I’ve had the honor of serving as my union’s elected co-chair since September 2023.

[CPD/A Staff Union @cpdunion]

On May 29, Popular Democracy (@popdemoc) abruptly announced a massive restructuring, including the lay off of 21 workers, effective mid-July.
Twelve laid-off staff belong to our union, including some of Popular Democracy’s most experienced and longtime staff members.

@TweeterSunset @JakeSherman reconciliation bills pass by simple majority vote so are not subject to the 60 vote threshold https://t.co/7XNfGThtwA

[sarah hagi @KindaHagi]

this epstein stuff… it just really breaks my heart to be reminded how the most powerful people do whatever they want to the most vulnerable and get away with it. idk, feels insane how little focus there seems to be on these victims

@offbeatorbit statement just dropped and it's rancid

[Abby Ang @angmedieval]

@SenWhitehouse Senator, are you going to vote NO on the DHS funding bill? I assume so but I haven't seen a statement

[Abby Ang @angmedieval]

Senator Whitehouse, are you going to vote YES or NO on the DHS funding bill?

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

Video shows five on one, he’s down, and they shoot him.

This is not police work.

[Dan Lamothe @DanLamothe]

"Videos analyzed by The New York Times appear to contradict accounts given by Homeland Security officials about the shooting. They said the man approached Border Patrol agents with a handgun and the intent to 'massacre' them. Footage of the encounter shows the man holding a phone in his hand, not a gun, when agents take him to the ground."

Alex Pretti’s dad: “He cared about people deeply & was very upset with what was happening... He thought it was terrible, you know, kidnapping children, just grabbing people off the street. He cared about those people, and he knew it was wrong, so he did participate in protests.”

[BreakThrough News @BTnewsroom]

BREAKING: Boston emergency rally in response to latest ICE killing in MN. Protestors chant, "We're not cold, we're not afraid! [Minneapolis] taught us to be brave!"

[Abby Ang @angmedieval]

Senator Reed, are you going to vote YES or NO for the DHS funding bill?

[Senator Jack Reed @SenJackReed]

I’ve seen the horrific video of another fatal ICE shooting. It’s clear that ICE agents are doing more harm than good in Minneapolis. Time for reforms.  They aren’t effectively doing their jobs or keeping Americans safe – they are endangering people.

one of my favorite meteorologists :( I set alerts for his tweets during hurricane season because I know I'll get reliable and accurate information and not AI junk

Dear ADHDers,

You don't need motivation.
You need systems.

My favorite part of the loloverruled priv leaks are that you can see his narcissism taking over his brain in real time like the green goblin mask. A supersized ego spurred entirely by the rush of being a niche internet microceleb that started from modding a law school meme group

i have a friend, well over 6’, jacked, well-read, in touch with his feelings, ethical vegan, trilingual, built a little different, wants companionship more than anything, but can’t get his creator to make him a female mate
