Love going through archival CNN footage. Chuck Schumer campaigning for Senate in the Rockaways in 1998.
Archival political footage is my version of Netflix.
Watching an '88 Crossfire and they're debating the lack of white ethnics on the tickets.
Mitt Romney working at a Dunkin' Donuts (2002).

This brave little boy, Jonah Finn passed just before Thanksgiving. Jonah was an amazing boy who is going to change the world. Before he passed, Jonah's tumor resections were successfully cultured in an established line which is used in research laboratories throughout the world.
One of the Team Beans Fund projects is funding research into his rare brain cancer at Dana Farber. And his amazing family has a foundation funding this research in his honor you can donate to here and read his story: jonahfinnfoundation.org
Please consider supporting these research efforts in honor of our friend Jonah. jonahfinnfoundation.org

I’m really proud of this incredible work of art we just put on sale to benefit the Team Beans Fund. It’s a childhood cancer awareness ribbon made from 320 names of childhood cancer warriors by designer @RoniLagin. The t-shirt is on sale for three weeks. customink.com/fundraising/th…
The last 10 months without Francesca have been the hardest and emptiest of my life and I don’t know how I would have survived without the support of everyone, but especially our fellow childhood cancer families. customink.com/fundraising/th…
It was next to the shirt how even the smallest voice can change the world. customink.com/fundraising/th…

I have huge issues w/the framing of this article on St. Jude as someone who has written about/experienced financial burdens related to childhood cancer. It hangs a lot of these issues on SJ, when they're one of the only institutions trying to address them

propublica.org/article/st-jud…
St. Jude's is one of the only children's hospitals that covers housing/travel/food. I have some issues w/their fundraising practices, but I don't think it's fair to hang this on them when it's a huge problem that probably can only be addressed w/legislation like paid leave...
...to help struggling families get immediate financial relief.

As I pointed out the other day, a bunch of people in conservative Twitter misidentified two of these people as young VA democratic party staffers leading to them getting quite a bit of harassment. Lincoln Project let them take the brunt of this.

Instead, a couple of young staffers in their 20s not involved with this at all had people harassing their family members and messaging them over something they had nothing to do with. Not ok.
This guy still hasn’t deleted his tweet or corrected the record it has thousands of retweets. As far as I can tell he’s the person who started it.

I emailed w/the head of the Infant Brain Tumor Program at Dana Farber (the program started with the $1.5 million @TeamBeansFund donations). I'm really excited to tell you very soon about all the clinical trials, studies, & other research @DanaFarber will be using this money for.
Childhood brain cancer research is underfunded because of a lack of investment from pharma due to the small number of patients. To date, there's never been a drug developed specifically for childhood brain tumors. With this funding, we will looking at new less toxic treatments.
To date, we've raised over $1.5 million since Francesca died. Nearly all our donations were grassroots, no money from big corporate companies (not that we wouldn't accept it) or massive charitable grant making foundations. We've done it all almost with money from regular folks...

A man charged in the Capitol riot spoke at very small event for J6 defendant last month attended by a dozen or so Proud Boys, despite being ordered by a judge to not associate w/them.

Photos/video show him near the Proud Boys at the event.

Jackson tweeted, as we note, a photo with Arizona congressional candidate Walt Blackman that showed a man in Proud Boys attire in the background of it.

cnn.com/2021/10/23/pol…
A video of the event shows a group of Proud Boys later standing just several feet away from him in a crowd mingling after the event as he talk to Blackman.
