Here’s Rep. Jimmy Gomez story of the life or death decisions he had to make when domestic terrorists stormed the Capitol. Spread this far and wide.

RIP my darling boy. It's been 5 years.
If you do one thing today, honor Aaron's memory by calling your Senators and Representatives in Congress and begging them to support

I know I recommended this article after someone posted it the other day but I hadn’t read it since it came out in 2013. I read it tonight...and it has really hit me hard.

So these “Trump Bibles” are just the remainders from Bibles that didn’t sell 3 years ago? Wow! The level of grift here is astounding. (How much did they cost in 2021?)
Aaron Swartz’s father is in desperate need of a kidney…he has been in renal failure for over a year now. If you know of anyone who might consider donating, please send them my way. And please boost this! Thanks everyone!
10 years ago today
@aaronsw
took his own life after overly aggressive prosecution.
He invented internet infrastructure.
He defeated the greatest threat the Internet had ever seen.
And you probably don't know who he is.
You should.
Here’s his story 🧵

Jay Sekulow and Pat Cipollone will forever have their names and reputations attached to this unconscionable and fraudulent diatribe (without fact or merit) against the House of Representatives. It reads exactly like one of Trump's tweets.
Today, fewer than 10 years after his death, virtually nobody talks about Aaron Swartz. He is mostly forgotten in Silicon Valley, and he is unknown to the wider public.😳

According to Wikipedia, Waterford crystal was in business from 1783 to 1851, when it closed for 100 years. Little Women takes place during the Civil War, right? 1860's. So, it’s possible they could have had a bowl. Also, maybe it’s a cut-glass bowl but not Waterford.

These things (White House, Marine band, etc.) don’t belong to Trump! If he wants to use them for his rallies, he should reimburse the government or go hire his own backdrop and music.
If you knew Aaron, it’s nice to spend a little time with him again. If you didn’t know him, this documentary is a great introduction.
Watch or re-watch The Internet’s Own Boy (on YouTube).
@realDonaldTrump
Shut the fuck up! Your "sick and biased AGENDA" is to destroy our free press, cornerstone of our democracy. You were not elected King--why don't you try supporting our democratic institutions?!

Today the 3rd anniversary of her arrest & jailing I learn that the fed prison is restricting all communication in & out, keeping them locked in 24/7 with 0 media, & they have 0 hot water again.
Yet judge says she is in the best place possible.

Yeah…warning to anyone tempted to sign up for “TruthSocial” just to see what it’s like: you must know your personal info will be going straight to Russia.

He did not break into MIT. It was an unlocked janitorial supply closet; and, as a Harvard Fellow, he had complete open access to the MIT computer system.
Herschel Walker is a multi-millionaire worth up to $50M. He has so many scandals tied to his wealth and power that it's hard to keep track.
So we unpacked the most dangerous parts of his record in one place, including key stories that flew under the radar. 🧵
On this 5th anniversary of Aaron's death, there is nothing better you can do than watch The Internet's Own Boy (except contact your reps to support

)!

“Documents can’t really be merged and integrated and queried. They serve…”
