@americanair.bsky.social you cancelled my flight 20 minutes before boarding. You are unable to rebook me. And now, after I've waited over an hour for my luggage, I'm told you can't find it. I have to drive to Jacksonville tonight because of you. The least you can do is fin my bags!

If you think criminalizing mere possession of disfavored information will stop with so-called Antifa, ask yourself why the admin sought warrants to learn who subscribed to Don Lemon on YouTube. Read more from FPF’s @seth-stern.bsky.social and @joinjeremy.org in @theintercept.com.

Thank you to the families for standing with us through all of this. The court has to end this useless delay so we can pay them. “It just seems like the courts are enabling an abuser to continue to abuse,” said Robbie Parker, who lost his 6-year old daughter Emilie Parker in the Sandy Hook shooting.
