quality—not just during wildfire season, but year-round. That’s bad for developing lungs, which are uniquely vulnerable to pollution. This is not a good trend line. It could be devastating for an entire generation. And it’s not just children. Nearly 44% of Americans—about 150 million people—are impacted by at least one source of air pollution. And it’s only going to get worse.

RFK Jr ; "Tell me one piece of misinformation I've said about vaccines" CHALLENGE ACCEPTED You said polio vaccine killed more than it saved You said HPV vaccine causes cancer You said Covid vaccines are the "deadliest ever" You said vaccines cause autism ALL WRONG

New: Covid-19 vaccines roughly halved the chances a US adult would need to visit the ER or be hospitalized with their infections last fall and winter, according to two sources familiar with the findings of a new study. But you won’t hear about it from the agency that led the research: the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The current head of the CDC, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, who’s also director of the US National Institutes of Health, blocked the publication of those findings in the CDC’s flagship journal, the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, according to the sources. cnn.com/2026/04/22/hea…

McGovern: SNAP provides about $2 per person per meal. We’re told there are more cuts to SNAP coming in reconciliation. We have 46 million people in this country who are hungry, and they don’t seem to give a shit, and it’s disgusting. We ought to be able to end hunger in this country. It’s a political condition. We have the money. They spent $60 billion on the war in Iran.

Trump’s Project 2025 gutted the agencies that provide warning and relief during natural disasters. The GOP aided his efforts. This #EarthDay we're reminded that home is worth caring for, and those who exploit it are not.

Sen. Warnock to RFK: "I think you're dangerous to the American public and you ought to be fired. And if you're not fired, you ought to have the decency to resign. You're way in over your head."

George Washington believed that vaccinating his troops against smallpox was the key to winning the Revolutionary War and our independence. A founding father from 250 years ago had a better understanding of science and military readiness than Pete Hegseth.

Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer. Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul. Oh well. Good job Virginia!!
