We have a plan to reverse global warming and be more prosperous, starting now, or any moment we can get the movement to get moving.

Stop eating meat.

It’s insane to me that we are here, when we have spent the past 50 years dooming. With reason.

60% of mammals are livestock, by weight.

70% of birds are poultry.

50% of Colorado river water grows cattle feed.

Massive fractions of oil burned are for livestock feed.

To reverse global warming fastest, plus compounding great benefits, stop eating meat.

Jared Huffman talked about his new book, No Prophets, with the celebrated Peter Coyote, today in Santa Rosa, sponsored by Copperfield’s Books.

Our exceptional Congressman, a Humanist, lays out the enduring need for separation of church and state with fire and humor.

Angie Coiro interviewed Rebecca Solnit at Kepler’s in Menlo Park.

Very good talk, based on Solnit’s new book, The Beginning Comes After the End.

That book begins auspiciously on our California coast — b.rad

Yes, Trump is mentally ill. But he still knows how to rally his worshipers. His battle cry that "SCOTUS is RIGGED!" speaks right to them. MAGArds will nod furiously along, enraged and embittered that ... someone has stacked SCOTUS.

The punchlines write themselves, and none of them are funny.

Hey Press Democrat — Showing a 2020 picture and caption of a Pieology pizza in your new restaurants openings article was not fair, in so many ways.

We miss our long-closed Pieology a lot, it was perfect. Now you’re rubbing it in !

Don't agree with Cato Inst on much. But:

Very glad they have quantified what has been obvious for years.
The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

Republican politicians who think that Minneapolis is a political problem are missing the point. It is a moral problem. But they are in so deep that they cannot see just how morally bankrupt they have become. They do not understand that we are as revulsed by their complicity as by Trump's cruelty.

This is a powerful and fundamental summary that we should hear every day from the leaders in our economy.

Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

FOLKS NEED TO REALIZE HOW HUGE THIS IS

For the first time in modern Texas history, Dems have candidates running in every state and federal race on the 2026 ballot.

That includes all congressional seats, every state House and state Senate race, plus statewide judicial and State Board of Education.
