the fact that crises of poverty constitute the overwhelmingly determinative cause of relinquishments gives an especially bitter flavor to a day when the national imperilment of SNAP benefits coincides with the start of National Adoption Awareness Month. 🥚

Also true: Andrew Cuomo oversaw the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stabilized housing. And killed NYC’s program helping people move out of shelter.
Leaders must show moral clarity. Andrew, time to move out. 🧵

The President sees a bad jobs report, and responds by getting rid of the person in charge of the statistics. This is how America becomes a third-rate country.

Agencies accused of rushing adoptions before mothers can change their minds
As more states limit or ban access to abortion, some are beginning to push adoption as an alternative for women facing unplanned pregnancies. But when do laws go from accommodating to exploitative?…

This is insane. Codifying conspiracy theories and lies into public school curriculum
Starting this fall, Oklahoma high school students will be expected to study so-called “discrepancies” from the 2020 presidential election — essentially conspiracy theories about a stolen election that have been thoroughly discredited by courts and President Donald Trump’s own Department of Justice.

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.
