Brilliant podcast from @mongabay with @jcatanoso - the clearest overview I've heard on the shocking amount of world #forests being burned for energy & how policies like the EU's Renewable Energy Directive (being revised this year) are culpable and have to change

I love trees and forests, but also love other aspects of nature. This podcast episode from @mongabay about the wild and flowing rivers of southeastern #Europe is gorgeous. Inspiring, heartening, amazing. news.mongabay.com/2022/10/po… #conservation #rivers #nature @EuropaBon_H2020

Oklahoma's homicide rate is 2x the homicide rates in NY or CT or NJ. It's 50% higher than the homicide rate in NYC!
OK's violent-crime rate is 25% higher than NYS, 5% higher than CA's. Yet people at the debate laughed as if Hofmeister's unquestionably true statement were absurd.

If more cops, prosecutors, and prisons made us safer, the U.S. would have the safest society in the world. But that simple truth is obscured by the way in which the news covers public safety. equalityalec.substack.com/p/…

Please take a moment this weekend to think about how the U.S. puts Black people in cages 6 times the rate of South Africa at height of Apartheid. Almost all people caged in the U.S. are poor. Think about how these horrors have been normalized and justified by the news you hear.

In 2021, Merrick Garland vowed to protect election workers from harm in order to ensure free and fair elections.
Merrick Garland was, as usual, lying.

This video depicts federal and state felony crimes committed, on video, by Los Angeles sheriff deputies. The fact that federal, state, and local "law enforcement" have so far chosen not to arrest and charge them is an example of how the "rule of law" functions in our society.
This is Blake Anderson. He’s a security guard at the Good Batch Lounge. Early Sunday morning, deputy Rodriguez and his partner pulled up and began beating Blake. He’s since lost vision in his eye. He’s current being charged with assault on a police office for this. @lasdgangs

Reminder:
Florida did a voter reg drive in jail. Then Florida charged the inmates...for illegally registering
8 of 10 are Black
They've been sentenced to years in prison
Also in FL: 2 white guys in The Villages voted 2x
They got community service
