Minnesota medical systems have reported up to 60% cancellations and no-shows since ICE came to town. Families are afraid to get the care they need, and our healthcare workers are put on the frontlines of ICE's cruelty and chaos. Healthcare centers must be ICE-free.

Trump’s illegal war with Iran has already taken a devastating human toll. It could also mean higher energy bills worldwide, while fossil fuel companies, traders, and investors get rich. Read our deep dive: oilchange.org/blogs/trumps...
Gas prices jumped again this morning and are on track to double - a stark reminder of our exposure to fossil fuel volatility.
The real solution isn’t more drilling, but moving away from combustion: electrify, use renewable power, and boost energy efficiency.
This is a good moment for Europe & UK to remember that they can stick up wind and solar, insulates houses, far quicker than they can find new gas in e.g. North Sea
If you're chasing more gas, it's now a case of which unreliable regime you prefer to depend on

Trump’s war is messing with the fallout from Trump’s tariffs, which is messing from the fallout from Trump’s war on clean energy
Not sure that "refuse illegal orders" message got through tho
In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.
*le-sigh*
I know it’s just another bribery story, but this one is worth sharing. Chenier got a $370 million dollar tax break, basically no questions asked, for doing what they would have done anyway. This is #fossilfueledfascism at work www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

🇺🇦 Ukraine is revamping its power sector as rapidly as it can, not for climate protection but for energy security. Wind and solar arrays with independent transmission lines, scattered over the landscape makes them harder to hit and easier to repair.

February 26, 2026 Dear members of the Columbia community: This morning at approximately 6:30 a.m., federal agents from the Department of Homeland Security entered a Columbia Residential building and detained a student. We are working to gather more information, working to reach the family, and providing legal support. Our understanding at this time is that the federal agents made misrepresentations to gain entry to the building to search for a "missing person." We are working to gather more details. It is important to reiterate that all law enforcement agents must have a judicial warrant or judicial subpoena to access non-public areas of the University, including
It is important to reiterate that all law enforcement agents must have a judicial warrant or judicial subpoena to access non-public areas of the University, including housing, classrooms, and areas requiring CUID swipe access. An administrative warrant is not sufficient. If law enforcement agents seek entry to non-public areas of the University, ask the agents to wait to enter any non-public areas until contacting Public Safety. Public Safety will contact the Office of the General Counsel to coordinate the University's response. Do not allow them to enter or accept service of a warrant or subpoena. We will update our community as additional information becomes available. Sincerely,
BREAKING: Columbia President Claire Shipman says DHS agents entered a residential buliding this morning and detained a student.
"Our understanding at this time is that the federal agents made misrepresentations to gain entry to the building to search for a 'missing person.'"
Just think, Washington could have been doing this and turning Puerto Rico into a model. Of course, when Trump finds out, he & the fossil fuel brigade of his Cabinet will scream about how Beijing is violating the Monroe Doctrine and needs to get out of the Western Hemisphere. bsky.app/profile/econ...
New: A mysterious super PAC has spent $600,000 supporting Rep. Valerie Foushee in the NC-04 primary against challenger Nida Allam. Foushee said she would decline AIPAC's financial support.
The group, Article One PAC, is tied in FEC records to a billionaire AIPAC donor.
The Supreme Court has decided to hear a major climate case against fossil fuel companies
Alito has not recused himself, despite owning nearly $200,000 in fossil fuel stocks—including in Phillips 66 and ConocoPhillips, which are being sued in cases that would be directly affected by a SCOTUS ruling
Mission accomplished
ACLU MN reported yesterday that the federal government filed sworn statements that there are 970 agents in Minnesota for Operation Metro Surge & that 407 agents will remain here in March. It’s important to note this is on top of the 190 agents that were already assigned before this surge started.
1⃣ We demand ICE OUT OF MN now! No collaboration, only abolition. Let's build people power✊🔥
For the first time since @projectsaltbox.bsky.social launched their DHS warehouse acquisition tracker, the number of canceled sales is higher than any of the other warehouse-related figures. We've reached a tipping point, folks.

The Trump-Vance administration is separating children seeking asylum from their approved family sponsors and throwing them back into detention.
We’re suing to end the admin’s unlawful newest form of family separation and protect the rights of immigrant children.
The oil companies *really* want these climate liability cases to go away.
