“These translators and trusted staff picked a side, and they put their whole existence on our side of that line. It’s a one-way street to the American side of things in Afghanistan—there is no turning back, and these friends picked us.”

I'm a Head of Finance at Google.

I've interviewed 100s of candidates in my career and I know my decision within the first 7 minutes.

Do these 5 things to prepare for the interview and I guarantee you'll impress recruiters and hiring managers at your dream company:

@emilykmay You need @JackBeSocial in your town. Drive through supermarket—no need to get out of the car. It’s the best idea since sliced bread.

I recently came across data on who we spend our time with over the course of our lives.

The insights are simultaneously inspiring and depressing.

Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:

I like Bono.

[W. David O. Taylor @wdavidotaylor]

This exchange between Bono & Franklin Graham is so perfect:

“Why aren’t your songs...Christian songs?”
“They are!”
“Oh, well, some of them are.”
“What do you mean?”
“Well…Why don’t we know they’re Christian songs?”

Well done here @MikeCosper!

The FBI has received credible information of a broad threat to synagogues in NJ. We ask at this time that you take all security precautions to protect your community and facility. We will share more information as soon as we can. Stay alert. In case of emergency call police.

[Congressman Chuy García @RepChuyGarcia]

I immigrated to the United States when I was 9. The only reason I'm now a citizen — and a congressman — is because a path to citizenship was available to me.

These same pathways to citizenship no longer exist.

We must pass the Dream Act and save DACA.

If you go back to the late 90s and early 2000s, religious liberty was far more tenuous than it is now. After more than a decade of religious liberty victories, securing key goals of the religious liberty movement, do Christians feel more secure? Why not? https://t.co/qfX4Dhnxc6

Moroccan design is all about colour, texture & fluid lines. It is a unique blend of North African, Mediterranean & Islamic styles, creating a distinctive look which has inspired artists & designers all over the world.

Helping the team win a conference championship one day, performing in the school's Hispanic Heritage Talent Show the next -- we applaud all our well-rounded, talented student athletes at #Millbrook!!
Way to go, Silas!

[Brian Saunders Ed.D. @PrincipalBrian]

Way to go, Millbrook CC! The boys dominated the conference championship race (again this year) w/ a score of 28! The girls were Runners Up! On to Regionals! Go Cats!

[ARCHIVED: Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas @SecMayorkas]

It is clearer than ever that only the passage of legislation will give full protection & a well-deserved path to citizenship for DACA recipients. I urge Congress to swiftly pass legislation to provide permanent protection to hundreds of thousands of Dreamers who call the US home.

[David French @DavidAFrench]

Yes indeed. And the fact that many in the GOP now completely reject this view of immigrants is one of the saddest developments of my political lifetime.

[Caitlyn Yates @yatescait]

Thread:
So far in 2022, more than 150,000 migrants have crossed the Darien Gap. In recent months, most of those migrants have been Venezuelan.

HOWEVER, 2022 is also the year with the highest recorded number of migrant arrivals from both African and Asian countries as well.

This weekend I got to visit a Ukrainian church in NYC where I stumbled on a wedding. The beautiful melodies in the church are in such contrast to the awful news of the Russian attacks on civilians. Life triumphs over death, and light over darkness. #Ukraine #SlavaUkraini

@CamenischJul @MangoLanguages Also remember each hour of language learning is cumulative. So 20 hours of language lessons in one week is equivalent to 20 weeks of lessons at one hour per week. So do a language sprint where you immerse yourself with a language helper in intense language lessons.

[Andre Mann @adventuremann]

@CamenischJul @MangoLanguages Hire a language helper among the refugees. Exchange Dari classes for English classes. Use the barefoot method and total physical response for both lessons and you’ll find both of you making much more progress than you ever did with a computer program.

I have been lawfully in the United States for 17 years (since age 10), yet had no pathway to citizenship other than marriage. A couple years ago, I decided I’d create a short film to raise awareness about this issue. Watch the full film at https://t.co/v0jnB62Z4k (1/5).
