NEW: A network of 1,300 websites targeting small towns and cities across the U.S. is built not on traditional journalism, but rather propaganda ordered up by Republican groups and P.R. firms.
A nearly yearlong investigation by @daveyalba and me:

Schools can't even control lice, you think they can control Covid-19.

Estimates of the Haitian population put it at about 5% of Miami-Dade's population. About 10 percent of the COVID deaths come from people of Haitian descent, according to a new county summary. Also, about 25% of deaths come from Black residents (about 16% of population)*

Big fight coming for Miami-Dade’s exclusive stash of federal coronavirus relief money. Cities want a chunk of it.
MDC has received over $450 million in coronavirus funding via the federal CARES ACT. Unfortunately, cities under 500,000 population were excluded from receiving direct appropriations. No city in M-D reaches the 500,000 threshold so our County government has all the funds. (1/3)

Perhaps the greatest anti-slavery speech ever uttered is “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July,” by Frederick Douglass, in 1852. I wanted to make the speech more accessible. Here’s a thread with an abridged version of the speech we should reread every #FourthofJuly. 1/

Snipers on Elijah’s mother while she spoke. Riot gear to dismantle a violin vigil with children in a park. Tear gas & pepper spray on children barely in their teens. How can you look away?

The goal of @JebBush, @richardcorcoran and @GovRonDeSantis is to privatize public education. Don’t let the teacher pay raise fool you. Driving veteran teachers out will decrease cost and increase profit at private schools in the future. That is their plan.

From someone on CounterSocial "ME, A CYBERPUNK FAN IN THE 90's: Why do they think we'll only talk in weird slang in the future?

.@MiamiDadePD cops shove Miami Herald photographer, falsely arrest peaceful protestors, lie in report and charge them “under an archaic statute that was ironically created to break up Black gatherings in the era of racist Jim Crow laws“ #BecauseMiami amp.miamiherald.com/news/loc…

High pressure build over the SE this weekend. Less rains. LOTS of heat into the 100s starting Friday. Add in the big dust plume for a bonus.

Brian Kemp and the GA secretary of state are again overseeing a dysfunctional and likely corrupted election. This is not an accident. This is intentional and Democrats need to be prepared for this on a national scale in November
#GAprimaries
Poll worker just tells long line of voters that the machines are not working properly and they don’t know why. Says technician is coming from 17 miles away in downtown Atlanta. Many people leaving now. #GeorgiaPrimary

I don't know what he's struggling with, but Miami Beach Commissioner @RickyArriolaMB has become irrational and unstable. People who knew him don't recognize him anymore. If he has any friends and family left who care, they should consider an intervention. wsvn.com/news/politics/miami…

All I'm saying is: how can we be SURE fascism is bad unless "Fascism Is Good" has gotten equal space in the marketplace of ideas?

@MainStEmployers #PPP, SBA numbers show America's employers giving back more PPP funding than they are borrowing. PPP is essential for a successful reopening of the economy, but it needs to be fixed. Pass Paycheck Protection Flexibility now! sba.gov/funding-programs/loa…
