We did “best” at Arrakis. Company holiday to honor and execute democracy. It’s not hard to do tbh.

Please retweet this is you know of one H-1B recipient who has made this country better. @realDonaldTrump please do not sign this order. You would be taking out a piston from your innovation engine.
President Trump is expected to sign an order to suspend H-1B, L-1 and other temporary work visas through the end of the year. The new order is expected to come with broad exceptions: trib.al/LJs8eeR

Retweet if you agree the officer who slammed the 75-yr-old man to the pavement and watched his head bleed shouldn’t be a policeman
Did this elderly man, who is bleeding out, while police walk by, survive?

There has been a lot of discussion of the Swedish approach to coping with the #COVID19 pandemic, and of whether their strategy of more voluntary restrictions and a more rapid approach to reaching ‘herd immunity’ would work. Let’s talk about the results so far. 1/

Trump believes he has now politically washed its hands of the CV crisis. He believes every closure will now be on the governors & a populist wave will support him. I can’t say whether it will work politically, but it will cause us to continue to suffer the worst global CV toll.

These are the steps along the path to tyranny. I don’t say so melodramatically. Just with a regard for history. Immunity to tyranny requires standing up, even if just with a tweet, though there’s so much more each us can do. For example... nytimes.com/2020/04/09/opini…
