I repeat: We as a #community, each and every one of us must rigorously hold #accountable everyone in our reach, starting with and especially in our own families, friends - acquaintances circle. No excuses, no looking away, no pardoning, #zerotolerance. This is the ONLY way.
For reference I recommend The Paradox of Tolerance.

No one has been held #accountable for #murdering 72 people.
It will happen again.

'When #BigOil Says Jump, Republicans Ask How High?' #GOP Sends #ClimateKilling Bill to #Trump's Desk

"It's a sorry testament to the influence of Big Oil on Capitol Hill that one of the top priorities of Congress is a blatant handout to the worst actors in the #FossilFuel industry," said one critic.

Jessica Corbett, Feb 28, 2025

"Climate advocates are blasting congressional Republicans this week for their latest gift to fossil fuel industry: sending a resolution to kill the federal Methane Emissions Reduction Program to the desk of U.S. President Donald #Trump.

"#BigOil - backed Trump is expected to sign the Congressional Review Act resolution, which senators passed along party lines on Thursday. That followed a Wednesday vote in the House of Representatives, where Democratic Reps. Henry Cuellar (Texas), Jared Golden (Maine), Vincente Gonzalez (Texas), Adam Gray (Calif.), Kristen Donald Rivet (Mich.), and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.) supported the measure alongside all Republicans present except Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania.

"#Methane has more than 80 times as much warming power as carbon dioxide during its first two decades in the atmosphere. The pollution program was established by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) last November. The Associated Press reported Thursday that 'most major oil and gas companies do not release enough methane to trigger the fee, which is $900 per ton, an amount that would increase to $1,500 by 2026.'

"The GOP resolution will end the program, but not the mandate from the 2022 law. #MahyarSorour, #SierraClub's director of beyond fossil fuels policy, declared that 'this attack on EPA's implementation of the methane waste emissions charge is short-sighted and harmful. It remains a legal requirement for EPA to hold the biggest methane #polluters #accountable for their negligence.'

"'Forcing the agency to implement the charge some other way after conducting a thorough, well-researched process is as wasteful of taxpayer resources as these oil and gas operators are wasteful of harmful methane,' Sorour argued.

"'Technology to monitor and stop leaks is readily available and easy to implement, so only wasteful, careless corporations will face a fee for excessive methane pollution. Despite this setback, Sierra Club will not stop fighting to make polluters pay for their egregious actions.'"

More from #DemocracyNow's interview with #RalphNader:

JUAN GONZÁLEZ: Ralph? Ralph, let me ask you. For the #progressive movement now, as it faces the return of Donald #Trump, what do you think are the next steps in terms of #resistance or reorganization that have to occur?

RALPH NADER: Well, it’s got to be focused on #Congress. The House is not yet resolved, but only Congress can stop the #Trumpsters. It isn’t just Trump. Trump is a figurehead. Trump is a bullhorn. It’s the Trumpsters. It’s the #HeritageFoundation. It’s [#Project2025]. It’s the takeover of departments that are dedicated to standing up for the people, the environmental protection bureau [#EPA], the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau [#CFPB], the #AutoSafety bureau [I'll bet Trump puts Elon in charge of that], the Federal Trade Commission [#FTC], the Justice Department. These are all going to be turned into virulent, vengeful or inactive governments. They want to destroy the civil service, bring it back to the spoils system. We’re in for huge turmoil. One can say that the election yesterday really elected #PresidentVance. Trump is not going to last. He’s going to disintegrate. And #Vance is in a position to become the next president.

So, what has to be done, Juan, is massive focus on Congress, which is the main constitutionally authorized lever to hold the executive branch #accountable, build for 2026. The Democrats will have far fewer people up for the Senate than the Republicans, unlike this year.

And they’ve got to stop blasting away at people who want to challenge the #DemocraticParty. The party says to everybody on their side, “You know how bad the Republicans are? You got nowhere to go.” They spent a lot of money attacking the #GreenParty, the tiny Green Party, instead of listening to William Barber, Reverend William Barber, who said, “Look, there’s 80 million people who aren’t going to vote. A lot of them are low-wage workers. If you get 15% of low-wage workers who aren’t voting to go to the polls, the Democrats would have won.” They didn’t listen to him. They didn’t listen to all the citizen groups who know how to talk to people, not just liberal patients or liberal workers, but conservative workers, conservative patients. Remember, a vast majority of this country wants to tax the undertaxed #wealthy and the #corporations. They want to break up the #BigBanks. And above all, in poll after poll, they say that corporations have too much control over their lives. Sherrod Brown pulled in his horns and lost. #BernieSanders campaigned on corporate power, and he won in a landslide in Vermont. And Harris refused to campaign with Bernie Sanders, but she campaigned in several states with #LizCheney of the criminal Cheney family and the invasion of #Iraq that killed over a million Iraqis.

So the blunders were endless. And it was basically turning her back on the progressive and the genuine populist constituency in this country. And Bernie, of course, supported Harris, but his positions were rejected constantly. He said, “Get the living wage up. Get universal healthcare up. Crack down on corporate crooks. Increase Social Security benefits that have been frozen for over 50 years. And get the taxation on the wealthy.” She ignored all that. Just throwaway lines.

OUCH!

I can only speak for the #culture I grew up in, but I believe the following also applies to most human cultures. We seem to expect our children to know what they want to do, and stick with it. I get how it's imperative to have #goals, #ambitions, and be held #accountable. But our blind demand towards #teenagers to decide on their #future at a time when the #brain is still developing, and then having the expectation that this is a #lifelong decision is ludicrous.

#Enforcement is key:

I love this:"#AI's potential significantly outweighs its teething problems. We must approach it with #critical #optimism, not #fear. This crucial juncture in the AI industry should rally all stakeholders – AI companies, developers, end-users, and regulators - to #collaboratively build a #safer, more #transparent, and #accountable #AI #ecosystem. As we've seen with #cybersecurity, it's an arduous journey, but the destination – a #world made #better through AI – is well worth the effort."

"there are people #voting on #policy right now that may never be held #accountable for what happened," Democratic analyst Basil Smikle continued. "And that's why you see in places like New York. #Independents now #outnumber #Republicans in the state.

"I'm sure it's a #trend that's happening around the country. Not because it's an end of conservatism, but it's a sign that there are a lot of folks that want to get away from Donald Trump"
