“Politico reported that ‘Pentagon officials and their hawkish allies…are arguing to keep the status quo.’ It would take a significant push by Biden to reverse their plans. The Pentagon holds all the cards.”
The Pentagon wants to marginalize the President. Will they succeed? Officials and contractors who profit from our dangerously outdated nuclear posture hold all the cards. I explain how they’ve rigged the game in my latest @RStatecraft. responsiblestatecraft.org/20…

A failure of historic proportions, plus further indication that the system as it is will not disrupt itself.
I'm on my way home from #COP26, full of frustration and fury after reading the draft declaration. The world's powerful governments propose to do more to defend the fossil fuel industry than to defend life on Earth.

Good on ya kids…
BREAKING: @SenAmyKlobuchar was just confronted at a fundraising event by a group of water protectors who SHUT DOWN her speech.
When faced with Indigenous youth questioning her inaction on Line 3, she rolled her eyes, tried to interrupt, and eventually fled the stage. #StopLine3

People who are old have no right to limit the chances for survival of those who are young.
💥BREAKING💥The @350Pacific Climate Warriors are carrying the national flags of the Pacific nations to the plenary space inside #COP26 — to protest the fact that energy lobbyists are sabotaging climate outcomes. 🛢❌

4/ In the space of the awakened heart, nature rearranges itself and the miraculous becomes possible. Do not deny the darkness, but deny its power over you. Look at the darkness squarely in the eye, then see through it to the other side.mariannewilliamson.substack.…

3/ All of that good and reparative and regenerative is possible, when enough of us decide to change. In the words of Deepak Chopra,“It’s a minute before extinction.” But where the heart is aroused and the willingness is there, then a minute is more than long enough.

2/We can change from a dirty economy to a clean economy; we can change from a war economy to a peace economy; we can change from the tyranny of a soulless economic system to the liberating influence of economic forces driven by humanitarian concerns.

1/It will all work out if we decide to change. And if we do not decide to change, then it will not work out. In our resistance to change lies our greatest danger. In our willingness to change lies the hope for humanity’ future.

You mean they ignored the woman? I've never heard of such a thing.
A female scientist named Eunice Newton Foote warned back in 1856 that too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere could cause the Earth to warm. Global action on climate change came… 140 years later. trib.al/ri9sTa8
