We can tackle the climate crisis head-on with a new Civilian Climate Corps. The American Jobs Plan will invest $10 billion to put Americans to work conserving our public lands and waters, bolstering community resilience, and advancing environmental justice.

In one of the creepiest episodes on Russian state TV, propagandists and "experts" tonight compared opposition activists to "roaches" and "flies," adding that the thing to do with those is to "poison them."

Mountain climber with no rope plunges 1,000 feet in Alaska national park, officials say

Snip

Climbers were 17,200 feet high Monday when they saw another climber without a rope tumble, Alaska officials said.

The 31-year-old climber plunged nearly 1,000 feet in Denali National Park and Preserve. He was on Denali Pass, which has an elevation of at least 18,200 feet, according to the National Park Service.

Park officials rushed to the injured climber’s rescue, making it to him in under 30 minutes. A helicopter was already at a nearby basecamp surveying glaciers when officials received reports of the fall....

Ambulance paramedics gave Rawski “life-saving” medical care until a life flight helicopter could take him to a hospital in Anchorage. He was in critical condition, according to park officials.

Cleveland Meredith, charged with threatening to kill Pelosi and bringing guns + ammo to DC (but arriving too late on Jan. 6 to join the insurrection), will remain in jail, per newly unsealed (and partially redacted) opinion from Judge Amy Berman Jackson: https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/20790124/5-26-21-redacted-opinion-cleveland-meredith-detention.pdf






Replying to @ZoeTillman
Meredith's lawyer argued his threats weren't meant to be taken seriously; he wrote at one point: "LOL. I’m just having fun."

ABJ: "The problem with this argument, of course, is that defendant’s statements were not the least bit funny. No one was laughing out loud then or now."

Jackson did not come to play: "...six months later, the canard that the election was stolen is being repeated daily on major news outlets and from the corridors of power in state and federal government, not to mention in the near-daily fulminations of the former President"

Biden says that when George Floyd's daughter Gianna visited the White House on Tuesday, she said to him, "I'm really hungry, do you have any snacks?"

"My wife would kill me — we gave her some ice cream, she had some Cheetos, and I think she had some chocolate milk," he says
