Officers from @BPDAlerts in Buffalo, NY threw an elderly man to the ground, where he laid motionless and bled out of his ears. They walked away.

There is no chance that these cops are better than the criminals they're supposedly protecting us from.
Another angle. Listen to the thud. Way to protect and serve, @BPDAlerts. I'm sure that man posed quite a threat to your fucking army.

UPDATE: The two officers involved have been suspended without pay pending an Internal Affairs investigation. The 75-year-old man is in stable condition in the hospital.

HOLY SHIT. Per @BrianSimsPA, in PA's state legislature, GOP leadership HID the fact that a Republican tested positive for COVID and yet still interacted with Democratic members, who then went back home to their families, likely exposing their loved ones. And the Republicans KNEW.
Not only that, but just months ago, @BrianSimsPA had quietly donated a kidney to a neighbor dying of renal failure. He's immunocompromised. He could lose his life because Republicans didn't want to UNDERMINE THEIR OWN TALKING POINTS BY ADMITTING THAT A GOP MEMBER TESTED POSITIVE.
.@BrianSimsPA: "Holy shit. It’s not your business to put my life at risk. It’s not your business to put the lives of the CHILDREN of our members at risk-- of the SPOUSES of our members at risk."

@TerryMoran The extent to which the media simply doesn't understand its own job is staggering. They act like stenographers and umpires when they're supposed be be fact-checkers and journalists.
@TerryMoran Like come on Terry, you're the Senior National Correspondent at ABC. So I don't know-- *IS IT* A GOOD LOOK TO WEAR A MASK DURING A PANDEMIC?

If only there was some profession in this country where people separated fact from fiction and delivered the answer to us ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@TerryMoran But anyway, hope the question got good engagement, which was clearly the point. I'm sure that offering a platform to equivocate wearing & not wearing a mask in the middle of a global pandemic couldn't possibly have any dangerous consequences for the general public.

The media is just so fundamentally broken in this country.
Do you think it's a good idea to stick your hand in this?

Or do you think it's a bad idea to stick your hand in this?
The media just doesn't understand its own job. They act like stenographers and umpires when they're supposed to be fact-checkers and journalists.

That he's both sides-ing WEARING A MASK DURING A PANDEMIC is proof that it's really not about finding the truth anymore, is it?
