This was not police work; it was murder.
“I can’t breathe,” Edward Bronstein yelled as officers pinned him down after a traffic stop in California, a newly released video shows. He died shortly after.
The incident occurred two months before George Floyd was killed by the police in Minneapolis. nyti.ms/3uafCVB

Imagine an America that says Enough! with our paternalism & imperialism in Latin America, ends sanctions against Venezuela that do nothing but hurt ordinary people, & shows enough respect to LA countries to let them govern themselves without our meddling.
"There are many layers of sanctions in place now, but the most impactful sanctions were probably those of 2019 targeting the oil sector directly."

Good point, Bernie💙
If Jeff Bezos can afford a $500 million yacht, a $23 million mansion with 25 bathrooms and a rocket ship to blast a comedian to outer space, you know what? Amazon can afford to give its employees a $3 raise. I stand in strong solidarity with the Amazon workers walkout.

I've listened to several highly placed women activists who worked in Afghanistan or worked closely with women there, who have a very different take on this that officialdom's "we couldn't have done it any better." It could have been done *much, much* better vis a vis those women.
Yes of course we needed to go. But according to many female activists whose views were and are consistently erased about this, it's simply not accurate to say there was no way to avoid doing a better job at it, vis a vis the women were by far the most vulnerable to Taliban abuse.

Only if women don’t matter, Matt. Thousands of women whose escape should have been prioritized were neglected and abandoned. The evacuation could have been achieved far more humanely and effectively. The narrative that “there was no easy way to do it” is not an excuse for that.

Fun interview at SXSW in Austin this weekend. Much to discuss about what’s going on in the world today. youtube.com/xXi-b-zPUWQ

First of all, we do not have time. Secondly, dirty energy forces do everything they can to suppress the development of those new technologies.
