Trump’s Pentagon pick Pete Hegseth accused of sexual misconduct in California
Hegseth, current Fox & Friends morning blowhard and Donald Trump's pick to lead the Dept. of Defense, previously faced accusations of sexual misconduct that were investigated by police in California seven years ago. Hegseth predictably claims the incident was consensual and has also gone on the record stating that women have no business serving in combat roles in the military. Turns out we are going WAY back. Absolutely none of this is surprising.

Greenpeace hit with devastating lawsuit from Big Oil
Greenpeace: The oil companies behind the Dakota Access Pipeline are suing Greenpeace for $300 MILLION, wrongly blaming them for organizing the water protector protests at Standing Rock. Will you add your name to tell these greedy oil companies to drop their lawsuit?
Woman testified to House Ethics Committee that Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17
The woman who was at the center of a yearslong Justice Department investigation into sex trafficking allegations surrounding Rep. Matt Gaetz testified to the House Ethics Committee that the now-former Florida congressman had sex with her when she was 17 years old, sources familiar with the investigation told ABC News. Let's be sure to let Republicans bury that ethics report, though. No reason any of the incredibly damning evidence they turned up might be relevant now that Gaetz has been tapped by Trump to run the entire Department of Justice, right?

COP summits "no longer fit for purpose," say leading climate policy experts
As COP29 nears the halfway point in Baku, Azerbaijan, a group of influential climate policy experts have come forward with a letter demanding that future UN climate summits be held only in countries that can show clear support for climate action and have stricter rules on fossil fuel lobbying. More than 1,700 coal, oil, and gas lobbyists were granted access to COP29, raising some very obvious and troubling questions. "It is now clear that the COP is no longer fit for purpose. We need a shift from negotiation to implementation," the group wrote. Just a thought, but maybe not welcoming so many foxes into the henhouse is a good place to start?

Trump vows to destroy our climate with reckless drilling
Evergreen Action: The worst has come to pass, and now we have to do everything we can to minimize the damage that Donald Trump can do during his next administration. Right now, President Biden has just over two months before Trump takes the White House — which means he has two months to deny the export authorizations for five SUPER-polluting gas projects. Will you sign the petition and tell President Biden to shut down these destructive gas projects before Trump can get his hands on them?
Team Trump has a list of military officers it wants to fire
The MAGA cult leader's transition team reportedly has a list of military officers they want to boot from the Pentagon, and it could unprecedentedly include the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Two sources told Reuters, on the condition of anonymity, that Trump is still in the early stages of planning and the list could grow as he gets closer to taking office. Insiders predict that the 78-year-old con man could focus his firings on military officers connected to Gen. Mark Milley, Trump’s former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who famously told Bob Woodward: "I had suspicions when I talked to you about his mental decline and so forth, but now I realize he’s a total fascist."

Trump picks his New York hush money defense lawyers for top spots at DOJ
The MAGA cult leader just announced that his porn star hush money trial lawyers will be his nominees for the No. 2 and No. 3 posts at the Department of Justice, which in no way should be construed as a blatant act to stuff the department with loyalists who will weaponize the massive agency and conduct his campaign of revenge and retribution. We are entering the upside down.
