It's true that "CRT" is a cynical political branding strategy, but the idea that there is nothing else to see here is, as @MattWelch reports out here, totally bizarre and at odds with the facts. — PolitiTweet.org

7/ The result: A Times investigation identified more than 400 instances in just the past five years in which officers killed unarmed civilians who had not been under pursuit for violent crimes. — PolitiTweet.org

6/ Fueling the culture of traffic stops is the federal government, which issues over $600 million a year in highway safety grants that subsidize ticket writing. At least 20 states have evaluated police performance on the number of traffic stops per hour. — PolitiTweet.org

5/ A hidden scaffolding of financial incentives underpins the policing of motorists in the United States, encouraging some communities to essentially repurpose armed officers as revenue agents searching for infractions largely unrelated to public safety. https://t.co/11RBOmMsfb — PolitiTweet.org

4/ But why are there *tens of millions* of traffic stops a year in America -- opening up so many opportunities for encounters to go wrong? The answer is simple, @mmcintire & @mhkeller report: $$$ — PolitiTweet.org
Nick Confessore @nickconfessore
3/ The stories reported here by @ddknyt @SteveEder @Kim_Barker & @JulieATate are horrifying. More than three-quarters of the unarmed motorists were killed while attempting to flee. One was shot by an officer to avoid scratching the officer's patrol car. https://t.co/1b80eN9rXP — PolitiTweet.org

2/ They found that police culture & training has taught many officers -- wrongly -- that traffic stops are high-risk and deadly. The result: A pattern of overreaction & hyper-violence against people who are neither not wielding a weapon nor under pursuit for a violent crime. — PolitiTweet.org

1/ Earlier this year, a group of my colleagues set out to understand the forces and patterns that led to so many deadly encounters between cops and citizens. So they looked at traffic stops -- by far the most common interaction between police and civilians. — PolitiTweet.org

@richardfromla That didn't bother me, personally -- it's more or less from the novel (where the action is largely off-page) but in the context of the book and the series it is a significant moment for the character. — PolitiTweet.org

@SonnyBunch You were right about the IMAX, though I almost lost my lunch watching some kind of quick-cut jerky-camera heist trailer on it during the previews. — PolitiTweet.org

Oscar Isaac just doesn't carry the duke. Javier Bardem plays Stilgar as an eccentric -- it's funny but weird. Zendaya's Chani is remade as a Marvel spitfire-type. None of it really holds together. Every time Jason Momoa shows up, I think "Hey, it's Aquaman!" — PolitiTweet.org

"Dune" is a good movie but not a great one. Now that I've seen it, I get the criticism of the huge set designs, but the bigger issues IMO are some poor casting choices and the Hollywood-style dialogue wedged in alongside the Herbertisms. — PolitiTweet.org
