Police in the USA began as the slave patrol. Why are we trying to reform or reimagine it?

[The Daily Show @TheDailyShow]

Need more proof that America’s got a serious policing problem? Let’s talk about Daunte Wright’s death and Caron Nazario’s violent traffic stop at the hands of police.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

When Philando Castile was murdered by police at a traffic stop in 2016, Minnesota invested $12 million in police training.

Where was that training when they killed Daunte Wright just 10 miles from where Derek Chauvin sits on trial for murdering George Floyd?

[prance @bocxtop]

see how they change the reasons why they have to keep shooting us? first it was “he failed to comply” then “i feared for my life” next it’s “sorry it was an accident” we are fucking people man. so evil

The officer who murdered Daunte Wright was also involved in the murder of 21 year-old Kobe Dimock-Heisler.

He was on the autism spectrum. Police shot him six times after his grandfather had asked the dispatcher to “forget it.”

Minneapolis Police killed a man this evening by fatally shooting him while he was in a car in the Holiday gas station parking lot at 36th Street and Cedar Avenue.

[ashley fairbanks @ziibiing]

The Minneapolis Police have shot and killed another person, just about 12 blocks from where George Floyd was murdered.

My heart is with my city tonight, and with the woman who watched the person in the car with her die.

[First Avenue @FirstAvenue]

The difference in votes in Georgia is a sold-out show at First Avenue. Every vote counts and every state must count every vote.

Your vote matters. Your vote counts.

How severe is the spread of COVID-19 in your community?

As cases surge in many states, a new color-coding tool backed by a coalition of top scientists aims to give an apples-to-apples way of comparing outbreak severity — down to the county level.

The people angrily denouncing Rage Against the Machine for Tom Morello's leftist politics is one of the more hilarious things I have ever seen on the internet. WHAT MACHINE DID YOU THINK THEY HAVE BEEN RAGING AGAINST FOR DECADES? THE ICE CREAM MACHINE? THE ATM? LAWNMOWERS?

I adore @lizzo with all my heart.

This is dead on.

In March, President Trump gave the impression that Americans would easily be able to access COVID-19 testing at national chain retail locations convenient to them.

The numbers are clear: That never happened.

It’s hard to remain peaceful when the NYPD is doing stuff like this
