Naomi Klein: "One of the things that we can learn from Zohran #Mamdani is.. he moonlights as a #history #professor.. actually educating people about radical history, because we don’t learn it in school.. people in Canada generally don’t know the history of #public ownership,”

And "we perform best when we actually have to fight for our ideas."

Capital chased engagement. Communities got precarity. We can rewire incentives to finance public goods as reliably as we finance platforms. Blueprint inside.

Washington $100M Police Grant Yet To Hire Officers

https://newsfactsnetwork.com/local-news/washington-100m-police-grant-yet-to-hire-officers/

> Olympia, Washington — Washington’s new $100 million police hiring grant program has not yet resulted in any officers being hired, despite being championed by Gov. Bob Ferguson as a response to the state’s last-place ranking in per-capita police staffing.

Yet even further proof that our federalized public tax dollars must not ever, certainly never routinely, be used to bribe community police squads. Defunding is not ridiculous; it's a critical necessity. Local public funding for local #publicGoods Get the corrupted feds OUT of neighborhoods.
