@joncoopertweets Well they are FORMER presidents, not exactly a high priority gathering. Now meeting with world leaders and business leaders that’s worth doing.
The Hill is out with my column on the scathing rebuke of Philly DA Krasner's office by the Supreme Court for a record of dishonesty in working to undermine his own cases. Krasner ran on a slogan of "F--k Around and Find Out." Well, he just found out... https://t.co/jed5FW8luc
This guy collected every local law in America and put them in a single database.
2.2 million laws.
This might seem to you like some nerds side project, and while it is technically, it is also much more important than you think.
Historically, whenever anything is made transparent to the voting bloc it undergoes radical change.
Every. Single. Time.
To the extent governments work overtime to make things opaque. (And I expect that to happen to this dataset too very soon, in a thousand different ways.)
The internet makes everything including politics “global/local” and local laws won’t escape.
It’s hard to understand right now how profound this will be, but we live in interesting times for sure.
Thank you Joe, and all the other nerds who do stuff like this because they are personally curious and they can. This is how history moves forwards
For years, I raised alarms about dangerous gain-of-function research being farmed out to foreign countries, and I was told it was a conspiracy theory. Now, declassified documents show that the U.S. funded over 120 biolabs across more than 30 countries. Some of this research was conducted overseas precisely because scientists knew it would face scrutiny on American soil.
I'm calling for a presidential commission of scientists to review all gain-of-function research going forward. We're going lab by lab and pathogen by pathogen until the American people know the full truth.

@mungowitz And exactly what was the alternative, the enrichment capability and the enriched uranium is out of reach and destroyed. Their military is in shambles and they have been revealed to be willing to attack their neighbors. Were there options that did not involve boots?
Today’s story behind the numbers: This #FBI and its law enforcement partners dismantled a dangerous international methamphetamine ring run out of an auto shop in Georgia that led to a life sentence.
James Len Ramey received two life sentences on Friday for distributing hundreds of kilograms of methamphetamine trafficked from Mexico. He used his employment at an auto shop to distribute the deadly illegal drugs into the Atlanta community.
“This investigation is a prime example of the critical work being done to dismantle violent drug trafficking organizations that operate with impunity, bringing dangerous narcotics into our communities,” said @FBIAtlanta Special Agent in Charge Marlo Graham.
This FBI continues to take down the illegal drug trafficking rings threatening the safety of our communities. During Operation Spring Cleaning, this FBI seized over 2,700 pounds of illegal narcotics including over 1100 pounds of cocaine, nearly 700 pounds of methamphetamine and over 550 pounds of marijuana.

@mungowitz Gee people seem to forget the part where we kicked their ass and set back their ECONOMY, Military and nuclear ambitions all with minimal causalities. Oh and exposed to the rest of the region just how dangerous a powerful Iran is to THEM. Also alternate route for oil will be had
We now know Dr. Fauci had deep ties to the intelligence community that predate the COVID pandemic. Think about what that means. When the question of whether this virus came from a lab first arose, one man was positioned to shape the answer across science, intelligence, and public opinion.
He steered the narrative away from the lab leak theory because he knew the NIH was funding gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
