The things that police officers and firefighters see at accidents and crime scenes can be horrifying, and they often face terrible danger.

That's why I'm proud to join Senator @HawleyMO in introducing the Supporting and Treating Officers In Crisis Act of 2019.
The Supporting and Treating Officers In Crisis Act will:

1⃣ Restore grant funding for family-support services for police officers and
2⃣ Allow grant recipients to use funds to create suicide-prevention programs and mental health services for law enforcement officers.
These services will help them process and deal with the things they must bear to keep us safe.

When I interrogated #Kavanaugh, I pointed out Roberts’ record of 73 partisan 5-4 decisions helping big Republican donor interests. It’s a disturbing pattern, and a serious charge, so I wrote this lengthy piece to document my analysis. acslaw.org/issue_brief/br…
Dammit, here we go again. This is why big Republican donors fight so hard to capture the Court: yet another 5-4 partisan victory for big business over workers. nytimes.com/2019/04/24/us/…
This time, the Court’s so-called "conservatives" trampled over conservative principles of judicial restraint & respect for states to further stack the deck against working Americans.

My initial reactions to the #MuellerReport ⬇️
The redacted report details an alarming account of #RussianInterference in our elections — one of sufficient magnitude, touching 120 million Americans & involving massive thefts of campaign information, to have tipped the close election in Trump’s favor.
Russia may have chosen our President. The Russian/Wikileaks influence campaign engaged with multiple Trump campaign personnel, including direct communication with Trump family; & Trump’s circle repeatedly engaged with Russia interests seeking political advantage in the race.

Plummeting #EV prices to render gas vehicles as “obsolete as flip phones.” (PS please don’t tell @SenSchumer flip phones are obsolete. He still thinks his is cool.)

If you want the long form, here’s an interesting talk on how transitions in electric vehicles, automated driving, and renewable power could combine to reshape transportation sector.
Notable prediction: your gas-powered vehicle may become worth less than zero — you’ll have to pay someone to take it away and dispose of it.

San Diego's Mayor
@SDMayorsOffice
2019 is an important year for San Diego as we commemorate our 250th anniversary. We became the city we are today with ideas that were big, bold and groundbreaking. In 2019, we must tap into that same spirit to address the challenges that define our time. #SOTCSD
A housing crisis we must tackle. Communities we must lift up. An environment we must protect. These are the issues that will define this year, and help shape our next 250.
Now more than ever it’s important that San Diego works together as one city. Just look at Washington, D.C., to see the alternative.

The government and police were entirely aware that the protests last Saturday would be violent. Violent protests had taken place on the past two Saturdays. So as I wrote here, they prepared for it. city-journal.org/police-handlin…
But they prepared for the wrong kind of violence, in the wrong places. On Friday, the Interior Minister predicted that 200 black-block protesters and 100 members of the far-right would join the protests.
“Vandalism and violence are unfortunately predictable,” said Denis Jacob, the secretary-general of one of France’s police unions, observing that this kind of violence usually occurs at the tail end of the rally. So what's their main concern? 1) Making sure that the large number

Following an order from President Trump, Attorney General Jeff Sessions today announced that he is providing more resources for law enforcement in Chicago and filing a brief opposing a proposed consent decree on Chicago police.
“Public safety, security and order are the fundamental responsibility of the executive branches of our state, local and federal governments,” Attorney General Sessions said. “This constitutional duty rests primarily, for large cities, on their police departments.

Speaker is currently going over how police trainer Jim Grossman has misled the public, including lying about winning a Pulitzer. Grossman, who encourages officers to "increase killing", presents himself as a psychologist despite not being licensed as one unicornriot.ninja/2018/public-fo…
Grossman has told officers to turn "killing" "on and off like a faucet" but according to speakers at tonight's panel, he lacks the psychological training and knowledge to support his extreme claims about how officers' mentalities relate to police shootings unicornriot.ninja/2018/public-fo…
Quotes from fear-based #police trainers Dave Grossman (Killology Research), Jim Glennon (Calibre Press), & Bill Lewinski (Force Science) adorned the walls of the public forum on police education in #Minneapolis.
