The US has a well-documented history of lynching Black people that's never truly ended. In recent months, Black families across America have been finding their children dead yet police and sheriffs' departments across the country refuse transparency when discussing what's happened to our people.

They are the exact locations where human beings missing from official ICE databases are hidden, shuffled covertly between ICE flights, transit buses, and known detention camps to keep them off the public radar and out of judicial reach. This cannot be allowed to stand. Shut them all down now.

The high-speed rail authority can't force PG&E to move it's stuff out of the way of the people's rail project.... But the governor and state lawmakers do have that power. They can pass laws and regulations that make PG&E play nice. The lack of movement is on the politicians, not the engineers

One way tech oligarchs retain power is through dual-class shares, allowing them to cash in on public stock markets without giving up power over their companies. @ryanlcooper.com thinks this needs to end: Dual-class shares should be banned, or taxed in proportion to founder control over the company.
