What is the comparable resolution or organizational decision that the Levy endorsement is against? I agree it's a bad endorsement.

It’s always shocking to me when RCV supporters back top two because it fixes nothing that RCV fixes and creates new problems. No on 3

It's true that Mass Ballot Q-3 to establish "Jungle Primaries" is funded almost entirely by Private Equity Vultures, all of whom will not defend their investment to the press. Their silence, and fact that Q3 contributors have spent the most behind any of all 9 Questions, screams "No on 3" to me.

Why is the investment world financing a Mass. ballot question to eliminate partisan primaries? - The Boston Globe
A wave of wealthy individuals with ties to various investment, private equity, and venture capital firms has put millions of dollars behind a ballot question to scrap the state's party primaries.

I don't have time to write more, but ICE is working to remove people to third countries in violation of D.V.D. v. DHS. I've been up since 5:20 A.M. working with two other attorneys to prevent our client from being shipped out. If you rep someone at risk of third country removal, check on them NOW

I feel the rest of the world (Americans included) have no idea of how aggressively the US is pushing to make Latin America into a giant colony. Every day we get news about political interference, increase in military presence, absurd trade demands, online propaganda, Venezuela being pillaged, etc
Headline from one of Brazil's biggest newspapers that reads: 
Brazilian Intelligence Agency (Abin) warns the government and the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) about the 'critical' level of escalating US pressure against Brazil in the elections.

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot by ICE while working as a food delivery driver. They handcuffed him as he was bleeding and didn’t even allow his wife to see him in the hospital. There needs to be an independent investigation of this cruelty. ICE must be abolished.

The man ICE shot in Austin today is named Wilber Rafael Garces Perez. Per his lawyer, she and Perez’s family were run off of hospital property where he’s being treated and won’t even confirm he’s there because he’s “in ICE custody.” Actual criminals.

lmao what a damning quote
People familiar with Flock’s severance plan tell WIRED that some employees may take the offer amid speculation that the company, which has raised about $1.2 billion in venture capital, might resort to selling off parts or all of its business to stay afloat. “When you see enough of the vandalism” targeting Flock cameras this year, one of the people says, “you know the writing is the wall” that something has to change.

Flock CEO Garrett Langley said on the All-In podcast last month that “the biggest damage” caused by the backlash against the company had been “internal morale.”

“Because you go on to X or you go on to Reddit and you go, why are people so mad at us when we've been doing the same thing for nine years?” Langley said. “And why are they so mad at us for things we don't do? And we just want people to be safe.”

I have tried to dispel the misunderstanding arising out of the impression that by ‘party’ I meant a ‘League’ that expired eight years ago, or an editorial board that was disbanded twelve years ago. By party, I meant the party in the broad historical sense.

we've reached a new milestone- the U.S. average diesel price has hit $6.301/gal while gasoline is up to $4.355/gal. I expect both of these to jump noticably over the next 48 hours. diesel could hit $6.60/gal in a few days, surpassing the inflation-adjusted peak seen in 2022.

The “official” numbers in the tables reflect Saudi “supply to market”, but Riyadh also noted (see highlight below) that actual production crashed 1,897 kbpd from July to 6,238 kbpd in August as the Houthi maritime ban mucked up reroute Saudi logistics and attacks hit infrastructure.

Asked why the WNBA continues to experience these heightened distractions, Cloud said, "Men."
"The men now that are like 'Oh, we need to protect the WNBA,’ y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't be paid," Cloud continued. "Y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't have been invested in, saying we're a joke, the same ones that don't respect Black women. So, if you're going to protect women, that means all women. That includes Black women, trans women and the list goes on."
