Historic opioid settlements were supposed to be a lifeline for underserved communities. But much of that money is flowing to law enforcement.

Replying to @chadbourn.bsky.social
Gina Haspel served as the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency in 2020 when Cole made his initial discovery of Jared's iPhone hack. Why wasn't this investigated and prosecuted then instead of being held for a book deal to be released a week before the midterm elections?

I hope Michiganders elect Abdul El-Sayed to the Senate. He would be good for Michigan and good for the United States. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/senator-abdul-el-sayed

Would love to see @brahmresnik.bsky.social share this recording/video somewhere other than on X. (cc: @adrianfontes.bsky.social @mcaoaz.bsky.social @recorder.maricopa.gov @kjzz.org @azcentral.com PSA: Maricopa County Recorder phone line provides incorrect election date. Correct date is Nov. 3.
β Past=Prologue, means prepping for up to 3 months of crisis mode post-election. Work stoppages, general strike, massive marches, peaceful resistance and more could easily span several weeks if mid-term results are overturned. Hoping for the best but preparing for the worst is usually good advice.π₯
+7000 "followers" = a single like. Why bother?
How responsive to election related posts are the Bsky feed algorithms? I'll try tagging a few posts to see what happens. It's hard to tell whether my updates get any visibility. Assumption 1: #Kittens of BlueSky (GOTV cats) get more views than less cute topics. Like/share if you agree :-)
Would love to see more town halls like this one. #Talarico is a formidable talent, and appears to be a very capable leader. I hope he does well in #Texas on election day. The one-on-one format is vastly better than debates in my opinion. youtu.be/tweubjhuaPo

Since assuming office in 2015, Ken Paxton has taken nearly 1,000 trips with a state-funded security detail, costing $3.3 million and a review of travel records could only connect 138 of those trips and $553,000 in security costs to state business. www.propublica.org/article/ken-...

Having lived through 2007-2008, I'm wondering who is holding the bag on the credit default swaps of hyperscalers, and whether the insurer of last resort β Uncle Sam β will again be called upon to bail out the financial system.
βThe stock market tends to ignore off-balance sheet obligations until an inflection point. By the time equity analysts start inviting their bond counterparts to βgrab a beer to pick your brain about leasesβ, hyperscaler bond prices β and PE ratios β may be a lot lower.β www.ft.com/content/17a2...

I love that this might be the thing that tanks Paxton, and not the biblical divorce or letting a child rapist out early.
π¨ WOW: WSJ reports Ken Paxton partied in a luxury Dubai high-rise with 2 FUGITIVES, Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail, facing fed charges over an alleged $15 MILLION hospital embezzlement scheme β alongside his gf (not his wife). Ahmed donated $190K to Paxton, including $25K AFTER his indictment.

"Barely scraping by": Engineers give AZ's roads a D+, thanks in large part to our lack of funding for upkeep. By banning future funding sources, #Prop141 would keep AZ stagnant, turning us into a run-down disaster. Vote NO! #NoProp141
