😱 #Ohio is set to purge 235,000 voters from the rolls TODAY!!! The state ALREADY removed 265,000 voters from the rolls in January, so with this latest purge, half a million voters will have been removed so far this year. huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/ohio-vot…
Ohio is using the same discredited, biased #PurgeByPostcard game our team is fighting in #Georgia. Our experts say the method is over 70% wrong. That’s 200,000 voters in Ohio set to be wrongly purged TODAY!!! gregpalast.com/georgias-brian…
Bob Fitrakis, a top #VotingRights attorney, has already notified #Ohio's GOP Secretary of State, Frank LaRose, that he plans to sue in federal court under the National Voter Registration Act. This purge is a CRIME, and when they steal Ohio they steal the nation. #NVRA

Palast gives feminist trailblazer @LilaGarrett her award from @KPFK. Lila was the first American woman to write, direct and produce a TV series, and wrote your favorite episodes of #AllInTheFamily and #Bewitched.
@LilaGarrett @KPFK At 93, @LilaGarrett's still the passionate radical "Katie Morosky" that @BarbraStreisand portrayed in The Way We Were — the true story of Lila's college years, and is still fighting the "a**hole fascists" via her @KPFK Radio broadcast #ConnectTheDots.
@LilaGarrett @KPFK @BarbraStreisand Lila also stood with my uncle Oliver Crawford (#StarTrek) on the Screen Writers' Guild board fighting the Hollywood Black List. vimeo.com/81655231

I don't trust polls, they're not that accurate if they are before an election because the pollsters have to figure out if you're going to vote or not. The polls that really count are the #ExitPolls—and in #Wisconsin, #Pennsylvania & #Michigan, #HillaryClinton won the exit polls.
So what happened in #Wisconsin if you had a 4% victory in the #ExitPolls? How did Trump win? The answer is, you tell an exit pollster how you voted, but you don't know if your vote was counted. gregpalast.com/election-stole…
You don't know if the machine kicked out your vote. You don't know that if you filled out a #ProvisionalBallot and it was disqualified.

State Government Debt Risk - a history that repeats too often!

As the work on building Amravati, the new capital city AP, comes to a grinding halt, concerns emerge about Amravati (APCRDA) bonds held by Franklin MF (~Rs. 1000 Cr) and Birla MF (Rs. ~300 Cr). Thread 1/11
During the Chandrababu Govt, Amravati received political as well as financial patronage. Now, with Jagan Reddy being incharge of the state, the project is in shambles. World Bank & ADB pulled out of the project and the Government is looking for reasons to scrap it. 2/n
The bonds issued to support the financing needs of the project were subscribed by Franklin MF and Birla MF. The bonds are guaranteed by the AP Govt but it's not sure if the Govt would keep servicing the bonds. The risk of lending to a state govt has again come to the fore. 3/11

#Ohio hospitals charge about 241% of Medicare rates to private insurers.

Let's look into this a bit...
Some argue transparency will help. If consumers are informed, they can shop.

Research has documented how this does not work: 1) khn.org/news/as-hospit…

2) jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
Providers often argue they HAVE to increase prices because Medicare doesn't pay enough to cover their costs.

But high spending is an outgrowth of a few factors, including prices for labor and goods, Rx and DME, and admin:

How many more states will make #abortion illegal?

Some abortions are already illegal in a majority of states and you may not even know yours is one of them.

Please read and RT.
1/
Prior to #Roe in 1973, only three states, NY, WA and HI had legal abortion.
In 12 other states abortion was legal to save the life of the mother. In every other state abortion was illegal under all circumstances including rape, incest, fetal abnormality and life of the mother.
2/
Currently, all but six states--44 plus DC-- require parental notification for a minor to obtain an #abortion, even though significant numbers of minor pregnancies are caused by incest.

How informed are you?

Read entire thread and help wage war on these morally reprehensible acts ...

Human trafficking is the trade of humans for the purpose of forced labor, sexual slavery or commercial sexual exploitation for the trafficker or others. This may encompass providing a spouse in the context of forced marriage or the extraction of organs or tissues - #HarvestOrgans
Sex trafficking is human trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation, including sexual slavery. The sex exploitation is based on the interaction between the trafficker selling a victim to customers to perform sexual services.

0/ Been away from the #crypto and #blockchain space for a while and now find yourself out-of-the-loop?

Fear not! I've pieced together a thread dedicated to ecosystem events that occurred over the past day or two. Read on to get back up to speed.
1/ 🥼 Over on #EthResearch, @JieyiLong proposed a SNARK-based sidechain for #ERC20 tokens.

Can reduce processing time per transaction significantly on the #Ethereum network, relative to a fully on-chain ERC20 smart contract. Click below for more! ethresear.ch/t/snark-based-…

I will never understand the argument that an entire minority group should leave a country because individual hate crimes by random thugs have been committed against some of them. Imagine if that were applied universally. Also it seems to reward and even encourage the hate crimes!
There’s a reason anti-Semites on the far right are often pro-Israel. It’s partly a shared hatred of Muslims and Arabs, but it’s also a belief that everyone should be in their own homogeneous ethno-state. Screw that. The Diaspora is worth defending. Diversity is worth defending.
There are half a million Jews in France, more than in any country besides Israel and the US. They’re all supposed to move to Israel? And live where? Oh, right, on land that will be taken by force from Arabs. And that will make them safer than they are in Paris? It’s absurd.
