Approaching the fifth anniversary of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, the official plaque honoring the police who defended democracy is nowhere to be found. It’s not on display at the Capitol, as is required by law. Its whereabouts are not publicly known, though it’s believed to be in storage. Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson has yet to formally unveil the plaque. And the Trump administration’s Justice Department is seeking to dismiss a lawsuit asking that it be displayed. In…

Their argument: Shell's emissions made the devastating storm more likely and more severe. It's part of a growing movement to hold Big Oil accountable for climate damages, especially in vulnerable regions like the Philippines that face repeated destruction.
"We don't deserve this," they say—and they're fighting back.
