I've had a forty year career working with people whose lives are in trouble, and too many are in trouble now. Chronic economic anxiety has become a feature, not a bug, of the American experience ... yet the system continues to maintain the injustices that make the suffering inevitable.

When someone does question the powerful, the news media that is owned by those in power then come after the questioner.

Our first Firelight Chat will explore what’s happening with the Writer’s Strike. The situation is a perfect embodiment of a great American drama: economic injustice toward Americans whose work deserves dignity and security, and their righteous pushback through unionized activity. The Writers Strike is a story within a story, and who better to tell it than storytellers themselves.

The trajectory we're on now will lead to a hellish future for our children and our children's children. We must disrupt the fossil fuel industry NOW.
As president I will declare a climate emergency, initiating a mass mobilization for a just transition from a dirty to a clean economy.
I will cancel the Willow Project. I will approve no new oil drilling permits. It's time to ramp down, not keep ramping up, fossil fuel extraction.
A few weeks ago, I wrote about how pervasive and un-quarantinable wildfire smoke has become. Re-upping today, as smoke from Canada blankets the U.S. northeast. 60% of the smoke impact of American wildfire comes outside the state where the fire is. (1/x) nytimes.com/2023/05/17/opini…

I agree. Time to pull the plug on Cop City.
BREAKING: Georgia's top newspaper just posted a stunning expose of the many official lies about the burgeoning cost of the "Cop City" police center. The official narrative is officially collapsing.
Time to pull the plug.

Great to see the people of Atlanta - and others - standing up in resistance to Cop City.
BREAKING: absolute *chaos* ensuing in Atlanta, as the city council decides whether to replace a historic forest with “Cop City.”
Revolution is in the air. Windows are shaking. Politicians are quaking. The whole world is watching.
