Attended the pro Palestine rally today at the Little Arabia district in Anaheim. The event was organized by @AlAwdaPRRC @answercoalition @pslnational @palyouthmvmt. I got to interview Selena, one of the organizers, on the successful demonstration. 1/3 – at Anaheim, CA
I have to disagree with Taylor on this one. Having a cellphone free classroom is beneficial to students. Here is a recent study from 2024 where they surveyed 1,490 participating public K-12 schools from every state and the District of Columbia. nces.ed.gov/whatsnew/press_r…

TLDR: Late stage capitalism is making it extremely difficult to sustain people let alone a family.
Seeing lots of talk assuming the 4B movement is behind South Korea's ultra-low birthrate. But as I wrote here, this has much more prosaic and obvious causes:

What @dsa_losangeles has been trying to do since 2020 has already been completed by @PortlandDSA in one election with @kanalforpdx @mitch4portland @TeacherTiff4PDX and @pnwpolicyangel being elected. Goes to show how much change is happening in Portland under its new gov reform.
@dsa_losangeles is one city council member away from a third of the governing body of America’s second largest city

CA-47 Replacing Katie Porters seat
The latest update from the @ocregistrar is out, and we continue to gain votes. We're now up 2,713 votes (up from 1,078 yesterday), and feeling good about our momentum.
Thank you to all our amazing supporters. We would not be in this position without you.

"Its analysis found around 44% of verified victims were children and 26% women. The ages most represented among the dead were five to nine-year-olds."
Nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children, UN says bbc.in/4fH3RfP

Love Shane but I disagree with him with this take. Harris/Dems ran to the right on this campaign, saying they want to straighten the boarder, have an "opportunity economy" and have a republican in the cabinet. They got walloped, bad. @RepMGP is a continuation of this strategy
Despondent Dems looking for a potential path out of the political wilderness could start w/ @repmgp in SW Washington — who is winning a second term in her red district by a wider margin than '22 — and @natsfert's in-depth profile on her from this summer.

Here @MattBruenig points out her wild framing on the fentanyl crisis here where she connects it to the board somehow?

Amazing reporting about a long standing issue that isn't framed as an issue in modern day. The U.S imperialism machine claims many victims like the women in this story. They are so courageous. – at Jindo-gun, Republic of Korea
This is my report on former comfort women who were forced to service U.S. soldiers. Two women courageously agreed to share their stories with me, but it wasn’t an easy process. 🧵 (1/5)

On day two of @OregonNurses the strike. Katie Moslander, an orthopedic nurse and Providence employee for 16 years, spoke with me on why she is on the picket line and the decision to lock the nurse out after the 3 day strike ends.
Providence hired replacement nurses for five-days. – at Oregon, USA
Went to cover the first day of strikes for @OregonNurses at Providence St. Vincent. Nurses are calling for better staffing, pay and health plans. Providence said it has made "market-competitive" offers across the six hospitals participating in the labor actions.
