48 years ago today, Three Mile Island experienced a partial meltdown of Unit 2- the worst accident in US nuclear energy history. The resulting cleanup took 13 years and cost over $900 billion. #nuclearpower #nucleardisaster #threemileisland #nuclearenergy

San Francisco shows out with a message to Trump: "NO ICE NO WARS NO LIES NO KINGS"

@ryangrim @triofrancos Idiotland

The number of obvious lies in this from Rubio suggests he’s feeling actual pressure. He claims here Cuba wants oil for free and the U.S. isn’t blocking it. Not true. Cuba buys oil. Mexico and Russia can use this clip to justify selling oil to Cuba.

No Kings proves the size of a protest is meaningless if there are no policy demands and direct threats to power. This was a parade to funnel people from the red capitalist party to the blue capitalist party to ensure the source of our problems, capitalism, remains unthreatened.

The Bay doesn’t bow. 👑 ❌ We’re marching through SF from the Embarcadero to City Hall alongside millions nationwide saying NO to kings, NO to ICE, NO to war. The streets are OURS today. 🌉 ✊ #NoKings

On Tuesday, Mar 31 at 2 PM PT, I'll discuss the "record shattering" heat that occurred in March and the unprecedented collapse of Western snowpack it caused near what would normally be the seasonal peak. Plus: a brief cooler and wetter reprieve to come! youtube.com/live/kk55DnUZi…

Wars For Oil and Words from the Urban Provocateur Mike Davis Our urban world is super-heating, super-storming, with the U.S. super-regime-changing with doses of violence and destruction. The late Marxist urban historian suggested a better way forward. jackeidt.substack.com/p/wars-for-oil…

We have so far spent 10 billion dollars to replace Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei. Tallying up the loss of equipment, including the THAAD batteries and money to Israel, we will have spent enough to solve homelessness in the United States for a year plus. The US government bombed schools, hospitals, refineries, desalination facilities to make life unlivable for everyone in Iran while leaving the rest of us to sink further into poverty. Every war the Empire fights is a war against YOU. What are you going to do about it?

Lots of buzz online about an upcoming major March heatwave for the American SW & California. And in this case, it does indeed appear increasingly likely than an extremely anomalous and even record-breaking heatwave may envelop much of the SW about a week from now.
