You never really hear panicked stories about cops being exposed to fentanyl anymore. Almost like it was a completely fake crisis invented by law enforcement and perpetuated by the media while Biden was in office.

The airport security lines we're seeing now have a specific cause, but the larger problems with air travel have been building for years, a combination of a hollowed-out public sector and creeping privatization, as @rkuttnerwrites explains.

Friday night, rank-and-file union members and leaders came together to launch Labor for Claire. This is the movement that raised me — and together, we're going to win.

Absolutely Lawless when it comes to killing and stealing land. Inside and out.
“Since 2020 Israeli soldiers and settlers have killed at least 1,100 Palestinian civilians in the occupied West Bank, at least a quarter of whom were children, UN data shows. No one has been charged over any of these deaths.”

The top 1% now has $53 trillion in wealth, while the bottom 50% holds less than $5 trillion.
How do we close the gap? Actually tax the rich.
This is how states are pushing for equitable taxes–and relief for the working class. Thread:

wait, this approach to getting heckled is pretty good, but I'm surprised he didn't take the time-tested approach of looking mortally offended and flatly saying "I'm speaking" over and over
David Schwartz@DavidSchwartz70
Zohran Mamdani is being heckled right now at a press conference in Brooklyn, NY, by someone whose words I can't hear, but watch how he's dealing with it. Mamdani has the unique skill of knowing how to handle and walk into every room and engage with people, no matter how toxic they are or how their feelings are against him. And many times, make them feel heard. Elected officials, nonprofit and religious leaders, advocates, and activists on both sides of the political spectrum who met with him told me that. Don't take my word for it, President Trump is pretty public about it. That's why he's currently the mayor of New York City. If you don't like his politics or you're like me, who opposed his candidacy and is still troubled by some of his actions and statements, then don't take this post the wrong way; read into it how you should be better to communicate your message. Yes, putting ego aside for any public figure is not easy.

Florida had an election this week, and Trump voted by mail. Again.
It's almost like mail-in voting is convenient and secure.

i am begging parents not to send your child to this school. early education is a foundation for the rest of your child’s life. it needs to be done by a real teacher.
please please for the love of god, do not destroy your child’s potential by sending them to this garbage school.

🇪🇨 🇺🇸 A New York Times investigation raises serious questions about a March 6 airstrike that War Secretary Hegseth touted on social media as proof the U.S. military was “now bombing Narco Terrorists on land.”
The target, according to the Times, appears to have been a 350-acre cattle and dairy farm in San Martín (a remote farming village in northern Ecuador), not a drug trafficking compound.
Farm workers, including 32-year-old carpenter Miguel who owns the farm, told the Times that Ecuadorean soldiers arrived three days earlier, proceeded to detain four Colombian laborers, beating them severely, and subjecting them to waterboarding and electric shocks, before dousing nearby structures with gasoline and setting them alight.
They said troops returned on March 6 to film themselves bombing the still-smoldering ruins, producing footage later publicized by Ecuador and the U.S. governments as the destruction of a traffickers’ training camp.
The Pentagon said the strike was conducted “jointly” with Ecuador, though Times sources said U.S. troops had no direct involvement in the bombing itself.
Ecuador claimed to have recovered weapons and evidence of illicit activity but released no photographs, as it typically does following drug seizures.
“It’s a lie that 50 people trained here,” Miguel told the Times, standing amid his dead chickens. “There’s no logic.”

La clase trabajadora merece recibir inversiones por parte de nuestro estado. Cuando Albany asigna fondos insuficientes a la ciudad de Nueva York, las familias latinas —y todos nuestros vecinos— pagan el precio.

I'm happy to announce this new paper — we compile evidence on the extraordinary harms caused by IMF and World Bank structural adjustment programmes in the global South since the 1980s.
The empirical record is devastating: documented negative impacts on wages, poverty, inequality, maternal mortality, infant mortality, healthcare access, etc.
SAPs inflicted misery on the periphery in order to curtail their consumption, scupper independent development, and make labour and resources more cheaply available for the core.

moeny that should be spent paying actual humans to teach our nation’s children is being wasted on barely usable tech that is increasingly corrupted by AI.
school boards need to wake up and start canceling contracts with these vultures.
English
we don’t talk enough, i think, on how the push of tech in education is a theft of our children’s education spending by the tech industry. students and teachers don’t like all the tech they’re forced to use due to districts signing lucrative licensing contracts.
Boze the Library Owl 😴🧙♀️@SketchesbyBoze
They’re trying to eliminate human teachers at a time when less than a third of students can read on a basic level. Students don’t need fancy tech, which has already made learning nearly impossible. We’re spending billions to produce a nation of illiterates.

Trump's wind farm NIMBYism has been taken to the most absurd heights, as the government is now paying TotalEnergies $1 billion to not build wind farms at a time of energy crisis.

Today's #ootd is this 1942 Leron peignoir and jacket owned by Katharine Hepburn. The jacket is made of ivory chiffon appliquéd with a satin leaf on front, which is then closed by a series of buttons. The peignior itself features a heavily draped bodice. #Fashionhistory
