So emaciated after a few weeks? Look closely at the background. Is anyone haunted by history? DJT defies SCOTUS - no negotiations to free Abrego Garcia, but asks Bukele to prep for “homegrowns”. Who is next? You? Me? This is not democracy. This is tyranny. (1/2)

My students are being made illegal overnight and told to leave or be “deported to a country that isn’t [home]”. For a flipping PARKING TICKET. Make noise, white America. This administration has no interest in following law. Only we can more safely stop them. (2/2)

Musk has placed the entire staff of the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) on administrative leave.

This is how you do it. The "Mutual Academic Defense Compact". The moral imperative may be to fight... but the strategic imperative is to not fight alone: www.gazettenet.com/UMass-Amhers...

Seeking: good resources for R1 university faculty worried about ICE raids in the classroom. Thanks!

If the Democrats don’t make an absolute buffet out of this group chat national security scandal, primary each and every one of them. It’s literally on a silver platter.

The maintenance of racism requires the public’s ignorance of racism. As the Trump administration strives to unwind the Department of Education and defund libraries, I wanted to elevate these words. I went on to explain how enslavers legislated for ignorance. #departmentofeducation #forourlibraries

“History will remember this day — when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.” - Liz Cheney, February 28, 2025 😳 What an embarrassment.

In response to Trump’s assertion, “He who saves his Country does not violate any Law,” we say: The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants.

Arts access for young people isn’t just about careers – it helps us be better humans, says director Aaron Parsons 👇

I mean, the guy pardoned Blago and Adams. COME. ON.

What can YOU do? What did you do today? what will you do tomorrow?

What if there wasn’t a known, finite quantity of what ever is “needed” to attain your American Dream? What if taling care of (all of) each other would rise ALL boats together? What do you think it would it take to get there?

A “scientist” who claims science isn’t political neither knows science nor politics. There are few branches of human activity more political than science.

“Our poorest citizens, our farmers, live ration to ration, while Wall Street (Musk) robs ’em blind in search of chips to cash in.”

Hey, Big Ag- you know what happens when populations experience over crowding, right? #SupplyChainResilience

RALLY FROM THE TREASURY BUILDING: We are here to tell Elon Musk and DOGE that a secret squad of company men cannot pull off a hostile takeover of America's Social Security and tax information in the dead of night. youtu.be/G4vt0uvXbp4

Academics; The same folks will be reviewing your proposals as did in 2024. They have the same values as before. REFRAME the work to keep your Program Director and program’s jobs easier. Make it “easy” to fund your dreams. (don’t give over more than you must!!)

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

Today was spending 30% of my time talking about the current reality and caring for my colleagues. I was reminded how fragile we all are and how to find hope in times of darkness. (Thank you, Rev. Lyall & Dr. Pitts!) This resonated A LOT. I hope it helps you. howtosavetheworld.ca/2024/04/16/a...

Trump fires only woman leader of the Armed Services, Commandant Admiral Linda Lee Fagan. Cites she was a DEI hire.

The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution states that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

“Radical Leftists can either choose to swim against the tide and reject the overwhelming will of the people, or they can get on board and work with President Trump,” White House spokesperson Harrison Fields told the AP. #JustKeepSwimming

PLAN: - Break up Mono-& Oligopolies - People should make a living by working 40 hrs/week - Strongly funded PUBLIC education & healthy, diverse, & local journalism (see 1) are the foundations of Democracy - We have One Planet - ALL people deserve the right to life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness

Every family and child deserves to feel safe and secure in the place they call home. Every resident of Illinois should know their rights. I intend to protect those rights and ensure our state laws are followed.

This is literally how fascism works.

GO SEE THIS. You will NOT regret a second.

Let history sound the alarm of how The future demands that we fight for it now. It will only be ours if we keep marching, keep marching on. @suffsmusical.bsky.social #Suffs #KeepMarching
