Huh. Apparently Katie Miller deleted this tweet that I had the foresight to screencap. Turns out I can TOO make things go viral on Xitter, even.
My RT of a Katie Miller tweet which RTed the NYPost coverage of the Ilhan Omar raid. 

She said: Promise made, promise kept.
I said: Katie Miller is not going to do very well in a deposition.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

Another fight over who controls the nation’s purse strings. The White House announced that it plans to cancel $810 million in spending already approved by Congress, using a rarely used maneuver known as a “pocket rescission.”

Please do a BREAKING post about the Mayor of Los Angeles, and how much crime has decreased since she took office. LA recently reported historic drops in violent crime, including decreases tied to community safety initiatives like the Office of the @mayor.lacity.gov Summer Night Lights program
Mayor Karen Bass • Jul 3 •
•••
Those long, summer nights can be times of trouble, but by providing positive activities for families and young people and activating our parks at night, Summer Night Lights is proven to increase public safety - and it's a way for people to have a lot of fun, too.

A 27% DROP
in homicides in neighborhoods most impacted by violence, referred to as Gang Reduction and Youth Development (GRYD) zones across the city. This coincided with a 19% citywide drop in homicides, the lowest on record in 60 years for the City of Los Angeles.
