- Trump still thinks cold weather means climate change is a "hoax." Here's my response... substack.com/@climatehuma...
- Don’t be afraid of ICE, don’t be afraid of Trump. They are clowns and cowards. If enough of us stand up to them together, collectively, we win and build a more beautiful world on the far side of all this
- Stop calling this an “administration.” It’s a fascist regime. Stop calling Trump “president.” He’s a dictator. Stop calling ICE “federal agents.” They are the gestapo. We need to collectively wake up and rise up
- Reposted by Peter KalmusNEW: Second video shows ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A woman, a U.S. citizen, was killed
- centrists and corporate dems used to gaslight leftists en masse. and it used to work. it won’t work anymore

- Here is my latest post over on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/climateh...
- Where tf is the NYT article about who these ICE thugs are
- What gives me hope? There are more of us who want love and freedom, than those of us who want hate and tyranny
- I feel physically sickened by the video of Brad Lander being handcuffed by ICE goons for asking to see their warrant
- Reposted by Peter KalmusHi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.
- If you are disappearing people off the streets, you might be a fascist
- The State of the Planet, Part I (my latest post) open.substack.com/pub/climateh...
- If you didn’t realize that ACAB before I hope the fuck you do now
- It’s not antisemitic to call out Israel’s war crimes
- Trump’s bill raises the debt by $2.4 trillion, cuts taxes for the ultra-rich, and takes away health insurance for 11 million Americans

- My new substack is #5 "rising" in Climate and Environment! I love being able to write articles there without any editorial gatekeeping climatehuman.substack.com
- My latest substack. Two main points: 1. The media needs to stop mincing words. The way journalists aren't straight up calling this fascism reminds me of the decades-long media failure on climate. 2. Stay and fight, hard. We can still stop dictatorship open.substack.com/pub/climateh...
- As a person with degrees from Harvard and Columbia, my feelings about the two institutions are only diverging over time. One said yes to fascism, one said no. It really is that simple. How much is it worth to be known forever as standing on the right side of history? Resist, resist, resist!!
- My latest Substack post, a deep dive into the climate-fascism connection, and resistance in two fascist regimes… open.substack.com/pub/climateh...
- It’s horrifying to see how ignoring the Constitution is rapidly becoming normalized

- I don't think it's too late for a rising! We've already started and I sense that it is growing. I do know, though, that it's the only way out... otherwise America falls like Nazi Germany did
- The author disabled quotes.Every citizen in the USA should be obliged to read or watch The Handmaid's Tale. Now. Oh. Damn it. It's already banned in parts of the USA. When a book becomes alive. Too quick. It seems it's already too late for a rising. But I do hope I am wrong. #TheHandMaidsTale #USA #Facism
- Like all of us, universities had better band together to resist fascism! When united, universities will stand. Where is the movement among university presidents and administrators to unite Resistors in Nazi Germany never united, they stayed divided
- Protest day! I love it. Solidarity is a helluva drug
- AOC 2028
- Standing up to these stupid bullies is the only way! Protest tomorrow to help stop fascism and to feel some sunshine in these dark times Find your local Saturday protest here www.google.com/mymaps/viewe...
- We are not "on the verge of" a constitutional crisis, this IS the constitutional crisis. Trump is not "flirting with" lawless defiance of court orders, he IS defying court orders. This is fascism.
- This is market manipulation, and market manipulation is theft
- What an absolute embarrassment of an ignorant narcissist. These people are idiots and cowards. Don’t cower, stand up to them. We got this
- When there's a measles outbreak it would be smart to encourage vaccination
- I just want to say that Trump and this administration CAN BE DEFEATED. They are fascists but they are idiots and they are massively overreaching. If we stand up to them, we will defeat them. United we stand - DO NOT COWER!
- The only way to stop fascists is to oppose them. Do not comply. Protest!! open.substack.com/pub/climateh...
- please protest tomorrow. it’s incredibly important
- Bernie and AOC need to start a new party that finally represents the people. Not corporations and the rich like the Democrats have done for decades
- Why do so many people still suggest "calling your Congressional office or the White House" as like the go-to form of "resistance." Just saw this in a comment by Nicholas Kristof, the NYT columnist, but have been seeing it all over. I thought it was clear that was deader than dead as a useful thing
- This is not America. This is the US of Fascism "We’re not stopping,” Mr. Homan said on Monday, during an appearance on Fox & Friends. “I DON'T CARE WHAT THE JUDGES THINK — I don’t care what the left thinks. We’re coming.”

- Reposted by Peter Kalmus🚨 BREAKING: 11 young people were arrested after Schumer locked the doors on us—we showed him how to fight, but he couldn’t even face us. His cowardly deal gives Musk the keys to our government while working people suffer. If he won’t fight for us, he’s unfit to lead. Step up or step aside.

- Democrats are spineless cowards. I’d expect nothing less from a party that has been fighting for corporate interests and against the working class for decades. No one is coming to save us but ourselves
- Many people are still trying to act like things are sort of OK. Because that’s emotionally easier. But this is a fascist takeover, at least call it what it is
- Imagine thinking education is the problem
- They think they’re smart because they have money but they are the biggest fools in the universe. Selling their own planet out from under them. Idiots www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/c...
- I’m still in shock about NASA cutting science. Got the email earlier today. Sadly, not surprised. What an astronomical mistake
- I will NEVER go silent. Neither should you www.nytimes.com/2025/03/06/u...
- stock market manipulation?
- We could be working together to stop the physical irreversible overheating of our planet but instead were desperately trying to save democracy from these dumbass man-children. What a waste
- We need to build a movement to have maybe a 50/50 chance of stopping full fascism. The path is to unite over the realization that the billionaires are the enemy... this is a life-or-death class war. Here's a piece I wrote: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
- Do not comply in advance, and stand up for what you know in your heart is right even though it's scary. Be Al Green
