We have the solutions. Clean energy/food tech available now can save our climate. What's missing is the political will.

Appears to be absolutely MASSIVE protests all across the US yesterday and this platform is so skewed to the Trump/Putin side that this is the first I've seen or heard of it.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The montage uses recycled footage from larger 2025 and March 2026 No Kings protests, not Oct 17 2026 Vote Early events. Those were smaller localized gatherings (hundreds to thousands per city) focused on early voting, not the massive crowds shown. nytimes.com/2026/10/17/us/… abc7ny.com/post/no-kings-… minnesotareformer.com/2026/10/17/hun… npr.org/2026/10/17/nx-…

FM Winston Peters effectively forced NZ to abstain from UN vote adopting a pandemic declaration, despite a majority of Cabinet backing it!! How does Mr 6% get to decide this? Because Luxon is weak. And spineless. This Coc needs gone! newsroom.co.nz/2026/10/13/pe…

BREAKING: MONEY, MEET MOUTH! Macklemore announces that he's donating the $1 million he made from the Ed Sheeran tour to Palestinian support organizations. And it gets even better... "With everything that has happened over the last 48 hours, I want to bring the conversation back to where it belongs: to the Palestinian people who are still being killed, still living under military occupation, and still fighting for their freedom," Macklemore wrote on Instagram. "I will be donating the entire $1 million of my net earnings from Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour to six organizations working directly to support the Palestinian people. And I invite Robert Kraft to match my donation," he continued. Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots and a man whose name appears in the Epstein files, is the ultra-Zionist who banded together with other venue owners to get Macklemore dropped from the Sheeran tour after he voiced support for Palestine on stage. The blatant assault on free speech has since led to Sheeran's entire supporting lineup dropping from the tour, from his house band to his opening acts. Spoiler: Kraft will not be matching Macklemore's donation. Anyone willing to go to such extreme lengths to silence reasonable, tame criticisms of Israel amidst an ongoing genocide is someone who doesn't see Palestinians as real people. Kraft would sooner donate bombs to the IDF than food to starving children in Gaza. "Whatever we disagree about, perhaps we can agree on this: Palestinian lives are worth protecting. A Palestinian life is no less valuable than any other life on this earth," wrote Macklemore. "That is what this has always been about. Not me. Not a tour. Not the headlines or the controversy. It is about Palestinians right to freedom, dignity and safety in their own homeland," he went on. "I want to center the parents carrying their children into hospitals without the basic resources to treat them, and the physicians, paramedics, journalists and aid workers who keep going back in. I want to center the organizers and activists who have paid real costs for standing with Palestine. Their risk is of a far different order than mine." "Just yesterday, 15 year old Muhammad al Zinati was killed in an Israeli strike while rushing to help aid worker Sherif Lubbad, who had already been injured. He was a child. Both were murdered. Both should be alive. And the ones still under the rubble, whose names exist only in the memories of people who may not have survived to speak them. Writing a check is one of the least costly forms of solidarity available to me. I am doing it because I can, and because these organizations are doing the work while much of the world debates it." "But aid alone cannot address the conditions that make it necessary. This is a manmade injustice, and I believe it requires immediate political change. Palestinians have lived for decades without basic rights and should not have to wait another day to be free. That is where my focus will remain. I will continue to stand with the Palestinian people and their fight for liberation." "When the news cycle moves on, which it will, don't move with it." "Free Palestine," he concluded. Contrast Macklemore's donation with Sheeran's craven attempt to "both sides" this issue and appeal to neutrality while innocent children are being slaughtered en masse. Sheeran chose money over morality. Macklemore chose to stand on the right side of history. Please ❤️ and share if you stand with Macklemore!

But is it fascism? Do they really yearn for apocalypse? Isn't that polarizing? Shouldn't we be nice to them? We made a short video so folks can hear the end timers in their own words and judge for themselves: youtube.com/watch?v=aK2nLNiF…

Farage and Reform UK are in deep trouble. However, after 3 days, @Verbatim_Media's 37 minute video of their extraordinary year-long undercover investigation into Reform UK's illegal foreign donations has only got 161k views. It should have several million. So please repost this and then share the video. youtu.be/RugPik-G1Jw?is=-ikY… – at Brighton, England

Nigel Farage and other senior members of Reform UK have been filmed by undercover reporters celebrating secret new foreign donations. Channel 4 News and @Verbatim_Media, a group of investigative journalists, can today reveal a plot to break the law on party funding at the highest levels of Reform UK. You can watch the full investigation here: youtu.be/aXut3s90rUI Channel 4 News approached Reform UK, Mr Farage, Mr Jukes and Mr Orr for comment on the findings of this investigation. They did not comment but we understand they deny the allegations in full.

Superb from Dr Deborah Russell. Listen to all those ignorant, rude interruptions in the background? Those making them- what is your justification for such self-interest and stupidity? Glad Deborah maintains her important flow and clarity.
Dr Deborah Russell goes through the Government’s appalling record on climate change.

Let’s be clear. The fossil fuel industry made European heatwaves deadly. The fossil fuel industry made storms, floods, droughts and heatwaves so severe that they will soon threaten our very survival. The fossil fuel industry is collapsing our planetary life support systems.

Santana Minerals has been challenged over whether it will cover the cost of catastrophic failure at its proposed Otago gold mine. Hint: there's no way they could cover the cost. We would. rnz.co.nz/news/environment/6…

The Luxon government plans to gut protections for 5 million hectares of public conservation land - making it easier to sell it off to mining corporations and billionaires. Make a submission to oppose the sell off now. Greenpeace has made it super easy👇 action.greenpeace.org.nz/ett…
