The #PBSNewsHour is a good alternative to #MSNBC.

Tonight’s PBS Newshour interview featuring astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore aboard the ISS concerned their unexpected extended stay on-orbit, what they’re doing, and handling home life from space. Their microphone handling was fun to watch, too. #pbs #pbsnewshour #nasa #iss

How button boards are changing human-canine communication

A viral, online phenomenon claims to have further opened the door to human-canine communication. Buttons allow dogs to seemingly talk with their humans, but are all these button enthusiasts barking up the wrong tree? William Brangham and his pup Macy doggedly pursue the truth.

A chaotic and clearly illegal executive order halting virtually all federal government grant and loan funding has been almost entirely frozen by a court hours after it was issued: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/federal-judge-halts-trump-freeze-on-federal-grants-and-loans-for-a-week

About 2.5 days after an executive order attempted to ban birthright citizenship in the United States, a federal judge has blocked it as it is directly contradictory to the Constitution: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/federal-judge-temporarily-blocks-trumps-order-attempting-to-end-birthright-citizenship

For context, remember that the US has a glut of fossil gas (aka methane or "natural gas"), and is currently producing more oil and gas per year than any country ever has.

"Within hours of taking office, President Trump declared a national energy emergency as part of his plan to push for more oil and gas drilling and to heavily boost fossil fuels." #PBSNewsHour

This is about pipelines for fracking products.

- Pulling out of Paris Climate accord is expected to take about a year.
- Using an impoundment act to withhold congressionally approved funding for #EV chargers and battery manufacturing. (Musk thinks this will hurt Tesla's competition more than Tesla.)

How much #SCOTUS and #Congress are just rubber stamps or puppets for the #GOP president, or cowards when it comes to him, will be tested.

The US public news show, #PBSNewsHour, had a good piece today on the current government of Aotearoa-NZ's attempts this year to roll back Māori rights, and the massive protests in opposition. It's good to see this story being covered in some depth internationally.
