U.S. Sanctions Could Starve Millions of Afghans. Will Congress Act? The Intercept's @lhfang asked lawmakers if they'll intervene to pressure the Biden administration to end sanctions that could cause famine in Afghanistan this winter. Few seemed to care.

Amazon did not respond to The Intercept’s requests for comment about why employees were not instructed to stay home amid tornado warnings. The company has now encrypted internal help ticket messages about the Illinois facility. https://t.co/rNsMURAeOl — PolitiTweet.org

The Supreme Court ruled that Texas’s six-week abortion ban could remain in effect and barred any meaningful way to challenge it. Other states could soon pass laws with the same sort of legal maneuvering to single out rights they don’t care for. https://t.co/lkCb8WvMrx — PolitiTweet.org

In the video, Resnick calls that solution the “Wall of Drones,” in which glinting boxes would be deployed across the border, each harboring a small robotic quadcopter with high-definition and thermal sensors, self-piloting abilities, human-detection software, and a stun gun. — PolitiTweet.org
