The Louisiana Secretary of State received more than 42,000 absentee ballots from voters for the May 16 election by the time Republican Gov. Jeff Landry suspended primaries last week for the state's six U.S. House races in an effort to gerrymander the congressional map.

The American military wants to conduct mass surveillance on Americans and we are relying on the morality of an AI company to say no.
Good for anthropic but wtf is Congress doing to protect us here?
@UPS I paid a $90 to overnight birthday cards & a few used items incl. medical items to my son on 9/25. After 6 phone calls, multiple incorrect tracking updates & 26 days I see that I now owe $55 in “import fees.” Pls explain what import service you feel I should be paying for.
Hey @UPS my overnight pkg still hasn’t been delivered 2 wks later. It contains important items for someone’s medical condition. Your system has told me it has cleared customs multiple times, is on its way multiple times and given me at least 2 delivery windows. Still not there.
@UPS I sent an overnight pkg on 9/25. Not only did it not arrive the next day, it has been sitting in Louisville KY since then. Your system said it has cleared customs multiple times& on its way 1x but now it says you’re preparing the pkg to clear customs. 4 agents unhelpful.
NPR is reporting on how baffled experts are that kids who are too young to have missed school due to lockdowns are ALSO falling behind. They have no clue why.
🤦♀️
@united Hey @united. You told me 11 hours ago you were “getting my bag ready” for delivery pick up. It’s still not here. I live 20 min from the airport. No phone call, nothing. I started my flight home on Tuesday. It’s Saturday. Still no bag. This is some extra level of incompetence.
@united this is my 3rd call to baggage assistance in 3 days. Have waited on hold up to 1 hr or more each time. Where is my missing bag? I’ve been told twice by an agent “it’s on the next flight .” Yet your app says it’s still in DEN 2 days later. Are your people just lying?
@united This is the last in about a dozen failures in our experience with @united this trip. Had not flown w/you for several years due to circumstance & won’t again soon.
Just this weekend a mom I’d never met told me how she has to wait for ED staff to “do it their way” and fail before listening to her about what works for her son with seizures (for the past ten years). No one can apparently be bothered to read a chart or page a consultant?
All health care providers… please read. Can’t tell you how many parents have stories of being dismissed by hospital staff for legitimate concerns. That’s just the ones I’ve heard. Please acknowledge parent autonomy and competency.
Two years ago today we discharged from a hellish admission.
Eddie developed BP issues that were not under control at discharge. Nephrology attending told me to monitor at home.
Oncology attending refused my request for a BP cuff…
@SecRubio what a legacy you are leaving.

To Republicans in Congress: are there any limits to what you will allow him to do? Are you going to let him take the library too?

Washington Post headline: “It’s called the Library of Congress. But Trump claims it’s his.”
Today Smith announced that she's changing Alberta's laws to gain complete control over how environmental data is collected to try and prevent the feds from accessing information without her permission.
Because she owns the data, not Oil & Gas companies.
