Do Trump’s caddies get trophies too when he wins all those club championships?

An ICE agent pepper sprayed a woman in New York for videotaping. Recording in public is protected by the First Amendment. He must be held accountable 💯

A fully masked ICE agent pepper sprayed a woman in New York yesterday merely for videotaping. This is what tyranny looks like in Trump’s America. Imagine if Biden had Trump supporters pepper sprayed for videotaping.

HOMAN: We want the American people to see what the ICE officer sees when he takes action REPORTER: But then why did the Trump administration roll back what the Biden administration was trying do to get body cams on officers? HOMAN: Look, that's a question above me

Trump refuses to sign a bill that would make housing cheaper for you because he rather make voting harder for you!

@soblackandblue @optionsjunkiie @RichardHanania Crime is a symptom of the real problem... Poverty. And not just any poverty. Insular generational poverty where a different way of life isn't even imagined. Poverty is the real problem.

If your bank forced you to legally put a certain amount of your paycheck every payday for 30 years into a savings account for your "retirement," didn't give you interest, then when you were getting ready to retire, said "we're only going to give you 70% of your money back, because we can't afford to pay you the full amount." Would you accept that? Vote every Republican out.

Perfect weather in NYC to walk on the right side of the sidewalk. Let’s all go outside and walk on the right side of the sidewalk

If you’re wondering why so many people are so concerned about the current Ebola outbreak… “It was just over a year ago that Elon Musk gleefully declared that they were throwing USAID into the wood chipper. And you may recall that Elon Musk also sheepishly said at his first Cabinet meeting that he mistakenly canceled Ebola prevention…”

HOLY CRAP Trump actually accomplished a miracle. Here is what he got out of Iran: - Reduce its stockpile of enriched uranium by about 98% - Limit uranium enrichment to 3.67% purity (far below weapons-grade) - Cut the number of installed centrifuges by roughly two-thirds - Only enrich uranium at one declared site (Natanz) - Stop enrichment activities at Fordow and convert it into a research facility - Redesign the Arak heavy-water reactor so it could not easily produce weapons-grade plutonium - Ship out or dilute excess enriched uranium Allow extensive inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Permit continuous monitoring of nuclear facilities and supply chains - Accept “snap” inspections under expanded monitoring rules - Avoid building new heavy-water reactors for years - Stay within strict limits on uranium stockpile size and centrifuge development for set periods ranging from 10–25 years Ooops, sorry! That was the JCPOA that Obama signed with Iran, only to have him tear it up, kill 140 kids, get hundreds of Americans injured, 13 killed, and gas prices to surge 50%.

@TheKanehB Pagers used lower frequencies than current cell phones. Lower frequencies can penetrate more materials, and travel farther with less energy loss. But, they can't carry as much data as the frequencies used for cells. Two way pagers were less reliable than one way pagers.

@RVAwonk The only explanation I can think of for their confidence is that rooms might be very negatively pressured, making the mask just to stop a rapid air expression like a cough or a sneeze. But I agree, an abundance of caution is better.

@loubd0gg @BoraprR8538 @WhopperCho58993 @LegacyProgramVP Jim Crow laws were still in place until 1965. There were people around in 1965 who were born as slaves. This isn't from some distant time long ago. I wasn't that long ago. The children and grandchildren of people born as slaves are still with us. The pain is still fresh.

The collapse of trust in science is going to go down in history as one of the most sad, bizarre, and destructive social contagions of modern times. We fed billions, cured diseases and powered nations - yet people ran toward conspiracies instead.

@renaglebagel @swd2 @FBIDirectorKash @FBINewark I propose automatic voter registration, a holiday on election day, and a tax credit for everyone who votes.

@renaglebagel @swd2 @FBIDirectorKash @FBINewark My point is that we should be making it easier for eligible voters to vote and not harder. I agree that we need a way to deal with fraud, but that is a much smaller issue than getting Americans to actually vote.

@renaglebagel @swd2 @FBIDirectorKash @FBINewark Expecting that people who work multiple jobs and are stretched thin by personal obligations would register yearly is crazy work. Not that this is what you're advocating for, but I wanted to address your claim of having to register every year and it being easy.

@renaglebagel @swd2 @FBIDirectorKash @FBINewark Got it! So you're simping to disenfranchise voters from.... The Netherlands.

@renaglebagel @swd2 @FBIDirectorKash @FBINewark I'm not stomping for fraud. I'm advocating against laws that would disenfranchise many because of an infinitesimally small chance of fraud.
