US Atty Justin Herdman's comments on OH cases re: political violence:
"Now let me speak generally to those who are advocates for white supremacy, or white nationalism.  I am talking directly to you."
"The Constitution protects your right to speak, your right to think, and your right to believe.
If you want to waste the blessings of liberty by going down a path of hatred and failed ideologies, that is your choice."
"Threatening to kill Jewish people, gunning down innocent Latinos on a weekend shopping trip, planning and plotting to perpetrate murders in the name of a nonsense racial theory, sitting to pray with God-fearing people who you execute moments later...
"...those actions don’t make you soldiers, they make you criminals.  Law enforcement doesn’t go to war with cowards who break the law, we arrest them and send them to prison."
Note: white nationalists are cowards.

When I was a kid, every earth science class I took, all I heard was "Save the Rainforests."
I can't fathom sometimes (operative word) that now, I'm 33 and here we are. Always seemed adults in the room had reverence for the rainforests and understood their planetary value.
I don't doubt there are students learning about how critical rainforests are today. Not the point ATM. The point, for me: does it matter how much you say "Save the Rainforests" every year to students if this is where it ends up? Platitudes are not collective planning and action.
I wonder if the young kids in school who learn of climate change will ask this type question when they are my age.
"Why did they ignore this? Why didnt they care more? Didnt anyone think to plan for the worst?"

“It’s always been difficult for the media, and hence the public, to understand methane,” @billmckibben told me. “As carbon emissions have fallen, methane emissions have risen steadily, it’s possible that our total greenhouse gas emissions have not gone down at all. What a farce.”
@billmckibben STORY UPDATED:
Unraveling rules that it had tried for years to put on hold, the Environmental Protection Agency released a proposal Thursday to cut regulations on methane, the second most potent greenhouse gas that accelerates global warming.

A piece by @RollingStone on how WaPo seemingly (and almost entirely) bungled a recent fact-check of the candidate's statement on medical debt and its far-reaching impact.
Excerpt: "To review: the Post fact checker, going straight to the source, a Harvard lecturer, found that Sanders’ was sticking to close to the facts, and if anything understating the problem."
Another excerpt: "The process by which the Post fact checker transmogrified a basically true statement into a ruling of “mostly false” is a case study in the uselessness of the political fact-check as it is often practiced."

@LuluLemew @LincolnsBible @ericgarland I uploaded the Criminal Complaint and notice of Arraignment.
I would not be surprised if the Government filed a superseder specifically adding Hate Crimes - as it’s clear Reardon was motivated by Hate towards the Jewish Community

The House Judiciary Hearing has started. You can watch it live at the link below.

Warning: the comments are full of racist nastiness.

Chairman Nadler seems annoyed that the Republican members have invited those who pander to hate groups to speak.
A couple of screengrabs from the live comments.
