@AARP Why not suggest your members direct their calls to the White House instead of Social Security? Maybe the president can help you find your Social Security check.

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

@AARP Is AARP whistling through the graveyard? The Social Security administration call center is being cut to the bone and the agency will stop taking individual calls for help at the end of the month. What is AARP doing about this?

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

@AARP @CBSEveningNews Please tell your members what you are doing about the fact that the White House is about to end all individual Social Security administration call support.

If you received an emergency alert a few minutes ago re evacuation order re #PalisadesWildfire, it was sent in error.

@drpatrick @latimes Why does this comment strike me as poorly timed spitballing by someone who has failed to use his enormous and powerful platform to strengthen the civic life of LA (or the nation?)

@robrtgreene on last weeks shameful cowardice at the @latimes and @washingtonpost last week. Billionaires without balls. https://t.co/hTqXKtU2l0

@katie_robertson @maxwelltani The paper has called this an election of tremendous consequence but when the owner decides to hedge his bets with a future demagogue, the editors decide there's no need to get riled up. Shameful. Really shameful.

@davidfolkenflik @jmsummers Why would PSS do this? One word. Cowardice.

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

@LAJourno @latimes I am proud to have canceled my subscription today. Conflating soon-skiing's political interference and the need for a solid economic foundation for news conflates apples and oranges.

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

@maxwelltani @davidfolkenflik The whole staff should up and leave. What kind of independence credibility or pride can you have with a publisher who swoops in with capricious requests whenever.

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

@LZGranderson Thanks for this. I wish it were repeated daily!! A small note to add: the social determinants of health take an increasing toll over a lifetime so you see larger disparities over a lifetime because of economic disadvantages. That's obviously not Mitch McConnells problem. Lol

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

@pahlkadot Grateful for the book and the guts it took to write it. Hoping someone has already sent you this wapo piece. Another classic example. https://t.co/M3fnGALynZ

@mhdcd8 It's easy to hurl crap from the peanut gallery - as these comments make clear. Being brave, centered and uplifting without a misstep, ever, is a standard maintained only by those who hurl risk-nothing crap from the bench. Thanks for posting councilman!

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

Impressive! Not sure most people have wrapped their heads around the progress made on #homelessness in LA in the last 100 days.

[Mayor Karen Bass @MayorOfLA]

On my first day on the job, I didn’t go straight to City Hall – I went directly to the Emergency Operations Center to declare a state of emergency on homelessness.

Since then, we’ve taken bold action–and we will continue our work to confront this crisis. https://t.co/7cuOwp66ZH

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

@NSlayton @TheProspect Thanks for paying attention to this. The actions of the LA city Council & the County supervisors over the next few months will have immense impact on whether the pandemic results in a massive eviction tsunami or the adoption of some reasonable tenant protections. Fights not over!

[Barbara Osborn @bosborn]

Headline of new Rand report ought to be "we used different methodology, used a different data set and guess what? We came up with different numbers!" We need constructive actionable #homeless research. This could have been helpful, instead... https://t.co/AmSZsbyDcM
