NEW POLL: 53 percent of Republicans say Trump is true president hill.cm/9CQSK3j

@therecount Let the 🧢 - a-thon begin!

President Biden set a deadline of today to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, but Congress has not yet reached an agreement about the bill. WH Press Sec. Jen Psaki says “I’m not here to put a new timeline on it.”

I've been working for months on this piece about how some huge companies like XVideos—now the most visited porn site in the world—with help from Google and Paypal, profit from rape videos and illegal child sexual abuse material. They devastate kids' lives nyti.ms/3wUAf97

As stocks plummeted 37% in March 2020, 70% of small business aid went to large, publicly traded corporations. By June, a stock-market rebound made seven of the world's richest people even richer.

The rich keep getting richer: Billionaires made enough to pay for everyone’s vaccine during the pandemic, while workers lost $3.7 trillion. How did we get here? 🧵

It's hard to find market manipulation more flagrant than this, but since it's being done to protect the wealthiest and most powerful -- Wall St oligarchs who own and control the establishment wings of both parties -- it's very hard to imagine the government treating it as such:

1. Racism 2. Economic exploitation of poverty 3. Militarism These evils are bipartisan. If not mitigated, all is for naught. Let's make sure the "restructuring" is on target. If not, the burning house analogy stands. #MLKDay

In case you're wondering what QAnon group chats look like after January 6th

On September 14, 2001 -- three days after the 9/11 attack, while bodies still lay underneath the simmering rubble in lower Manhattan -- @RepBarbaraLee delivered one of the wisest and bravest speeches in the history of the House, explaining her lone vote against the AUMF. Listen:

Facebook officially silences the President of the United States. For better or worse, this will be remembered as a turning point in the battle for control over digital speech.

Is it normal/common for an apartment complex to charge a $33.84 service fee to pay your rent online?! Your answers will make the difference in the tone I use tomorrow morning when I call the new owners of my apartment complex to discuss this charge...

@chamath Too late...

The trend below can’t hold b/c 1) it will create class warfare if left unchecked and 2) many feel genuinely bad that success isn’t shared. My prediction for 2021: A new political party is founded that is Pragmatic and Centrist - electing people to try and bridge inequality.
