A Black teen named Kalief Browder was falsely accused of stealing a backpack. He spent 3 years tortured at Rikers & died by suicide

A wealthy white man named Tom Homan was caught by FBI accepting bribes. He was promoted to a powerful law enforcement position

This is what white supremacy looks like

It would be nice to take a break from talking about the rapidly decaying state of the country and I give it a shot as often as I can, but everything else feels painfully frivolous and put-on. All of it is mentally exhausting

Approx 30% med residents in the US are internat'l graduates; approx 10,000 of 43,000 resident spots go to H-1B visa holders. Are hospitals going to pay 100K xtra per year? Rural locations will suffer (if they haven't already been defunded)

The American people deserve real accountability—not these selective investigations. If there are questions about misconduct, we should follow the facts.

I think it’s important to note and thank the professional CDC staff that prepared such an exhaustive litany of information for the briefings that made clear that the decisions the “ACIP” voted on were actually counter to what the scientific evidence supported and was driven by their bias and animus

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.
moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.

one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

Reminder: you’re discussing whether to change a recommendation of thirty years protecting babies and public health made by people with actual expertise. If you’re going to change their recommendations you need good evidence for the change. You don’t have that.

When an authoritarian, thin-skinned president forbids me to criticize him, some hear that as a threat, but I hear it as a challenge.

Overcrowded cells. Unsanitary conditions. Limited access to food and water.

These are the conditions that ICE has created at 26 Federal Plaza, which eleven elected officials sought to expose. Instead, they were arrested.

They must be released right now — and inspectors let in.
Just now, 11 state and city lawmakers were arrested by DHS police on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza after a hour of demanding access to the ICE lock up on the same floor. @thecity.nyc

Designating citizens as "enemies of the state" is a core tenet of fascism and other totalitarian ideologies. It serves to justify the erosion of legal rights and the violent suppression of any perceived opposition by creating an "us vs. them" mentality.

This is AMERICA. Everyone should be allowed to say a minimum 100 mean things about the President every god damn day if they want. THAT is free speech.

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

“ExxonMobil made 51 heatwaves at least 10,000 times more likely than in an unheated world”

ExxonMobil knew they were cooking our world 50 years ago, & then CHOSE to spend decades funding doubt & denial.

People made this choice.
People who will be responsible for billions of people.
Carbon emissions from oil giants directly linked to dozens of deadly heatwaves for first time
Study shows how individual fossil fuel companies are making previously impossible heatwaves happen and could have to pay compensation

To borrow some of Thay’s framing, if you’re going to talk about addressing violence, you must look at the seeds of that violence and lecturing people who are angry about how they’ve been harmed & threatened by systemic white supremacy and its advocates is not addressing the seeds of violence at all
