this is violence against the American people and should be met in kind.

Call out from the UofMn Graduate Students Labor Union to show up at Ft Snelling tomorrow. Come on, you gophers! Tell the feds they can’t take one of our own.

Required reading to understand what's going on today, I think.

Unions are what made American manufacturing jobs good. If you want to create better jobs that don't require degrees, the solution is unions, not tariffs. But they know that. The goal isn't to help workers– it's the opposite. It's to destabilize, consolidate power, and wrest control from workers.

I planted wildflowers at the Tesla dealership today. I thought it would be great if there were 10 people there. There were at least 100. And you know who most of them were? Middle aged liberals who took their American flags, put their "we believe" yard signs on sticks, and stood by the highway.

Yes, and in 2014, it was SJWs. In 2016, it was cultural Marxism. It's nothing new, but it does seem to be getting more mainstream with each iteration.

This is so funny ... people with PhDs do not cost nearly this much (the vast majority of the time)

Exactly one year ago, 25 year old US Airman Aaron Bushnell took his own life by self-immolation in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington DC. Rest in Power, brother. I didnt know you in life, but I will never stop thinking about the strength, resolve, and compassion you showed in death

This is true and it's why a rights-based framework is so limited. What does it actually mean that "health care is a human right" if people don't have it? Let's stop thinking in terms of rights and start thinking about how to get people the things they need and deserve.

A minor point but I wish more people understood that "it's not a Nazi salute, it's a Roman salute" is like saying "it's not a Nazi symbol, it's a swastika."

Can confirm.

People who write about "this is the wrong fight to pick," never ever actually fight for anything. Feel free to ignore them.

He's describing what is probably the most classic form of sleep paralysis – waking up with the feeling of something sitting or pressing on your chest. This is very common knowledge. Even if you believe demons are real, look for a natural explanation before you jump to a supernatural one.

Be me this morning -listen to a podcast about the Cass report* -read a NYT article that argues for applying her guidance in the US -start work for the day, fiddling with R code -pull up this graph** -start crying

¿Por qué no los dos?
