#FlintWaterCrisis “Lest we forget, the Flint water crisis was caused not just by poorly treated water, “but by opaque, undemocratic decision-making at the state and local levels, “and lack of responsiveness to resident concerns by all levels of government.” — @benjaminjpauli
“We are traumatised from being lied to by the same people that continue to tell us everything’s fine…”
“We are traumatised from being lied to by the same people that continue to tell us everything’s fine…”
The short explain: “Officials failed to apply corrosion inhibitors [orthophosphate] to the water “which resulted in lead from aging pipes leaching into the water supply, “exposing around 100,000 residents to elevated lead levels.” #FlintWaterCrisis npr.org/2024/04/25/124…
TFW when #Portland officials tried to blame private property plumbing and are still getting away with it. “…improperly treated water that damaged pipes that created the lead-contaminated, undrinkable drinking.” #Flint npr.org/2024/04/25/124…
“Would you not rather have jumped in too soon, despite the law, to protect the children of Flint, “and be hauled into Congress to testify & explain about why you stepped in too quickly to safeguard health, “as opposed to why you didn’t act soon enough?” @SenDuckworth 2016HCOA

“Justice will come in many forms, including holding those who poisoned our water accountable, “giving residents relief from high water bills…”

On the 10th anniversary of #Flint #WaterCrisis icymi 4/24/24a Council mtg: EPA’s *health-centered* lead in🚰 reg revisions are coming soon 🙌 With multiple alarm bells (L), we asked Council + Mayor to have bureau chiefs explain why why WHY they don’t want to get the lead out🤷🏻♀️

It’s kind of bizarre to feel the need to say it, but it’s a very very bad sign for a society if one cannot freely protest a genocide, ethnic cleansing, war crimes, mass graves, and the mass incineration of children. That is a very bad place for a culture to be.
The Multnomah County Commmission matters. Former Mayor Sam Adams is running for District 2, and we are deeply concerned about his possible reelection to public office despite a record of lying, bullying, and abusing. Please share widely. We deserve better.

@portlandwater i.e., you're on your own, but continue to pay your water bill, with no discounts, even though we can't provide you with safe drinking water.

This Black student singing gospel (which emerged from the souls and spirits of slaves) while the Black police (who likely heard the same song in church but are doing work descended from slave patrols) is truly something to behold.

You already know this, but it bears repeating that in Oregon, the Secretary of State is the first in line to be Governor if the sitting Governor leaves before their term ends (in other words, we don't have a Lieutenant Governor).
State Senator Manning's voters pamphlet statement is so good. For example: "Under his watch, our waterways and forests are not for sale."
Multnomah County Voters’ Pamphlet, *Nonpartisan Candidates* (p.77) Mike Schmidt “Party Affiliation: Democrat” “As the only Democrat in the race…” 🤔 fwiw Nathan Vasquez was a registered Republican until 2017, when he switched to non-affiliated.
Excellent! Great use of the Clean Energy Fund: big investment in climate-friendly/resilient infrastructure - PPS is one of the biggest employers and property owners in the city - and support for improving students' health & educational experiences. opb.org/article/2024/0…
Reykjavík Iceland. Bracing the cold for Gaza.. 🇮🇸 🤝🇵🇸✌️
Does this mean a president could order the execution of supreme court justices?
Justice Sotomayor: If a president says a rival is corrupt and orders their assassination, "is that within his official acts for which he can get immunity?" Trump lawyer D. John Sauer: "It would depend on the hypothetical, but we can see that could well be an official act."
“I don’t care what it is you choose to do to resist… I care that you resist. I care that you indulge that defiant and divine spark within you that urges you in the dark crevices of your mind to stand up for what is right” never regret resisting, no matter what the future holds
I don’t care if you sneak out into the dead of night and shakily scratch ‘Free Palestine’ into an old rusted lamppost, I don’t care if you have careful conversations with apolitical friends and family members about the horrors happening with full support of western governments,…
.@EmoryUniversity faculty senate meeting is packed, faculty members outraged and seeking to censure @gregfenves, moving for vote of no confidence
just finished my workweek to read this: Nathan Vasquez just spent hundreds of thousands on an ad buy. but of course he did. a reminder who is bankrolling 27% of Vasquez's fundraising: Jordan Schnitzer, Tim Boyle, and Phil Knight. BILLIONAIRES attempting to buy the DA seat.
