RT @ScottHech: Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart runs a brutal COVID infested jail in Chicago currently caging 5500 people. Nearly back to pre-pandemic levels. No ability to social distance. Deaths & infections. When a federal judge ruled he need to improve conditions, he fought back. https://t.co/EwlcQD5Kst
RT @rulajebreal: Syrian @AFP photojournalist Ameer Al-Halabi-who fled Syria’s war —was assaulted by cops in #Paris while covering protests against 🇫🇷 police brutality & a law giving cops immunity...THIS, a week after a black man was beaten by cops captured on video shouting racist slurs at him. https://t.co/ROW6DjNYgm

RT @DrEricDing: DISGUSTING—Just learned something worse than McKinsey consulting being paid ~$4 mil to give simple advice on #COVID19... ➡️@McKinsey concocted plan to give a kickback to every opioid sold and dispense—all while knowing it’ll cause overdoses & addictions. https://t.co/nHwj3F6f63 https://t.co/x359UH7HUu
They never stop saying dumb shit. What it does, though, is tell you what they really think about the past. In the scheme of truly horrible things done in the name of this country, I’d certainly rank hundreds of years of slavery, & all of its cruelty, above the election of Trump. https://t.co/O5CBZR33Bi
RT @Cleavon_MD: 🧵On my last ER shift, there were NO accepting hospitals for my ICU patients. Across Arizona, ⬆️HCW illness, ⬆️nursing ratios & ⬇️PPE. We need HELP!! This is not "living with the virus" it's dying from the virus. We need a shutdown @dougducey https://t.co/aJV2be8Jqx https://t.co/32F2ruUQTK
RT @RealJusticePAC: People across the country are tired of police getting away with brutality and murder. This week, DA @chesaboudin took a historic step forward for police accountability: he charged an officer with manslaughter for the first time in SF. Cops are not above the law. Period. https://t.co/O18PZrDjJv
RT @CoriBush: The night before Thanksgiving, California Highway Patrol, with weapons drawn, used battering rams to violently remove people from homes. In a pandemic. This is why we need to defund. Our taxpayer money should be used to help people, not put their lives in danger. https://t.co/VHf7M8FSdY

RT @DrEricDing: Ummm, embarrassing—Trump’s WH delegation led by Robert O’Brien visits Vietnam 🇻🇳. They get hotel served in full PPE. US flight crew not allowed by Vietnam govt to stay in Vietnam. Naturally... O’Brien’s flight crew later tests #COVID19 positive. Vietnamese government for the win. https://t.co/EaNumnA733 https://t.co/Nn9Fo0scsq
RT @MRFIVEINC: One your calling Black People “INMATES” as a show you are spreading false biases stating that “these people” as if their not trapped human beings - the major problem with slavery is it gets validated by these bias shows . People incarcerated are their because inequality thrives https://t.co/cbfRMdb9FW
RT @jayrosen_nyu: This isn't spin, lying, or "dueling realities." It's the propagation of a parallel world, fictional and absurd. The questions come from one universe, the answers from another. Journalism is premised on a cosmic continuity that is missing here. It seems like a Q & A, but it's not. https://t.co/xfLHYDkYir
RT @GunnelsWarren: 118 billionaires in New York became over $77 billion richer during the pandemic and are now worth over $600 billion. The 5-year budget deficit in NY is just $63 billion. NY doesn't have to slash funding for the homeless or the disabled. It just has to tax the damn billionaires. https://t.co/AZhaj7RmtP
RT @dananessel: I’ve spent so long despising this man, it nvr occurred to me to feel sorry for him. One of the luckiest men the world has ever known. While so many are suffering, he has everything, and yet can’t think of a single thing to be thankful for today. Must be an agonizing existence. https://t.co/U0sGIkGJXq

RT @Ash_Kalra: With the passage of the California Racial Justice Act, juveniles will also have the opportunity to challenge disparate treatment based on race. Our entire system is rotten to the core with systemic racism and we must be proactive in rooting it out. #ConfrontRacism https://t.co/I4txlV0vpG
RT @EliNSavit: Trump's DOJ is rushing to execute as many as possible—knowing a 17-year moratorium on federal executions existed before it took office, & knowing @JoeBiden pledged to eliminate the federal death penalty. The cruelty of being killed because of manipulated timing is staggering. /1 https://t.co/zWYjWX1XWb
RT @MsLaToshaBrown: Today when @BlackVotersMtr bus arrived in Augusta, GA as soon as I got off the bus a lady walked up to me and handed me these flowers the community had bought for me. I though it was for my bday but she said “We didn’t know it was your birthday. These are because we love you.” ❤️ https://t.co/bmiU2Kjy3J

RT @JooHyun_Kang: This is a pic of #AntonioWilliams. Everyone in his family talks abt how he always tried to lighten any mood & make them laugh. He was killed by NYPD in a hail of 15 bullets. A cop was also killed. ZERO cops involved have been fired. His fam released new video footage today... https://t.co/fuFp82gkJR
RT @chesaboudin: "I hope the message people take is that no one is above the law, that we enforce the law equally in San Francisco without regard to the color of your skin, how much money you have in your bank account or to whether you wear a uniform to work," said Mr. Boudin." https://t.co/qbj5U3U4Y6
RT @KarineOmry: The execution of a man who didn't kill anyone -#BrandonBernard was not the shooter!- on International Human Rights Day sounds like a bad joke. Unfortunately it isn't!

RT @ScottHech: Before this year, no federal execution had taken place since 2003. In July 2020, Barr & Trump resumed federal executions. Since then, they've killed 8 people. Brandon Bernard has now received an execution date. He is currently scheduled to be killed on December 10, 2020. https://t.co/uNoWj3MOYd
RT @ScottHech: Brandon Bernard. Sentenced to death at 18 as an accomplice. Attorneys declined opening statements. Called no witnesses at penalty stage. 11 of 12 jurors were white. 5 of them now don't want death. His prosecutor has called for mercy. Bill Barr wants him executed on Dec. 10.

RT @RDunhamDPIC: The EU has issued a statement expressing concern over the latest federal execution—the first during a presidential transition period in modern American history. There have been 8 federal executions in 2020, with 5 more executions scheduled prior to the inauguration of Joe Biden. https://t.co/4mVKx4nBvY
RT @DrEricDing: 📍NEW—Texas Army National Guard has just arrived in El Paso—they have been assigned the grim work of dealing with the overflow of deceased bodies now piled up in 10 refrigerated mobile morgues. It is hard work—previously county jail inmates. #COVID19 https://t.co/I2gIBlNHEG https://t.co/zbNQfwu9Zv

RT @ScottHech: Cuomo has ignored the 40k plus people in his jail/prisons. Forced them to produce hand sanitizer for pennies & refused to let them use it. Turned his back on communities to repeal bail reform in the dead of night. Opened a nursing home in prison instead of releasing elderly. NO! https://t.co/MHIlpL9LDq
RT @daeshikjr: Help amplify these list of demands put out by Tacoma housing advocates and support the 10 unsheltered individuals who are CURRENTLY occupying Tacoma’s Gault Middle School. Tacoma Police are now threatening to arrest. Call the mayor ASAP. https://t.co/7GECKuYyRy https://t.co/8etRX1MN1S
RT @daeshikjr: This building has been abandoned for TEN YEARS but Tacoma Mayor and Police are still deciding to arrest the 10 unsheltered individuals who are currently using the space as refuge from the freezing temperatures outside. US unemployment just hit 742,000 during our pandemic. https://t.co/WjUDZ4RlBT

RT @k_trahan: The DC Circuit held that DOJ illegally obtained a drug that will cause Orlando Hall to be tortured to death through a drowning sensation. The district court stayed his execution. Without waiting for the circuit court & with no explanation, SCOTUS allowed the execution. Monstrous. https://t.co/T8LKbjlX5e
RT @GunnelsWarren: Fact check: Bernie's right. Amazon's dead wrong. Over the past 3 years, Amazon paid ZERO in federal income taxes after making $29.3 billion in profits, while Amazon workers continue to report they're not getting paid sick leave. The truth hurts, Amazon. 1/ https://t.co/hVsfE3Vyqh https://t.co/Ocy2E51wsX
RT @jayrosen_nyu: The @GOP's verified account sent this out. That he won in a landslide. Here, I think, the party made official its break with American democracy. Not saying it wasn't apparent before. It was. Just more official now. As ridiculous as Sydney Powell is, this is a sobering moment. https://t.co/b7mPpeEK3T
RT @AymanM: As Secretary of State of Mike Pompeo continues to promote his pro-Israel policies, I interviewed Palestinian poet and writer Mohammed el Kurd about his family’s experience being evicted from his home and whether Palestinian lives and the chances for peace will improve under Biden https://t.co/ZytbI8yikM

RT @GeorgeGascon: If law enforcement had all the answers victims would feel restored & we wouldn't have astronomic rates of recidivism. Our profession has largely missed the opportunity to learn from those that are justice-involved. We need to listen, grow, & take this opportunity to be better. https://t.co/1nqsgDJc0y
RT @shaunking: We need to reimagine a system of public safety that stops destroying communities & starts rebuilding them. With her diversion program, @TahanieNYC will stop prosecuting minor offenses, work w/ social workers to provide support, & focus her office's resources on keeping NYC safe. https://t.co/2H817fZMI9

RT @_waleedshahid: Rep. Spanberger says Republican attack ads about "socialism" and "Defund The Police" hurt her. But the most frequent GOP-attack ads against her in the last month of the election drum up Islamophobia more than anything else. Why didn't she mention these ads at all? https://t.co/6xDUmybtEU

RT @BrendanKeefe: President Trump's campaign accused four Georgia voters of fraud. Said they voted 'dead' in the presidential election. We tracked two of them down, alive & well.

RT @TheRealestSpoon: Kiss my ass. I am as hardline as they come with regards to Trump voters, I think they willingly supported a white supremacist and proto-fascist, but millions of people don't deserve to succumb to disease and death because of a choice at the ballot bxo. Fuck you. https://t.co/F0KCkwuYt5

RT @shaunking: As Hakeem Jeffries (@RepJeffries) dismisses The Squad as "internet celebrities" what he WILL NEVER DO is compare the fact that 97.31% of all of his fundraising comes from super-rich donors and PACs up against how regular everyday people fund the campaigns of The Squad. https://t.co/Gqlf8tJ8wS
RT @davidminpdx: I mean it might not work – because the election results are just a bit too clear – but the groundwork for a coup is being laid by all sorts of people. Not just Trump and his immediate orbit, but lots of people throughout the Republican party and conservative movement. https://t.co/BihwkB2jmq
If you are ever stumped as to why @RepJeffries refuses to support the most progressive policies in the country, out of step with what the voters in his district want, just follow the money. His donors don't want it. And without his rich donors, Hakeem would hardly raise a dime. https://t.co/9QA9edrH04

RT @shaunking: I can't imagine that the @JoeBiden transition team for the Department of Justice could be more disappointing. Most are corporate lawyers. No progressive prosecutors.
