"What we should remember…is that eugenicists, when they were called racist in the 1930s and 1940s, their response was 'I'm not racist,'" says writer Ibram X. Kendi. "When Jim Crow segregationists…were called racist, their response was 'I'm not racist.'" n.pr/31NHCPo

This is incorrect. Trees killed by insects do not increase wildfire intensity except for a short period of time during the red needle phase.

This is not a healthy forest. This is what @realDonaldTrump, @SecretarySonny and I refer to when we talk about removing dead and dying timber. These gray trees were killed by a beetle infestation and now are an added risk for fire. (Helena NF in MT)

It’s so fitting.

As if this entire presidency couldn’t be more bizarre... Today, Trump boarded Air Force One with toilet paper stuck to his shoe.

I’m confident that, together, they’ll strengthen this country we love by restoring opportunity, repairing our alliances and standing in the world, and upholding our fundamental commitment to justice, fairness, responsibility, and the rule of law. But first, they need our votes.

Oh wow. “Kelly was irate... [he] called around to Republicans on Capitol Hill and gave them the go-ahead to speak out against Trump.”

Per 3 sources, Kelly privately lobbied congressional Republicans to rebuke Trump publicly for Putin presser, my latest: vanityfair.com/news/2018/07/t…

UPDATE: 48 senators now support the Keep Families Together Act. We're making progress, but we still need Republicans to join. If you're represented by a Republican senator, tell them to support S.3036. #KeepFamiliesTogether

Presumably, McConnell knew about Russian interference in the 2016 US election at the time that he refused a vote on Merrick Garland, March 16, 2016. He knew about the Russians by early March, and didn’t tell the FBI. He’s got to be under investigation. nymag.com/daily/intellig…

If pundits tells you something is true, and you don’t have the critical thinking skills to evaluate their statements, then you are putty in their hands, as they shape your world view to their will.
