Yesterday, I met with a 12-year-old boy in Oxnard, CA. His mom and dad have been fieldworkers for over 20 years. ICE agents snatched his parents from the fields and left this boy alone with no clue when heโ€™ll see them again. A 6th grader.

If you're heading to a protest tomorrow, it's important to know your rights. Consult this information from the ACLU. Be peaceful. Be safe. Be careful. Be strong.

Oh look, Trump Administration frantically trying to call back USAGM employees to work the Voice of Americaโ€™s Farsi language service. More evidence the Trump Administrationโ€™s actions were stupid and harmed America.

Itโ€™s not just the economic toll that ICE raids have over our city โ€” itโ€™s the human toll. Children not knowing when their parents will come back. Parents no knowing if theyโ€™ll be safe at work. Our service members here for no reason. These raids must end.

It turns out conventional power plants, not renewables, were to blame for the recent blackouts in Spain. Spanish grid operator: "Had conventional power plants done their job in controlling the voltage there would have been no blackout"๐Ÿ˜ณ Another L for the anti-renewables folks!
