This is a human rights violation. Multiple detainees described a disturbing incident where dozens of men were forced to eat food they had been denied all day while shackled. “We had to bend over and eat off the chairs with our mouths, like dogs,” — from a new Human Rights Watch report.

Criminalizing the unhoused is evil no matter what, but it’s especially evil to do so in a country where 40-60% of people experiencing homelessness have jobs. You can’t “outwork” a broken system. Tr*mp is just punishing people for being poor in a country that systemically keeps them poor.

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? So many bug fixes that *do* go out are just because some dev got annoyed and did it on the side when management said they should have been working on something else.

What you're looking at is a farmworker running in fear through a field before giving up, surrendering and being roughly swung to the ground by two masked unidentified men. This could be a scene from any movie about people being disappeared into camps. Except it actually happens today.

As a firefighter, please don't cause false fire alarms. If there is a real fire, innocent people may get hurt or killed. Good trouble doesn't involve risking innocents and first responders that have to run lights and sirens to get to that fire alarm. I support good trouble, but isn't the way.

DC recently granted noncitizens the right to vote in local elections. 210 Republicans (all present) and 56 Democrats (see below) voted to block DC's ability to administer its own local elections in that way. Republicans don't believe in self-rule for DC. Dems shouldn't join them.

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.
