Senate candidates in Alaska say the oil industry is good for locals. But the state's own data shows a growing number of nonresidents are the ones getting the jobs. I wrote about it in @prospect.org today.

Shitler always spills the tea beforehand and I have no doubt it’s EXACTLY what he wants. 1)Boost poll #’s with an attack. 2)Rally voters behind a war they ALL hate. 3)Call a national emergency to cancel the mid-terms. 4)Kill a massive amount of voters in a state he hates is just a bonus 4 him!

The reality is harrowing. Shifting the blame to clothing or timing is a cheap defense mechanism to avoid confronting why this violence happens. We shouldn't have to fear the dark. It is time to stop demanding women prevent assault and start demanding that perpetrators stop committing it. ✊

Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor. Donors make huge profits while workers get shafted. Repeat. This is not a coincidence. It's a political-economic system that's been corrupted by design.

Today, I attended a memorial mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, led by Archbishop Ronald A. Hicks, in honor of those who died on 9/11.

25 years ago, we bore witness to unimaginable suffering. But New Yorkers met that moment with a spirit of love, sacrifice, and solidarity that guided us forward.

As we remember those we lost, let us continue to take refuge in one another. Let us recommit to the work of building a better city — one that is worthy of the legacy they left.
