Shooting at a car to stop a shoplifter is not justified. Even if no one was harmed, let alone shooting to death a 1 year-old baby.
JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

I don't think we'll ever be done with the "I fucking told you so's." The Food Research & Action Center reported that these changes would weaken safety nets and worsen food insecurity for low-income families: frac.org/blog/project...

I LOVE how @propublica.org dealt with official comment here, editorially and stylistically.
A year ago, @propublica.org told you immigration agents had detained more than 170 U.S. citizens. We’ve updated our count, and we’ve got all the receipts. The tally: At least 506 citizens detained. Sometimes held at gunpoint, handcuffed, or even deported. projects.propublica.org/american-cit...
Tell Congress: Stop Trump from destroying 45 million acres of our National forests 👇 Write a letter here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
It’s been way beyond “He’s just kidding” far too long. Let’s see how #MSM reports this & if there’s pushback when this is the response again. (Not holding my breath.) #fightfascism
Not my president. Clearly, not a president for all Americans. “Let them (Iran) take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego.” Then Trump called it a “small price to pay.” Millions of us dead. And his audience laughed. Reporting from my local news…

calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu... AB's plan is also a blatant violation of the Canada Health Act. Legal opinions publicly released over the summer have reinforced this ... There is no ambiguity here: what Alberta is doing goes against the very idea of universal public healthcare. #abhealth #ableg

Recommended reading! "...85 % of Canadians agree that universal health care based on a person’s need, not how much money they have, is a core Canadian value. And 91 per cent say they’re feeling concerned about the future of public health care." Chris Galloway, ED @friendsofmedicare.bsky.social
We deserve action to protect our sovereignty, our public health care systems, and patient care from the impacts of Bill 11 and the imposition of two-tier health care — before it's too late! 📢Tell the Feds to enforce the Canada Health Act: friendsofmedicare.org/EnforceTheCHA

Such an important piece: thewalrus.ca/alberta-sepa... "The alternative is division. It is annexation. It is populist authoritarianism. It is the end of Canada as we know and understand it. If we fail now to defend our country, we may be pulled into the far-right vortex engulfing the United States."

Never ceases to amaze me how skillfully Smith gaslights Albertans. This is a great clip:
Smith is a con artist that's ALWAYS been a separatist. Great video by Claus Kellerman with old clips of who she's always been. Thanks for talking action to support Alberta and plans to help get her out of office next year! #CanadaStrong 💪♥️🇨🇦 youtu.be/YzlZXOiSaZc?...

fightbacknow.civicdeeds.com/actions/calg... Let's raise our voices & make some noise for a brighter and more hopeful Alberta for everyone! Meet at Calgary City Hall. We’ll march to the rally site at McDougall Centre (455 6 St. SW). Bring a friend, signs, water, snacks, and a noisemaker!
Please spread the word ... Albertans need to speak out loudly about this injustice & cruelty. @migrantsrights.bsky.social #Elducation4Al #abed #abpoli #ableg
albertaworkers.org/ed4all Some children in Alberta are being denied access to education. They are blocked from registering in school because of their parents’ precarious immigration status. This is a grassroots campaign led by International Migrants Alliance - Alberta & supported by AWARE.

09/29 heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/september-... So Schmitt got his right-wing media hit from a completely fabricated storyline. One newscaster noted: “When a witness lies under oath before Congress, he can face prison. When a senator gets it wrong, he says he was just ‘asking questions’.”
@stephruhle.bsky.social great panel - please stop interrupting them so much

Of course Trump’s promise to pay American adults $5,000-but only if Republicans win-will never happen. Has anyone gotten a DOGE check? Or the tariff money? Even if he weren’t lying (I know, but hear me out), it would cost about $1.375 TRILLION-on top of the current $40 trillion debt Ludicrous
Deliberately crashing the American economy—costing American families well over $5,000 each—and then promising to pay those families back $5,000 but *only if* they keep letting him abuse them and the country for two more years... ...is some *seriously* dark, domestic-abuser shit.
