Unsettling that Georgia Senators @ReverendWarnock and @Ossoff remain silent on the first-ever US police killing of a climate activist. The Georgia police narrative about the killing of Tort is highly suspect. Show some courage. Ask the tough questions. Demand the answers.

Environmental activists are not terrorists.
BREAKING: Police affidavit in Atlanta claims a climate activist is a "terrorist" for "occupying a tree house" in the forest while posting on social media. Absurd. At most this is trespassing. Police in Georgia must stop criminalizing legitimate protest.⤵️ s3.documentcloud.org/documen…

FYI, the point is to make it harder for bad guys to get them.

Legislation has to be federal. CA can pass tough gun laws but people bring guns from other states. Most NRA members want tougher gun laws btw. People are free to drive cars but there are still traffic laws. People are free to bear arms but there should still be gun safety laws

We *can't* solve the tragic and devastating gun violence problem without stricter gun laws.

Cruel system this.
In some states, parents who don’t pay foster care bills could lose their kids forever. Those bills can be pricey, and it’s often the poorest families who must pay. "It is a permanent, irrevocable penalty because you happen to be poor,” an attorney says. n.pr/3R3W3K0

After inflation, people making $7.25 minimum wage are earning less now than they were 60 yrs ago. The minimum wage hasn't been raised in 13 yrs, the longest gap govt. has gone without upping it since it the system was introduced in 1938. That's basically a war on the poor.

Where is the footage??
BREAKING: A widely-circulated photo clearly shows members of the SWAT team in Atlanta that killed climate activist Manuel Terán were wearing body cameras. Terán's mother says her child was assassinated. So where is the footage? @defendATLforest @GBI_GA

The very notion of a “cop city” in America is repellent. It is nothing short of infrastructure for a police state. Say No a thousand times and then 1,000 times more. #StopCopCity
Reminder that before Atlanta councilmembers voted to approve Cop City, they listened to 17 hours of public comment over TWO DAYS from Atlanta residents that OVERWHELMINGLY opposed the project.

Wow.
If Bernie's Social Security bill was signed into law last year, Elon Musk would have paid $2.9 billion more in taxes, no one making $250,000 or less would've paid a penny more in taxes, benefits would have gone up by $2,400 a year & Social Security would be solvent for 75 years.

“Need independent prosecutor with no ties to police.”
BREAKING: The mother of the first climate activist killed by US police says her son actually was murdered in cold blood. Georgia police have produced zero evidence to justify their self-defense claim. Need independent prosecutor with no ties to police. theguardian.com/us-news/2023…
