Great time to have a president who wants to gut climate and science research and pretends climate change isn't real. 😑

This is a person who shouldn’t be trusted with a water pistol or a slingshot. The fact that he has the ability to launch a nuclear attack at any time for any reason is terrifying beyond words.

🧵On July 16, 1945, the U.S. conducted the first-ever nuclear explosion in New Mexico. This was not an empty desert, as some claim, it was home to Indigenous Peoples and other local communities. There was plant and animal life, and sacred sites. 🔗➡️icanw.org/80_years_later…

On July 16, 1945 the first nuclear bomb was detonated near Alamogordo, New Mexico. This is a retelling of the Trinity Test, woven entirely from words the Manhattan Project's protagonists published in the Bulletin. thebulletin.org/2025/07/in-the…

“Civil society” means all of us. You, me, your family and friends. We need to turn up the pressure. “We call on scientists, academics, civil society, and communities of faith to help create the necessary pressure on global leaders to implement nuclear risk reduction measures.”

NEW VIDEO: Mr. Rogers once saved PBS with nothing but his voice. This week, MAGA Republicans destroyed it—voting at 2AM to gut its funding and wipe out public media as we know it. This isn’t just budget politics. It’s cultural erasure. And it’s a warning.

This was Ukraine I knew. Endless fields everywhere you looked. Then Russia came to destroy, steal, rewrite it. I’ll never forgive that.

As president of the United States, trump should probably be focused on addressing other more urgent problems: theguardian.com/sport/2025/jul…

The risk of nuclear war is increasing. #Nuclearweapons spending is rising and arsenals are being modernized and expanded. But this group of experts and Nobel laureates has a plan to reduce risks (and there is a role for the public): usatoday.com/story/news/pol…

This clip with Peter Beinart will become historic. A voice of conscience in an era of inhumanity and insanity. "The blood is on our hands as Americans because it is our weapons that are responsible for those children starving to death."
