Two pilots dead at LaGuardia. A lone controller managing two simultaneous emergencies. The FAA is 3,000 controllers short. We will blame the human. We should fix the system.

The LaGuardia Crash Will Be Blamed on One Controller. That's Not the Whole Story.
3,000 controllers short. WWII-era radar still in use. And a lone controller managing two emergencies at midnight. This was preventable.

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location.

ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her.

This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

Protests have sprung up in response to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's Venice wedding, including a variety of life-size mannequins placed throughout the city.

Update —

The Senate parliamentarian has BLOCKED the public lands sell-off as outside the scope of reconciliation.

While the fight isn’t over, we’ll keep using every tool to protect our public lands!
Colorado's public lands are NOT for sale.

We must defeat this reckless proposal.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.

She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.

But the FDA recently denied its approval.

Now, her health hangs in the balance.

Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

NEW: Pope Leo’s newly appointed Bishop, Michael Pham, outside the court in San Diego:

“We need to speak up for the voiceless in our society - and we will.”

The video then shows masked ICE agents leaving without snatching anyone today.

More of this resistance nationwide! 👏

The Senate GOP budget bill would impose a sweeping nationwide abortion ban by blocking Affordable Care Act insurers from covering abortion care in all 50 states. This extreme measure would override state protections & strip millions of women of their right to comprehensive reproductive health care.

Oof I didn’t even think of this.
Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

Thou shalt remember that President Trump hired a “big time drug addict” to destroy the government and was fine with that.

Thou shalt also remember that Elon Musk funded and worked for a man he knew to be a pedophile and was fine with that.

Today in history, 1975: California Governor Jerry Brown signs the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act, the first law in the U.S. giving farmworkers collective bargaining rights. The landmark legislation came after a series of strikes starting in the mid 1960s. /1

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

Really feel like I’m losing my mind: government OBVIOUSLY cannot punish an individual law firm for hiring someone it disfavors! It’s ludicrously unconstitutional and I feel like without a day of law school I could argue the case. And yet the best paid lawyers in the country are folding?

This is who we sent. Never committed a crime. A soccer team logo and a single picture of the rock and roll horns sent him to be tortured in El Salvador.
NEW! Sworn declarations filed last night confirm the Trump admin sent INNOCENT people to rot in prison El Salvador, including a professional soccer player jailed and tortured by the Maduro regime, who entered this country LEGALLY to seek asylum, and who has NO CRIMINAL RECORD in either country.
