Melissa Lucio asserted her innocence over 100 times in the interrogation but officers refused to listen to her, sending the clear message that the interrogation wasn’t going to stop until she told them what they wanted to hear. @CBSMornings

#ATX #COVID19

[Greg Casar @GregCasar]

IMPORTANT news #ATX:

We are in a dangerous #COVID19 spike. UT experts show that our ICU’s will be overrun, unless:

1) 😷 *everyone* regardless of vaccine status masks up when indoors & near others

2) Get your 💉 - almost all serious hospitalizations are unvaccinated people

Isaiah Brown is in intensive care after a sheriff's deputy shot him 10 times outside his home in Virginia yesterday.

Mr. Brown was unarmed, carrying just his cell phone. Bystanders say the deputy appeared to open fire without warning and for no reason.

This is the 4th uprising in 4 months. Same jail. Same demands.

On average, those detained at CJC have waited 344 days before receiving a probable cause hearing. Our pretrial detention system is cruel and inhumane. This system cannot be reformed. Decarceration must be a priority.

@alyssadehayes @thorharris666 I liked Nazi hole punch, but I think you're right.

Texas lifting COVID restrictions pains me deeply. A distraction from deadly winter storms, it will likely be popular. But best science says it's far too soon. We're so close. Vaccines bring hope. Hope. Remember that? Can we please not spike footballs before we hit the end zone?

“A riot is the language of the unheard.” - Dr. MLK Jr.

I want to talk to my constituents in the window. Their lives and their rights must be protected.

My team and I are working to ensure that the urgent needs of people who are incarcerated are not ignored.

Merry Christmas to all. Except Trump. And McConnell. And the rest of the scumbags that disrespect the very laws & liberties actual patriots died for. Y’all can get fucked.

[Jeff Tiedrich @itsJeffTiedrich]

we have claimed, for electoral vote purposes, that the president of the united states is a fucking lunatic

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

It’s tempting to use the analogy of rats fleeing a sinking ship to describe the growing number of Republican elected officials starting to speak out against Donald Trump. But that's really not fair to rats, who tend not to be complicit in driving ships to the bottom of the sea.

@DanRather A girl has no president.
But a girl has a list of names.

[Jens Hanefeld @GermanAmbUSA]

Hannah Arendt, a German Jew, political theorist and philosopher, was born on this day in 1906.

One of her many legacies: Totalitarianism can flourish where people systematically refuse to engage with reality, and are ready to replace reason with ideology and outright fiction.
