The REAL Reasons For Trump’s Impeachment

The Phony Liberalism of Bill Maher

Despite everything he does and says, media still call HBO host a 'liberal.'

Bill Maher rose from being an “edgy,” opinionated comedian to becoming one of the most influential and recognizable faces in our media. His political talk show, Real Time With Bill Maher, has been on HBO since 2003, spanning 17 seasons with over 500 episodes to date. Real Time continues to be one of the most popular shows on cable TV, drawing in more than 4 million viewers per episode

The Ocean Cleanup Project Finally Cleaned Up Some Plastic

Grist | Miyo McGinn

Well, folks, there’s a first time for everything — the Ocean Cleanup project has successfully deployed a device that collects plastic pollution.

It only took six years, tens of millions of dollars, and a few unsuccessful attempts (or “unscheduled learning opportunities,” in the words of 25-year-old founder and CEO Boyan Slat). The nonprofit’s prior, unsuccessful designs failed to catch any plastic, broke, or overflowed.

Welcome back to The Ledger!

This week we get to make fun of CNN and the DNC - I love doing both of those things if you didn’t know. Trump’s impeachment proceedings began and the corporate media is doing its best to ignore that - while Trump is corrupt - Joe Biden was totally implicated.

There’s a lot of great content for you this week.

Also, congratulations to the protesters who shut DC down last week.

Trump Attacked the Women of Color Who Led the Push for Impeachment. Then CNN Erased Them.

The Intercept | Natasha Lennard

There is a growing double narrative about who deserves credit for the effort to impeach President Donald Trump. One side of the narrative, coming primarily from the media, lauds late-coming figures to impeachment as saviors, and the other, coming from Trump, tears down impeachment’s early adopters as malicious traitors. Though the two campaigns are almost diametrically opposed, their effects are the same: to question the legitimacy and “seriousness” of leftists and women of color who have risen to leadership positions in our national politics.

Hong Kong Is Not What It Seems

Don’t Believe The Lies Again

Ecocide Should Be Recognized As a Crime Against Humanity, But We Can’t Wait for The Hague to Judge

The Intercept | Natasha Lennard

The image of Darren Woods, CEO of Exxon Mobil, loomed over the climate strike in New York last Friday afternoon. Rendered in cardboard, 15 feet tall and clutching a bag of fake, bloodied money, the puppet of Woods wore the label “Climate Villain.” It bobbed among the 250,000-strong crowd, joined by cutout versions of BP CEO Bob Dudley and Shell CEO Ben Van Beurden. By the time the puppets were set down in Battery Park, the terminus of the New York protest, the faces of the fossil fuel executives had been daubed with marker-pen devil horns.

Why Greenpeace activists dangled from a bridge in Texas — and face 2 years in prison

Grist | Naveena Sadasivam

It was early in the morning last Thursday, and Jonathan Butler was standing on the Fred Hartman Bridge, helping 11 fellow Greenpeace activists rappel down and suspend themselves over the Houston Ship Channel. The protesters dangled in the air most of the day, shutting down a part of one of the country’s largest ports for oil.

Saving the Planet Means Overthrowing the Ruling Elites

TruthDig | Chris Hedges

Friday’s climate strike by students across the globe will have no more impact than the mass mobilizations by women following the election of Donald Trump or the hundreds of thousands of protesters who took to the streets to denounce the Iraq War. This does not mean these protests should not have taken place. They should have. But such demonstrations need to be grounded in the bitter reality that in the corridors of power we do not count.

WaPo No Longer Discloses Its Owner’s Uber Investment

FAIR | Pete Tucker

A new California law threatens to upend Uber, but the Washington Post claimed the law doesn’t apply to the ride-hailing giant. This is convenient, since Post owner Jeff Bezos is not only a major Uber investor, but also founder and CEO of Amazon, which is likely to also be negatively impacted by the new law.

A recent mountaineering trip found me and two climbing partners camping alongside a beautiful glacial lake in North Cascades National Park.

Purple flowers swayed in the cool breeze coming down from the glacier above us. No less than five wispy waterfalls flowed down a rock wall behind our camp — the melting runoff from a smaller glacier up above.

Anarchist Hacker Jeremy Hammond Summoned to Testify in Front of Grand Jury

Unicorn Riot | Emma Best, Freddy Martinez

Imprisoned anarchist hacker Jeremy Hammond has been summoned to testify in front of a federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia. It is unclear what matters the federal grand jury is investigating but it is largely presumed to be same grand jury investigating WikiLeaks. Chelsea Manning, a previous WikiLeaks source, is currently being held in contempt for refusing to answer questions in front of the grand jury.

American Barbarity on the Border

The United States’ current immigration system is functioning exactly the way it is supposed to—it is designed to make people suffer.

The amount of violence the U.S. inflicts on people from around the world is all done in our name. It has become such a common occurrence that, like a fire alarm that blares randomly every day, it has lost all sense of urgency. We tune it out until it becomes white noise.
