my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Press Freedom: A broad coalition of news outlets, citing First Amendment rights, reject restrictive new Pentagon press policy. Move creates a showdown with journalists who don’t sign facing loss of credentials and expulsion from building, threatening public access to information.

Nearly every media outlet is announcing they will refuse to sign the Pentagon’s new rule stating they cannot report information if it’s not government “authorized.”

Even Newsmax is refusing to sign.

Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.

This idiot keeps bragging about the 20 hostages being released in another country while he's kidnapping thousands of people a day here in America.

Fuck him and the fascism he rode in on.

Clever tactic! Hopefully this strategy will be deployed all over the country so we can identify who needs to be investigated & indicted later.

The Oct. 18th "No Kings Day of Peaceful Action" has now surpassed 2,500 community events across all 50 states, per No Kings organizers.

All of these events were "organized by average Americans across personal, political, and geographic demographics."

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice.

Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice.

Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice.

Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice.

Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP just chose to do this.

FLORIDA now requires public schools to share space with charter schools, and “one charter operator intends to occupy space in more than 100 public schools (!)” 🤔

Privatizing public schools at breakneck speed, filling their pockets with taxpayer funds. www.fox13news.com/news/charter...

The thing that annoys me most of all about the Covid inquiry is that no evidence past 2022 is considered. This is the date the government declared it was over and this is why we must have another inquiry to look at child deaths that have gone unmentioned and the devastation of long covid and
