It’s crucial to note that the DEMOCRATS are the ones leading these efforts. Trump sucks, but Dems are the ones pushing these Heritage Foundation-backed laws through & making them more extreme

None of this is about protecting kids. The co-sponsor of the Kids Online Safety Act said we need to pass it to protect kids from “the transgender” in society. Jonathan Haidt, the right wing reactionary who has boosted these laws alongside the Heritage Foundation has spread anti trans conspiracies
Social Media Bans Aren’t About Protecting Kids. They’re About Censorship and Surveillance
US politicians want to replicate Australia's draconian law prohibiting children under 16 from using social media. But experts say such bans will actually make kids 'significantly less safe online.'

Congress is about to make a huge push into online ID verification, entrenching the power of big tech and mandating that they collect even MORE data on users. Mass surveillance/censorship laws are being framed as “child safety” but they’re really abt at removing LGBTQ ppl, repro justice info, etc.

Enacting mass surveillance/censorship is a gift to big tech, these laws do NOTHING to challenge big tech’s business model, instead they reward them w the ability to collect even more data on users including children. They will put smaller and less profit driven platforms and forums out of business.
The Latest Government Gift to Big Tech and Corporate Power
Lawmakers claim new age verification laws are about ‘child safety’ – but, in reality, they expand surveillance and silence dissent.

There are no circumstances where human beings should be without food. There are no qualifications that make someone undeserving of access to food. If you are a human being, you should get food. I don’t care about ability, job status, legal status, or anything else. If people are hungry, feed them.

Retired Army Sgt. Brian Wofford spoke to me this morning at the Oklahoma City #NoKings protest. Didn’t expect him to be carrying his DD214 so I asked some warmup questions like when he got out and whether his injury was service-related.
He paused while describing the car bomb in Iraq to say this:

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.
Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

📽️ WATCH: Andry Omar Blanco Bonilla, one of the men Trump sent to CECOT, told our reporters he was beaten the moment the plane landed.
He says when he regained consciousness and saw the polished concrete floor, the bright lights, the men in uniform, he just asked God: What am I doing here? Why?

This has always been the GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode deficits
3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.
