JUST POSTED. How Trump's pardons of Stone and Manafort are the endgame of the four-year-long cover-up of his own wrongdoing and possible criminality in the Trump-Russia scandal. From @dfriedman33 and me. Please read, RT, and share.

Never forget how outrageous this is:
Senate GOP blocked Merrick Garland 237 DAYS before election & said American people should choose next justice
Now they’re confirming Amy Coney Barrett 8 DAYS before Nov 3 when 60 MILLION already voted

I was an Iron Range state rep during the Obama years. Biden & Obama’s COS both personally visited. Taconite mines were operating at full capacity at the end of Obama’s term when you took office. Now they’re not. When will you and @PeteStauber reopen KeeTac & get ppl back to work?

Outrage from D.C. Episcopal bishop: “I was not given even a courtesy call that they would be clearing with tear gas so they could use one of our churches as a prop, holding a Bible, one that declares that God is love and when everything he has said & done is to enflame violence."

— “If she wasn’t my daughter I’d date her”
— “African countries are shithole nations”

Every reporter should ask the governor about this tweet and then why the armed civilians in the mall did not do what he claims more guns would do, which is prevent more gun deaths. – at Brooklyn, NY

Here's a great analysis of how climate change is shifting weather patterns during California fire seasons. The data is crystal clear. #WoolseyFire #CampFire
This year, like 2017, California has had an unusually hot & dry fire season. Most of the largest and most destructive wildfires in CA history have happened under such conditions. Climate change is making this situation worse.

.@JaneLubchenco has urged the scientific community to focus on the growing importance of public engagement in a "post-truth" world, which she says will require a shift in culture at universities, research institutions, & gov't science agencies. aip.org/fyi/2018/scientists-…
