In the midst of a pandemic & concomitant impending global economic disaster, it is frankly unnerving to see Sanders' staff on here arguing with other staff members' former bosses rather than putting together SOMETHING to address these crises when Bernie's campaign is crashing.
So @ewarren put out a plan for #coronavirus in January. Ten days ago she put out a comprehensive plan for economic recovery (she had worked on #TARP in 2009). Biden or Bernie should be trying to get her AND her plans on board. Her resume on these issues is stellar--and essential.
Both Biden and Bernie should be issuing statements this morning about the #StockMarketCrash2020. This would help ameliorate the situation by presenting a competent and knowledgeable alternative to Trump. I do hope there is someone on there staffs to do this.
*their staffs. Blasted autocorrect.

Symone Sanders is a black woman who worked tremendously hard on Bernie Sanders' 2016 campaign and last night one of Bernie's supporters hit her in the head and knocked her down.

That's not progressivism, that's white nationalism.
Get your freaking sh*t together, people.
If you don't like that Symone Sanders switched teams, maybe ask WHY she did so--and why Bernie didn't fight to keep her. But injuring her at a rally? That ain't it.
Here is the story about the Detroit rally last night and how @SymoneDSanders was injured.

Berrnie gave a good stump speech on healthcare issues with regard to #coronavirus/#COVID19. His policy, especially on sick workers is good & crucially important, but the quick dissovle to "the Establishment"instead of to Trump and the GOP was a missed opportunity.
@CuomoPrimeTime
One of the major distinguishing factors between Bernie and Warren was her vast array of policy proposals and her refusal to get stuck in the single note of "billionaires!" Also, she repeatedly said, "Look--I'm.a Democrat and as a Democrat I think X." And she wasn't angry 24/7.
It's clear Bernie is stressed by the prospect of Tuesday's voting. The irony for Bernie is that he should be the candidate people shift to in this crisis, but he is extra cranky instead of extra accessible and it is not what people are looking for. They want stability & comfort.

Oh.📌 This.📌 Thread.📌
Some of Trump's top advisors were exposed to #COVID19/#coronavirus at #CPAC. Among them: Kellyanne Conway and Betsy DeVos. Also everybody's fave duo: Diamond & Silk.
Whooboy.
The fascinating aspect of the fear rippling through those who attended CPAC, is these are people fundamentally opposed to science. They literally disbelieve the objective FACT of science, which includes the evolution of viruses and bacteria. They oppose vaccines.
Yet now as people in biohazard suits and face shields take nasal swabs to test for #coronavirus, the objective FACT of science is undeniable. Thoughts and prayers don't stop bullets or viruses. Yet the GOP will STILL refuse to hold Trump to account for his anti-science bungling.

This is a roundup of what I found to be the most interesting & helpful sources on my journey into the void. #Coronavirus #Pandemic #Misinformation #CDC #CPP #WHO
This is for friends & family, but also to raise concern over media censorship & begin a discussion of what are best practices for both traditional & decentralized media outlets. This is a collection of sources to tell a larger story and spark interest.
Very few sources peer reviewed. Some behind paywalls. Some mainstream news. Some International News. Some in other languages (Use chrome). Some Harvard medical Journals. Some unverified. Some factually incorrect. Have some salt with your rice & beans.

"The Green New Deal" is going to take movement tactics. Bullshit. It's global - sitting in the wings. Your consent is being engineered. Spending billions to have you demand & "fight" for it. They play with you like a cat plays with a mouse before it decapitates it. For fun.
Who else is tasked with building the social license required to implement the Global Green New Deal?

Let's start with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, & May Boeve, Executive Director of 350-DOT-org.

The #NonProfitIndustrialComplex: an extension of the ruling class.

January 23, 2020, World Economic Forum: "Striking a Green New Deal"

This morning I’ve been reviewing our back catalogue of articles about #disaster #grantmaking & it seems we already know a lot about how to give #grants & other #funding in the wake of a crisis like the #bushfires - a thread for grantmakers & other institutional funders:
Following the 2004 tsunami, we searched for international best practice and interviewed a range of local folk about how to do disaster grantmaking better. We cautioned grantmakers not to rush in, but to pause and see how they could help fill gaps later.
We interviewed orgs like @PhilanthropyAus and philanthropy experts like @mliffman. Michael Liffman told us that amidst the emotion & frenzy of giving, professional grantmakers should take a sober approach.

hi! digitization/IR librarian/archivist types! how have you dealt with arbitrary take down "request" (more like order) that go against best practice from uni admin? as in something like "all existence must be erased from the IR because we say so" & the reason is... not copyright.
i am keeping this extremely vague in public b/c i don't want to be identified publicly for raising a fuss b/c i don't want to be out of a job but this is really messing with me because the decision is... it's not even a best practice thing, it's... morally and ethically wrong.
this is really messing with me. i'm not the only one here mad/upset but we have no recourse here or room to protest, it's coming directly from the uni's president.

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
