the only thing i’m going to promote in this thread is that ppl should get involved in an explicitly anti-zionist anti colonial org that stands in solidarity with the Palestinian resistance by any means necessary in @JAWS_2023 a fight against kissinger’s colonial genocidal legacy

it is very possible that henry kissinger has played a role in the mass murder of more people than anyone else in human history

they are more than just a number, they were people who had parents, children, families, hopes, dreams, pets, jobs who because of henry kissinger and the western foreign policy apparatus were murdered in the name of imperialism and white supremacy

10,000+ zimbabweans 60,000+ mozambiqueans 900,000+ angolans 11,000+ guinea bisseauans 300,000+ east timorians 1,000,000+ indonesians 20,000+ western saharans 1,100,000+ iraqis and so so many more

thinking today of henry kissinger’s victims 3 million + vietnamese 2.5 million + cambodians 200,000+ laotians 3 million + bangladeshis 10,000+ indians 10,000+ pakistanis 15,000+ egyptians 3500+ syrians 6500+ cypriots 40,000+ chileans 30,000+ argentinians

YES

I have several invite codes for the 🟦 clone app. Any mutuals want one?

if they wrote it "Putin" it would sound like "Putain" which is a derogatory term for a sex worker so they opted for fries covered in cheese curds and gravy.

when you see Poutine is trending but then you remember you live in France and this is how they spell Putin's name here and now I want poutine

just to be clear: if you want one, reply or message me.

I have a lot of thoughts about leadership failures that led us here. But I’ll just say I feel for my colleagues who were also laid off, and for the ones left to pick up the pieces. And if you’re looking for this kind of work, please reach out. I suddenly have a lot of free time.

This is just some of the stuff I’ve done recently. It’s terrible to know the Tribune won’t do work like it anymore. I am so sorry to the hundreds of thousands in prison, jail or elsewhere in the system. And for the countless more who love them. Mostly, I’m sorry for all Texans.

5) And for years, I’ve been religiously reporting on the dangerous heat in prisons during Texas’ increasingly hot summers. In a historic move this year, the House pushed to spend $545M to cool the prisons. The Senate cut it.

@TexasTribune 4) I’ve also repeatedly explained the chaos of prosecuting marijuana in a hemp world — most recently by showing how high school kids with vape pens are getting jailed on felony charges, even though police can’t tell if the pen has an illegal substance.

@TexasTribune Last year, I exposed how a staffing crisis in youth prisons trapped kids in cells up to 23 hours a day — without toilets. Nearly half of Texas’ imprisoned children had been on suicide watch. This led to a state hearing and House priority legislation.

@TexasTribune 1) When Texas created a new criminal system for migrants on the fly, I tracked it at every step, reporting on the endless stream of law enforcement errors and illegal detentions. This work led to a DOJ investigation (and several awards for the Tribune)
