Imagine a politician looking at this data, seeing the exponential increase in heat related deaths caused by climate change—& still proudly taking tens of thousands of dollars in fossil fuel money from the fossil fuel megacorps causing the deadly climate change.😳 Unacceptable.
@WrittenByHanna@Henderson_Joe Also didn’t learn until later how Emmet Till’s murder directly preceded the Montgomery bus boycotts - and how Parks had attended a meeting where it was revealed that the men who murdered him had been acquitted.

Have I got a story for you. It starts with a simple tip that someone has done a FOIA request for all 7 million voter signature cards in Georgia. I was able to get a screenshot of the request. It's much more insane than I could have possibly thought and people need to know.

Hey VA friends: a reminder to always ask (politely and professionally) if something feels off.
Got about 1/3 of the way through recording for a project & noticed retake dates hadn't been booked. I asked the engineer when he'd like to book something and my stomach DROPPED.
