The Academy nominated American Sniper 6 times. The Bradley Cooper film celebrating a real life war criminal who said he killed "damn savages" for "fun" and bragged about looting homes of innocent Iraqi families at the site of Fallujah massacre of civilians with chemical weapons.
The Academy does not condone violence of any form. Tonight we are delighted to celebrate our 94th Academy Awards winners, who deserve this moment of recognition from their peers and movie lovers around the world.

In addition to the $billions of aid already flowing into Ukraine,the Congress is about to approve another $10 billion for the humanitarian effort. Remember this is the Senate that would not approve the humanitarian funding for senior, child care, & family medical leave. Shameful

THREAD. I noticed something fascinating: around the same time in recent days, each major corporate news source began talking about a new crime hysteria: a supposed crisis of theft from the railroad industry. But if you look deeper, something very scary is happening.

THREAD. A new scandal is brewing at the New York Times. I try my best below to document the paper's corporate and police union copaganda, and to share actual evidence and research that the NYT ignores. The stakes are huge.

The capacity to hurt those you love when you're hurting too is high. It's hard to heal and help at the same time. That's why you have to be patient with those you love. #InsecureHBO
