espn decided this was an urgent matter they should push to the Home Screen of your phone asap instead of the inane ramblings of an elderly fascist with soggy cardboard for brains

Some people think politics is when you yell at people online whose posts you didn’t understand.

If other people's children are fair targets in war, then so are yours.

But given the intense propaganda around it we are all subject to from the time we are pre-verbal, this is not easy.

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

You gotta hand it to Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris: they were the only two people who predicted that Donald Trump would be bad

Policing is very hard to justify if you think about it critically even a little.

People take arrest power for granted but when it used against people who aren’t typically subject to it, its nature becomes much clearer.

I was arrested at home by NYPD detectives and charged under a stalking law for sending faxes to New York City's chamber of commerce

Mayor For Life. The Incredible Story of Marion Barry Jr. by Marion Barry Jr and Omar Tyree

If you didnt grow up in the D.C. area, you probably only know 1-2 things about this man.

No one mentions his tenure as the 1st chairman of SNCC. Or that he created the largest Black middle class in the country. And presided over "chocolate city" from 1979 to 1999.

Happy 90th to Marion Barry Jr

This story is wild. As far as I can tell from the body camera clips I watched, the footage shows MPD special operations strategizing their forcible entry into private property without a warrant, based on the say-so of a political appointee with nothing more than a stack of print outs.

yes everyone is desperate to hear the opinion of mayor sixteen shots and a coverup. I'm sure he's got a bunch of great ideas that actually meet the moment.

Not getting into the Discourse but there's a reason why every company worth the name hires professionals to talk to heir user/consumer base and don't allow every employee to go B2C and tell the public what they really think of them and maybe the folk running this app should consider that

Murray Edelman had a line β€œonly in bad novels and comic books do people knowingly do evil and boast about it.” I no longer believe this to be true.

Haven’t been feeling great but had a couple of students express gratitude today in ways that made my heart grow three times over.

I have now seen ads by two different health insurers talking about how they are transforming the system. They are trying to head off what is to come.
