Since my law school alma mater is on this list, I need to know when we ride. I'm in DC, so the alumni of all these schools need to make noise.

Hint: it’s not okay when they do it to Palestinian green card holders, it’s not okay when they do it to German tourists, it’s not okay when they do it to Mexican people regardless of citizenship, it is not okay. Ever.

The nature of a cult is that it will turn you against your own family. Your loved ones will cheer as you are led off to the camps because hurting even you is what is necessary to bring on the glorious nation. apnews.com/article/trum...

There is so much coming at us from every angle, and obviously it is meant to be overwhelming and debilitating. I don't have any answers, so it feels kind of silly to tell people to rest or pace themselves. In the midst of a fiery inferno, who has time for that? Yet...

Real talk @democrats.org, STOP asking for money. Folks are losing jobs or waiting to find out when their jobs will be eliminated. Get out in these streets with the protestors. File lawsuits, block traffic, refuse to allow anything through that will harm more ppl. In other words: FIGHT BACK!

This entire fiasco was staged by Trump & Vance to humiliate Zelensky, so now everyone knows not to trust us. This entire week of meetings with foreign leaders has revealed that the US is now run by bullies and toadies.

something I haven’t seen mentioned enough is that by replacing Joy Reid with a trio of Simone Sanders-Townsend, What Up Michael Steele and Senator’s-Daughter Alicia Menendez and Alex Wagner with Jen Psaki, msnbc is choosing to replace people who built careers in news with political operatives.

I need people to get just as upset about the proposed hijacking of DC Home Rule, the District of Columbia where 700K people live, as they are about that Burger King cover, the overriding of local laws in NYC, and this proposed takeover of the Postal Service. Dictator for 1 day? No from Day 1!

Stop calling these acts of deliberate malicious destruction mistakes — if you close your eyes and fire machine gun spray ceaselessly into a crowd claiming you just want to scare some of them off, it’s not a mistake that there are casualties.

What's truly remarkable about this picture? MAGA claims this is him trolling his haters; WE know he means it and is playing them. Wanna bet who'll be right?

I lost my job at the National Science Foundation yesterday, along with 167 of my colleagues, including some dear friends. This was the best job I've ever had, and I thought it would be my last. The PI community has been sympathetic and supportive, without exception. I will miss working for you.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Ads to thank her boss for deporting people on the taxpayer dime when a phone call and free media could achieve the same result... But folks losing their jobs, lives ruined? DHS Sec. Kristi Noem won't lose an eyelash. Nor will the DESPOTUS miss his spray tan. And Musk won't find any govt waste...

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I am the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons: -We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. -The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous. 🧵⬇️
