As we've long expected, the State of Georgia today issued a RICO indictment against 60+ activists and others in their latest attempt at shutting down the right to protest in Atlanta. Three Solidarity Fund organizers are included in this indictment.

🍩Paul Brown, the CEO of @InspireBrands, whose portfolio includes @DunkinDonuts @Arbys @BaskinRobbins @JimmyJohns & @SonicDriveIn, sits on the board of trustees of the Atlanta Police Foundation, which is raising $60m from corporate funders to build #CopCity in the Atlanta forest.

the most powerful climate report of the decade was published on monday, after 195 governments fought over the words in its summary for policymakers, and the only media allowed in the room just published its account of who lobbied for what 1/

"many of us know little about who elites are, how they operate, who they work with, what they own, what they want to own, what policies they fight for and seek to oppose, and how they are ideologically and materially mapping and designing our quality of life"

Yesterday members of the Mvskoke Creek Nation delivered a letter of eviction to Mayor Andre Dickens of Atlanta informing the Mayor the City must immediately vacate their lands.

The Mayor refused to engage with the indigenous leaders.

Monday morning, a group of clergy representing over 200 signatories to an open letter stood before Atlanta City Hall to demand that the Weelaunee Forest be returned to the Muskogee people. Muskogee Chief and Methodist Minister Mekko Chebon Kernell began with an invocation.

In Ohio, families are crowdfunding to leave the area of the Norfolk Southern derailment. In Atlanta, activists are fighting to block an environmentally destructive “Cop City” training ground, of which Norfolk Southern is a $100,000 donor: https://t.co/uvsVq5J9vy

On Tuesday, 2/21, Atlanta City Council will vote on giving $500k in COVID funds to the Atlanta Police Foundation for housing cops.

Last week, ATL leaders forfeited $10mil in pandemic rental relief, screwing over poor residents facing eviction.

[Hannah Riley Fernandez @hannahcrileyy]

your analysis of literally anything involving cops needs to include the fact that cops lie ALL THE TIME!!!

[Adrian Glover @adrian_glover_]

Ironic that @andreforatlanta is apparently speaking at an event next week that is about “genuine listening” and feedback (funded by the Blank Foundation) when he continues to ignore/gaslight the 70% plus of local people that oppose Cop City… smh.

Other media excluded from today's presser include: WABE, GPB, one 11 Alive crew, WSB, per our reporter. So to review: The city of Atlanta organized a press conference about Cop City, invited all the press, then excluded members of the press. Good job, y'all.

The independent autopsy has revealed that Manuel "Tortuguita" Páez Terán was shot at least 13 times. We will continue to support and assist their family in pursuing the truth of what happened to Tortuguita. GBI: stop withholding evidence from a grieving family. Transparency now.

These tech billionaires lost $433B on the market in 2022 alone - 7x more than they’ve given back over their entire lifetimes ($59B). Why would anyone follow their lead on climate change funding?

Governor Kemp is mobilizing the National Guard to pre-emptively suppress protests over the #TyreNichols murder.
We are prepared to provide bail and legal assistance to anyone who's targeted for protesting. If anyone you know is arrested, report it here: https://t.co/AgDtM2rbV1

[Hannah Riley Fernandez @hannahcrileyy]

note there was no tweet lamenting the inexcusable violence when it was a person who was killed. that line is saved for bank windows and one (1) cop car.

[Atlanta Solidarity Fund @ATLSolFund]

Last night, Atlanta leadership followed Governor Kemp in calling protesters "terrorists". What started as a right-wing talking point from a Republican governor is now being parroted by the city. [thread]

Word from the street is that 10+ forest defenders have been arrested tonight at the rally mourning the police murder of Tortuguita. Donate for their bail and defense here! https://t.co/uAHCbRv990
