To be clear, the judge has only tossed CIVIL suits against Trump over the Lafayette Square debacle, filed by private parties. This has zero connection to whether any CRIMINAL charges will be brought in relation to Lafayette Square.
A U.S. judge has dismissed most claims filed by the American Civil Liberties Union of D.C., Black Lives Matter and others who in lawsuits accused the Trump administration of authorizing an unprovoked attack on demonstrators in Lafayette Square last year. https://t.co/jGhxvCt853
Today I watched 200 of the finest hairs from my head circle down the drain. Getting mentally ready to rock a bald head 💪🏼 Until then, here’s me (with hair) & my mama ♥️
My name is Delina DiSanto.
I’m a registered nurse, a small business owner, and the Democrat running against Paul Gosar in #AZ04.
My opponent has 148,000 followers, I have 78,000.
Can you help me amplify our message by asking your friends to follow today?
Per this piece:
SEVENTY percent of American adults are Amazon Prime members
That's about 231M people
$12.99 per membership equals about 3 BILLION a year
Time for Bezos to start paying taxes!
The #ForThePeopleAct would help beat back Washington corruption. It would make presidential candidates release their tax returns, make Super PACs disclose their big donors, make Supreme Court justices follow a basic code of ethics, and more. Let’s get this done.
Jeff Bezos' life during the pandemic:
- $78 billion richer
- commissioned a super-yacht
- is going to space
Amazon workers' lives:
- no hazard pay
- no paid sick leave
- spied on
- underpaid
On #PrimeDay, I say: enough is enough, Jeff. Treat your workers with dignity.
First up: Connected Papers
This outputs a network graphic, list of titles and abstracts of the most relevant prior and derivative research papers connected to the one you type into the search bar. SO SO useful and much more than just a network of connected citations
Next we have the Scholarcy plug-in for Chrome. I'll note that there's a paid option that's slightly more functional, but the free version has been a Godsend for me. Pin it to your browser, open a paper, hit the button and it outputs a summary of the most important points.
I've also been using the Speechify app/Chrome plug-in. I really really wish there was an Audible-like site for reading academic papers, but Speechify is a great option. It has a really natural sounding voice, especially for an AI.
I almost forgot to include Scite_ which pulls related citations and ... get this ... the CONTEXT in which the paper was cited. It even sorts them based on mentioning, supporting, and contrasting.
