Trump once again takes advantage of D.C.’s unique vulnerability to federal interference and reinstated the death penalty last week. It hasn't been used here in 68 years.

Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true. Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that. It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.

The masks ICE agents wear aren’t masks. They’re face coverings designed to hide their identity. The masks disabled people have been pleading to normalize are KN95s, N95s and other respirators. Which will help protect you from COVID & other airborne threats! Normalize masking for public health.

Well, the government killed a lot of the people in those orgs. Red baited others into social death. There was that whole neoliberal turn where we said non-profits were more civilized than activists. Even with all of that, those orgs (even some of their people!) are still very much around.
