NEW: Sean Duffy frequently calls safety his “top priority” as transportation secretary. But I spent months wading through regulatory notices and found something far different: that USDOT has been delaying, weakening and killing dozens of safety rules, many opposed by the transportation industry.🧵

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!)

Political violence is wrong. Gun violence is terrible. We can do something. Make it harder to commit gun violence. Thoughts and prayers help no one, the time for action was like, decades ago, but late is better than never.

We need a huge cross-section of society, engaging in diverse tactics- not just protest, but strikes, slowdowns, leaks, refusals, gumming up the works, ridiculous art, coordinated disruption, a whole range of things to make it impossible for those who intend evil and do harm to execute their plans.

Gaza is starving
Palestinians seeking food are being killed by the IDF. It's time for the entire world to say enough.

79 people shot in Gaza over the weekend: There is no excuse for starving people and then opening fire on civilians desperately lining up for food. None.

Congress must not give Netanyahu another penny of unconditional military aid.

Kamala Harris campaigned on making home care part of Medicare, which would’ve greatly eased the issue of caring for our parents.

But Trump won so we not only didn’t get that, we’re getting devastation of nursing homes as well.

This is going to ruin a lot of families.

Republican abortion bans are making it more deadly to be pregnant in America.

Routine care is being denied, and women are being forced to nearly bleed to death before they can get help. www.propublica.org/article/texa...
Miscarriage Is Increasingly Dangerous for Women in Texas, Our Analysis Shows. Here’s How We Did It.
Using seven years of hospital discharge data, we found that the number of blood transfusions during emergency room visits for first-trimester miscarriage shot up by 54% since Texas banned abortion.

The Trump admin said the Everglades detention camp would be for the “worst of the worst.”

Four men sent there so far have nothing on their record other than recent arrests for diving without a license, and were likely only arrested due to racial profiling, as Adam’s excerpt shows.

Ted Cruz cut $200M in funding for NOAA weather forecasting before deadly Texas floods.

“More than 600 employees have exited the NWS amid a Trump administration push to shrink the government workforce, leaving many offices short-staffed of meteorologists and other support workers.”
Sen. Ted Cruz stripped weather forecasting funds from Trump's megabill. Then the floods came.
Among other things, he removed $150 million slated to improve modeling, predictions, and public communications.

It doesn't matter if they are ever coming for you.

It was always ever already too much that they were coming for anyone.

MUST WATCH: Oceanside CA: Militarized DHS (HSI) smashed windows, assault rifles drawn, tossed flashbangs and sent drones into the apartment which had 2 kids inside. They then told neighbors they were going to use tear gas, and they’d probably be exposed. Please share widely. WTF

This is insane. There is a madman in Washington creating fiscal policy that will bankrupt America, stifle innovation, and is just morally reprehensible.

But a “socialist” who wants to be mayor of NYC is what causes Wall St to panic?

Just clowning on themselves.
