RT @davidminpdx: @ORDOJ 7. The Oregon governor as well as most of Oregon's legal elite – former governors, law school deans, judges, etc – signed a brief arguing the practice should be abolished. But not AG Ellen Rosenblum @ORDOJ. She chose to defend the racist practice.
RT @davidminpdx: @ORDOJ 3. In both Oregon and Louisiana nonunanimous juries, like Confederate monuments, are relics of past racist episodes – in Louisiana they were instituted as part of the state's embrace of Jim Crow. In Oregon they were part of an anti-immigrant backlash. https://t.co/m5H2CD6pYn

RT @BreatheNewWinds: See the photog directly behind SBS? That’s me. Wanna see some of the 1,144 photos I took of @BernieSanders as he weaved through the swaths of fans at the #IowaStateFair? Because every one of those shots paints a different picture than the one you’re passing as “truth.” https://t.co/c7S4zc07jQ
RT @Romanoff2020: I’m running to represent CO in the US Senate. Together we can enact #MedicareForAll, a #GreenNewDeal, comprehensive immigration reform, and an economy that works for all of us. Join our grassroots campaign at https://t.co/bNWm2RYTUl.
RT @cristinafortx: In the coming months, we will build a historic, grassroots campaign to remake Texas into a place where all of us live with dignity. Please chip in to help us build this campaign from the ground up: https://t.co/Q11t32nq7d https://t.co/lzHwbb8Jdb
RT @Nick_Tripoli: This is a game changer for me, y’all! Our Senate race here in Texas just got even more interesting & competitive! @cristinafortx is running for US Senate! I am so excited!!! #CancelCornyn #CristinaForTX https://t.co/m5krblxJlI
RT @AdamSerwer: Honestly this story from @kenklippenstein should be getting more attention. The FBI designated white supremacists a "medium threat" while identifying "black identity extremists" a top counterterrorism priority. https://t.co/nSU6D9OCb7

RT @chloecockburn: Let the lesson of Cincinnati sink in. Cutting incarceration and arrests can Reduce crime. How? Fewer people cycling through dangerous and debilitating #jail and #prison stays. Fewer kids growing up with missing parents. Less $$ on cops and cages and more on housing and treatment. https://t.co/sbySULqwqB
RT @BronxDefenders: The U.S. spends over $100 BILLION each year on policing and a vast bulk of it goes to the local level. In cities, the single largest allocation of resources goes to the police. This takes resources away from investing in communities that need it the most. https://t.co/6wNuZhRp8s

RT @cenkuygur: Yes, because the unarmed black man he shot in the back (read the autopsy report) as he was running away from him was so close to "harming" him. If you train cops to act like cowards that's exactly what they'll do. Idea that Wilson's life was in danger is ridiculous horseshit. https://t.co/hkTAT9PScA

RT @IntegrityforUSA: Today marks the two-year anniversary of the violence in #Charlottesville, VA. As our suit details, the violence was not spontaneous but, rather, the result of months of online organizing. We’ll recount in real time the key moments of that August 2017 weekend. #SueANazi

RT @DA_LarryKrasner: Prosecuting integrous cases built on reliable witnesses and strong evidence is critical to a fairer and more equitable justice system. That's why I'm proud to stand with a growing number of chief prosecutors who aren't relying on untrustworthy police: https://t.co/Je9wm6G2vo

RT @helenprejean: With a new law, Oregon joins a wave of states restricting or halting the death penalty. Senate Bill 1013 is not retroactive, but @OregonGovBrown has the power to commute death sentences and she should use it. https://t.co/HVDLAu2PI1

RT @DrRJKavanagh: Maybe when you are asked questions about the city's jail system, you should understand how it works. Maybe you should get that most people are held on Rikers on $500 or $1000 bail for low level offenses for a month or 2 months, just like her. https://t.co/U3AbpKEslK
RT @DrRJKavanagh: OR maybe you could launch a full investigation into how Layleen Polanco died on Rikers Island 2 months ago? Why she was in solitary confinement despite having a seizure disorder, why she was in jail at all on $500 bail. You know things that are within YOUR JURISDICTION. https://t.co/G7dK5t7gLV
RT @keribla: I’m at a forum this morning and @kimoggforda is talking abt bond amounts, diversion, and the Maleah Davis case – which ended up in the news again this week when the judge set $45k bail after the DA’s office asked for $100k bond. Background: https://t.co/8eKhUfKH44
RT @yamphoto: Today @OsopePatrisse, @ReformLAJails & supporters rally as they urge L.A. County Board of Supervisors to cancel a multibillion dollar contract for a centralized jail/mental health facility and rebid the project. More to come from my colleague @stiles. https://t.co/k42ioE4kP1

RT @ProudResister: BIDEN: “Those kids in Parkland came up to see me when I was Vice President.” FACT CHECK: The Parkland shooting happened more than a year *after* Biden was VP. REALITY CHECK: It’s time for Democrats to stop coddling and making excuses for Joe Biden. https://t.co/iZJLzO9jm0
RT @mviser: Party activists are increasingly anxious that Joe Biden, the consistent polling leader, has not disposed of persistent questions about whether he is well-equipped to take on Trump. My latest, on the state of play in a very fluid race in Iowa: https://t.co/raOACdhkxe
