Fun for me too! @michaeloburns
Talking to @marwilliamson was so fun. Not only does she have good policies, she loves Bob Dylan, Etta James, and Tolstoy.

Every once in a while I think what might have been had @SCOTUS allowed Florida to count its votes. (2000 was the election that was actually stolen.)
The decision at #COP28 to finally recognize that the climate crisis is, at its heart, a fossil fuel crisis is an important milestone. But it is also the bare minimum we need and is long overdue. The influence of petrostates is still evident in the half measures and loopholes included in the final agreement. Fossil fuel interests went all out to control the outcome, but the passionate work of millions of climate activists around the world inspired and motivated delegates from many nations to loosen the industry’s grip. Whether this is a turning point that truly marks the beginning of the end of the fossil fuel era depends on the actions that come next and the mobilization of finance required to achieve them. We must ask ourselves how much longer will the world have wait before all nations summon the political will to overcome these narrow special interests and act on behalf of the future of humanity. It is up to all of us to hold our leaders accountable to their promise to transition away from fossil fuels once and for all.

President Biden is beginning to see this but beginning to see it is not enough. He must stop supporting Netanyahu‘s madness. We will not get to peace by continuing this war. 2/3

The Israeli bombardment of Gaza is feeding the double-headed monster of hatred and fear. It is creating horrifying chaos that will haunt both Israelis and Palestinians for years. 1/3

Private companies should not own public utilities. No one should make a profit on things a community needs in order to thrive. Our forty year orgy of privatization must give way to an appropriate balance between individual economic interests and a concern for the common good.
Pennsylvania passed a law incentivizing private companies to buy publicly-owned water systems. Now residents are seeing their water bills skyrocket. One local official put it bluntly during a hearing today: "People should see privatization for what it really is — a scam."

Sounds right to me.
UAW President Shawn Fain has been talking to non-union autoworkers across the country. Toyota workers told him that instead of paying them well the company set up a food bank. It's time to unionize the whole auto industry.

The college loan debt should be forgiven completely because it should never have existed. It's the product of a predatory, economically unholy alliance of government/lenders/banks that thwarts the dreams of our young, setting people up for misery who should be entering the most creative and joy filled time of their lives. The system is immoral, unjust, and it's got to go. #CancelStudentDebt
