Our entire public debate is decades behind the realities we know we face now, and as we understand those realities better, most of our findings will reveal our problems to be even more pressing than we thought they were.

That's just what the 2020s are going be like. https://twitter.com/DrNoelHealy/status/1204204976953626624

This final slide from @MichaelEMann is devastating. The time for incremental climate policy is over.🚨He estimates annual emissions may have to drop by 15% a year (rather than 7.5%)🚨. In other words we have zero years to tackle climate change. We need a #GreenNewDeal now #GND

The take away of this story doesn't seem to be that impeachment is bad for Democrats. It's that opposing impeachment is so bad for Democrats they can't remain Democrats. https://twitter.com/AndrewDesiderio/status/1205949264515481600

NEWS: Rep. Jeff Van Drew, a Democrat who opposes impeachment, plans to switch parties and become a Republican.

Staff were informed today. Question now is when, not if, he makes it official.
