@cdarwin@c.imA former U.S. Marine reservist and seven others were sentenced Tuesday to decades in prison over a shooting last year that wounded a police officer during a demonstration at a Texas immigration detention center.
Prosecutors called the crime an act of terrorism and said the eight were linked to a leftist militant group, antifa.
The defendants’ attorneys denied any antifa ties and family members expressed shock and anger over the stiff sentences.

@cdarwin@c.imThe Colorado River, a critical water lifeline for seven states, has shrunk dramatically.
And the nation’s largest reservoirs, Lake Mead and Lake Powell, have dropped to their lowest levels on record.
In an effort to prevent the reservoirs from reaching critically low levels,
the Trump administration has released a plan that orders substantial water cutbacks in California, Arizona and Nevada over the next two years
and outlines possible larger cuts if deemed necessary…

@cdarwin@c.imNational parks are deteriorating. There’s a fix Congress isn’t making.
The national park system faces a maintenance backlog of $24 billion in crumbling roads, aging water systems, washed-out trails and dilapidated visitor facilities.
That is more than seven times the National Park Service’s annual budget.
Last month, committees in both the House and Senate advanced bipartisan bills to dedicate roughly $1.3 billion annually for park maintenance over the next five years. …

District of Columbia v. Heller in 2008,
when the Supreme Court ruled 5–4 that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms for self-defense
— overturning nearly two centuries of jurisprudence that had centered the right on the organized militia.
