Just a reminder that calling for more body cameras = demanding more money for the manufacturer, AXON—one of the funders of Cop City.
Additionally, AXON has stated numerous times that the body cams are designed to be more useful in acquitting cops than holding them accountable.

Princeton sociologist Matthew Desmond says if the top 1% of Americans paid the taxes they owed, it would raise $175 billion each year.

BREAKING: The Biden admin will now reject all Haitian, Cuban and Nicaraguan asylum seekers who cross illegally, and cap entry from those places and Venezuela at a total 30,000/month.

BREAKING: @JackBox workers in Sacramento have walked off the job on strike
After a pregnant co-worker was threatened at gunpoint, she was told to finish her shift & her hours were cut when she refused. This is obscene.
We've filed a complaint with CalOSHA.

My name is Stacey Abrams. I’m a daughter, sister, aunt, author, small business owner, tax attorney and public servant.
Georgia deserves real leadership that will expand opportunity, not limit it.
I’m running for governor to help every Georgian thrive.

Washington, DC already has more police per capita than any US jurisdiction.
But it’s still the only capital in the democratic world whose citizens don't have full voting and representation rights.
DC doesn't need more police. DC needs statehood.
DC.. Mayor Bowser continues to push her budget proposal for more police. nbc4dc.com/wrAGXCF

My job is literally in the constitution, I defend my clients’ rights every day in a system that is rigged against them. I do something meaningful with my law degree. Maybe you should try it?
