“In the spirit of a broad United Front and coalition strategy, I am pursuing the nomination of the Green Party for President of the United States. Go to https://t.co/acRgC5GbOk for more information to continue to support this unprecedented effort to empower precious poor and working people here and abroad. I thank the volunteers of the People's Party for the initial launch!”

We have oceans of waste. Amazon’s plastic packaging waste alone could encircle the globe 500 times: https://t.co/QqVFhbPvJH. We need to do better.

Use less, buy less, waste less.

If you’re in Montgomery County, here is one solid step you can take towards helping the rent stabilization fight. We just need to convince one more council member to pass a bill; It’ll just take a minute!

This is insane.

Moderna is planning to charge $130 for its Covid vaccine.

It only costs $2.85 to make.

Taxpayers paid 100% of Moderna’s Covid vaccine development.

We paid $2,500,000,000.

This is the people’s vaccine. Shame @Moderna_tx into changing course.

3. Viral infections can trigger autoimmune disease.

If you're hoping getting sick with a virus is going to "boost" your immune system and make you healthier, that is quite the gamble.

Wild that the groomer discourse means people are being accusatory towards lgbt people and not the nuclear/natal families in which most child abuse occurs.

You're side-eyeing (mostly childless) queers when you should be interrogating parents, uncles/aunts, grandparents of kids🤷🏾‍♂️

“I don't care how much theory you got, if it don't have any practice applied to it, then that theory happens to be irrelevant.”

The FBI and Chicago PD murdered Black Panther chairman Fred Hampton in his sleep on this day in 1969. He was only 21 years old.

it’s so fucking funny that elon musk would be like “twitter is a hardcore coding company now” and then ask engineers to email him code weekly because he doesn’t know how to use github

[Ed Markey @SenMarkey]

A @washingtonpost reporter was able to create a verified account impersonating me—I’m asking for answers from @elonmusk who is putting profits over people and his debt over stopping disinformation. Twitter must explain how this happened and how to prevent it from happening again.

[matt @razamattazzle]

@washingtonpost Sure, blame the voters

[matt @razamattazzle]

Some realness coming from NPR's coverage of #COP27:

"The U.S. is the country most responsible for current global warming because of past greenhouse gas emissions."

No mincing words.

@thehill @DrOz Why is this news...

[matt @razamattazzle]

I do the vote thing. You should too.

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

No viable path left to 1.5C.

From today’s White House briefing: “Under President Biden, oil and natural gas production has increased, and we are on track to hit the highest production in our country’s history next year.”

Utterly tragic for the Earth and our future. Words fail.

The oligarchy is successfully brainwashing lots of us, it looks like.

[Morning Consult @MorningConsult]

Today in “More racist history I didn’t know about”: the US military demands segregation—in England. This is quite a story.

[Lotes ×͜× @BigLotes_]

To think I have EXTENSIVE knowledge about WW1&2 from the American and British perspectives and not once did I know this tragedy occurred. We really need to start teaching our own history, home and abroad.

[matt @razamattazzle]

if elon really wanted to help humanity, he'd donate the many billions of dollars he's spending on twitter. it's just such a farce.

[Gillian Tett @gilliantett]

Fascinating from @propublica...and another example of why we need independent investigation groups...
