The DNC Chairman just said climate change “threatens our universe.”
I guess Eric Swalwell is tomorrow night?
Marianne is railing against the false god of multinational corporations in favor of the true god of healing crystals
CNN chyron:

Beto O’Rourke
Former U.S. Representative
“Ask yourself how a person like Donald Trump ever got close to the Oval Office.” — Mayor Pete

Okay I asked myself, and myself said: Y’all nominated Hillary.
I think we can all agree that we were really really really looking forward to the half hour throw down between Bernie Sanders and John Delaney
Oh hell yeah the Beto-Bullock fight that I’ve always dreamed of
Bernie Sanders claims that Jake Tapper’s question about whether Medicare for All will raise taxes on the middle class is a “Republican talking point”
Marianne Williamson:

Reasoned Pragmatist
“This is just the fundamental nonsense of government” is a Big Mood.
“Taking the Koch Brothers out of Montana” is not a sentence I’ve heard before.
I might not know what a sentence is.
“Depoliticize The Supreme Court With Structural Reform” is a great way to politicize the Supreme Court further.
I’m interested in the wisdom of comparing your constitutional amendment proposals to prohibition of alcohol.
Beto O’Rourke says people should vote for him because he would put Texas in play, despite losing to Ted Cruz.
John Delaney on why Democratic health care proposals shouldn’t ban private health insurance: “When we passed Social Security, we didn’t make pensions illegal.”
“All this wonkiness won’t deal with the dark psychic force...”
— Marianne 2020
NAFTER
“I don’t care how old you are — I care about your ****vision****.”
Marianne Williamson
is Hot Girl Summer IRL
— @SaysSimonson
Mood.
NEW: Democrats talked about alot tonite: the economy, taxes, climate, guns, health care, foreign policy, & the dark psychic force. But a week after his testimony, they didn’t even mention Mueller, the man who for two years was supposed to bring down Trump.

My final thought on Marianne Williamson is that Republicans put a troll into the White House last time and now might troll a real life female wizard into the White House this time

Another fun math problem, this one from physics professor @DeanAstumian:

230 - 220 x 0.5 = 5!

Fact Check: True
230 - 220 x 0.5 = 5! PROOF

230 - 220 x 0.5 = ?
230 - (220 x 0.5) = ?
230 - 110 = ?
120 = ?

120 = 5! becuz 5! = 5*4*3*2*1 = 120
It’s a play on words
(a play on numbers?)

DNC Chairman just claimed that in the 1930s no one said “sorry, we’re full” — actually the U.S. under FDR rather infamously kept out Jewish refugees fleeing Nazism in Europe.
DNC Chairman just talked about a baby in Senator Tom Harkin’s family born premature at only 1.3 (?) pounds but survived — and somehow this is an argument ***for*** the pro-abortion Democratic Party.
“The opposite of Donald Trump is an Asian man who likes math.” #YangGang

NEW: Mueller bizarrely said “I don’t know” when asked if the Trump campaign was involved in hacking the Clinton campaign’s emails & even claimed that question fell outside his investigation, despite it literally being the entire point of his investigation.
washingtonexaminer.com/news/shock-com…
I cannot emphasize enough how little sense this answer from Mueller makes.
Here's the video where Mueller is confused by a basic question: Did the Trump campaign help Russia w/ hacking DNC emails? Mueller says "I don't know" & claims the question falls outside his investigation, despite it being the purpose of his investigation.

1) Recap of last night's democratic debate:

The Chairman of the Democratic National Committee funneled four pots of coffee before taking the stage and nearly has a heart attack while screaming about the republicans.
2)The quote of the night is already, "Climate change threatens our universe."
Never change, Tom Perez... Never change.

The moderators are introduced.
We have three hours of tonight's debate featuring ten candidates talking for seven minutes each divided into segments of four
3) I'm already confused.

ONE?! Only one of these jobbers has dropped since the last debate? How is that possible? I'm looking directly at you, Beto.
The national anthem is sung and shockingly, all the candidates remained standing and no one took a knee.

Here's a brief summary of some of the our Australian #climate extremes research since 2013, a year that has nothing to do with any particular events, government or ideology
Australia's then record hot 2012/2013 summer was made substantially more likely because of climate change agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
Night time temperature increasing faster than day time temperature, a key fingerprint of climate change, though this feature is not well modelled agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

THREAD| Draft of the #Climate Change Act, presented by (@bmu) this week: The proposal is a framework law, featuring elements from international acts, e.g. from UK (@theCCCuk). In contrast to the German Climate Action Plan 2050, it will be legally binding. #Klimaschutzgesetz
2| The framework law includes emission reduction targets, defines CO2 budgets for each sector, and clarifies responsibilities, as well as review, transparency & sanctioning mechanisms. Implementation measures for each sector will be detailled in 2030 programmes, due in Mar 2019.
3| Progress will be supported by an independent advisory group of 7 experts. Focus is on reaching the 2030 CO2 reduction targets, but the draft works towards at least 95% reduction by 2050. The remaining 5% to reach #netzero could be reached through compensation policies.

Just returned from Bangkok, where nations made little progress towards finalising the Paris agreement on climate change that aims to limit global temperature rises over the next 80 years.

It was my first @UN #climate change rodeo and there were a few things I wasn't aware of
Under Paris, countries agreed to a fairly detailed set of promises to keep global temperature rises under 2C by 2100.

It was the first time all nations - both developed and developing economies - signed up to the same set of climate rules. But they weren't binding
Parties gave themselves in effect 3 years to come up with a text agreed by everyone, ratified, and translated into national law on a state-by-state basis. The idea is the accord isn't legally binding, but the rulebook it provides could be on a national level

Late last night veteran #climate journalist @Revkin asked some sharp questions about @Sierra_Magazine’s “The Case for Climate Reparations,” spurred by an appreciative post from NYC Chief Resilience Officer @dzarrilli. Here’s my response …
My essay is only concerned with climate change-related damages in the US spurred, as I argue, by US actors like the oil majors. I could’ve written about Peruvian villagers suing a German energy giant & melting glaciers in the Andes, but that’s beyond the scope of my article.
So I had to identify extreme weather events in the US. As NOAA has reported, 2017 was the most destructive year on record for “natural” disasters. See this tracker ncdc.noaa.gov/billions/summa…

Good questions @RedsforNamesake. If confronting #climate change is your priority, it is imperative to ramp up carbon-free energy asap.

1. NJ will now ramp up renewable energy from 13% in 2017 and 20% by 2020 under old RPS to 35% by 2025 & 50% by 2030. Impressive leadership.
2. To ensure that this new clean energy replaces fossil fuels and contributes to #climate mitigation goals, NJ's new laws also make payments to ensure the continued operation of 3 South Jersey nuclear reactors that currently supply 31% of the state's electricity consumption.
2. Cont.: That measure is essential and ensures that nearly all of the new clean energy growth over the next 12 years builds on top of the fossil-free foundation provided by the state's existing nuclear plants.
