Welcome to Day 1374.
Today in one sentence: Kamala Harris called Trump a fascist, saying "the American people deserve better, and they deserve a president who is focused on solutions, not sitting in the Oval Office plotting their revenge and retribution"; Trump vowed to "fire" Special Counsel Jack Smith – who brought two federal indictments against him – "within two seconds” of taking office; a former model accused Trump of groping her in 1993 at Trump Tower after Jeffrey Epstein introduced them; the 60-year-old man suspected of shooting at an Arizona Democratic National Committee office three times over the last two months had over 120 guns, over 250,000 rounds of ammunition, and a grenade launcher in his home; and the world is on course for a “catastrophic” temperature rise of more than 3C above pre-industrial levels – twice the goal set by the Paris agreement.

"Catastrophic". And we've known this was coming for longer than most of us have been alive.

#5 except that temp change is exponential, and humans prefer a relatively narrow range of temps (just look at what is considered “room temp”) - and permafrost isn’t so perma anymore. There are a lot of variables that aren’t being accounted for in the older models - this train has done derailed.

Conservatives are a plague.

Gee, what is the common thread behind all these deplorable acts? It couldn't possibly be the further slide to the right that conservatives have been embracing, could it? /smh
