@FirenzeMike @CuomoPrimeTime @GeoRebekah From Donald Trump down all of covid19 detractors (like @GovRonDeSantis) must be held accountable. Prosecute them all for murder...and ancillary charges for intimidation, harassment and illegal investigations.

Nationally there’s no “second wave.” There’s one long wave. We’ve been in a plateau of around 20,000 cases and 1,000 deaths a day, largely among minority and vulnerable populations. Reopening will cause spikes, but calling them a second wave denies the reality of what’s going on.

88rising’s product is “completely anti-thinking, anti-social-involvement, anti-any kind of historical reflection,” selling a “total consumerist” experience. “When you listen, you don’t think about any issues, the only takeaway is you feel ‘cooler’." Today's essential read 👇🏽

A lot of people know Nobel Prize-winning economist Elinor Ostrom from her work on the commons.
But many might not know that some of her first research in the 1970s on policing.
It can inform the reform vs. defunding debate, with some clear empirical findings.

Sorry I missed your email, the liberal order is crumbling before my very eyes and the wildest dreams of centuries of struggle appear to be within reach, so, frankly, I don’t really give a shit what you need from me.

Police are now brutalizing everyone just to maintain their ability to brutalize black people.

We can’t reform a system that is rotten, reimagining and reconstructing a new way forward is a better approach.

Thankful for Minneapolis city council for their leadership on this.

"Let’s do this another way. Let's stop thinking our voice don’t matter and vote. Not just for the president...educate yourself and know who you’re voting for. And that’s how we're going to hit 'em."

[Robert Costa @costareports]

I'm in touch with someone who's on the governors' call with President Trump right now. They and others listening in are alarmed. The president is urging governors to take back the streets, not be "weak," and use force as the nation faces growing racial unrest.

ppl out here think ethics in tech is just about using diverse illustrations on their landing page, and not whether their apps can be used as tools of the police state
