The Trump admin is opening up Tongass National Forest, one of American’s largest forests and carbon sinks, to logging. We’re teetering between having the ability to tackle climate chaos and totally losing control—and they’re pushing us towards losing control. — PolitiTweet.org

Climate chaos is the greatest threat humanity has ever faced & Barrett won’t say whether it’s real? If we’re going to tackle climate chaos, we need all hands-on-deck. We can’t have a SCOTUS that doesn’t understand that—or worse, actively seeks to block our progress. #WhatsAtStake — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s Supreme Court nominee will be another right-wing activist judge determined to overturn Roe v. Wade. They could make criminals of doctors and women seeking reproductive health care. Government does not belong in the exam room trying to come between a woman and her doctor. — PolitiTweet.org
