However, there’s a bright light — Maxine Waters responded to the T-Rump’s antics today, tweeting ugly reality in the…
Just to keep up with non-T-Rump news, the planet is still getting hotter, and one of the creeping-hot spots is Antarctica — on the same day last week, an iceberg nearly the size of Atlanta (also three-times the size of San Francisco) broke off of Pine Island Glacier, and a weather station on Seymour Island…
