    Hell yeah. The Casa Maria Soup Kitchen is one of the raddest charities out there, and Brian Flagg is one of the realest ones out there, he makes you people look like Ronald Reagan

    NEW: Leaders of a small Arizona city ramped up affordable housing & services like soup kitchens for homeless people. In response, a former mayor got angry & tried to recall them. But they survived the recalls this month.

    Bolts reports on what's happening—& the warring responses to homelessness:

    Fewer than 250 voters cast a ballot in a South Tucson recall election this month targeting the mayor and two allies in city council. The three officials, Mayor Roxy Valenzuela... Read More

    The prosecutor of Newport News, VA, served 35 yrs without ever facing a reelection challenger!

    In June, he faced his 1st challenger in 9 bids, Shannon Jones, a Black woman who won by 15%.

    “We’re just prosecuting cases arbitrarily without understanding the implications of addiction,” she told me:

    Most of November's prosecutor races feature just one candidate, as usual. But key races will shape the politics of criminal justice, from Philly to Seattle — plus a wild card in New Jersey.

    Remember Springfield, Ohio and Donald Trump's racist lies that Haitian immigrants had begun eating their neighbors’ pets?

    Now, those immigrants (an estimated 10,000-15,000) who helped revive Springfield’s struggling economy are being chased out by Trump’s anti-immigrant policies. trib.al/sxM4xze

    This flew by my radar this week, but massively important: the 5th circuit court of appeals ruled that the NLRB’s structure unconstitutional.

    It is a huge blow to “American workers who hope to organize their workplaces without fear of retaliation. It represents a partial negation of the New Deal…”

    The Fifth Circuit has done the mogul’s bidding and neutered the National Labor Relations Board, in a move that will likely substantially damage workers’ rights.

    More false advertising from Tesla. This article says you are 17x more likely to be burned alive in a Cybertruck than you were to be killed by the Ford Pinto's exploding gas tank!

    FSD doesn't prevent accidents, it causes them, and FSD on the Cybertruck is even more defective than on other Teslas.
