There was never any lockdown. There was just middle-class people hiding while working-class people brought them things.

Sigh. Still waiting to recover from 2017, 2018’s Cherokee and Camp Fires. Climate change has hit our county hard. @J_GallagherAD3 gentle reminder but the Miocene is still dry. We desperately need water.

Y’all I want you to start noticing something. Look for agricultural industry groups who acknowledge climate change. Look for ag publications who acknowledge about it. I’ve noticed not many will. And for people who claim to love the environment that horrifies me.

We're under a severe thunderstorm watch until 7:00 PM. Our radar is down, so Intern Roy's gonna holler from his treehouse if he spots anything.

I will not participate in erasing GW Bush's murderous legacy just because the hundreds of thousands of people he killed weren't American or because he isn't "as bad" as Trump. He is a war criminal who helped get us to this awful place.

Richmond: Are you enraged that Richmond cops keeping using cars to run us over? Want to march to their headquarters and let them know what you want? Meet at Monroe Park at 8pm tonight. Come prepared and wear your mask.

Mutual aid networks cropped up all over the United States at the start of the lockdown, helping communities organize themselves in the absence of adequate state support. Those projects have a deep history in the US, especially within early organized labor. jacobinmag.com/2020/6/mutual…

The recent nationwide protests aren’t only memorializing George Floyd. Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old black woman, was fatally shot by police who mistakenly entered her home investigating people suspected of selling drugs. No officers have been charged. bit.ly/2UcrbKR

Obama speaking tonight is designed to do 3 things 1. Get black people to calm down in a time where we should be outraged 2. Convince people voting for Biden will solve all our problems 3. Whitewash his record brutalizing protestors at Standing Rock and Occupy #takeobamalive
NEW: Obama to speak about George Floyd in virtual town hall hill.cm/kwZn2eN
