It’s now 1AM in Gaza. Unfortunately in the coming two to three hours you will hear that Israeli is carrying intense air strikes. This is when they kill. When they do, they kill people when they are asleep. They kill as many as they can.

The US is canceling epidemiology research under the lie, concocted by Nazis and Zionists, that higher education jeopardizes Jews (??). Despicable and unforgivable

These are innocent people, seeking asylum, who have been shipped to the comic book version of a totalitarian labor camp, with zero process at all, based on a deeply xenophobic administration noticing their tattoos. It's fascism outright, at home, and history will damn the Democrats who are silent

Images of killed infants and burned refugee tents in Gaza have returned to my sight, and I realized the arrows that had struck and built up on my heart over the past 2 years had fallen away since the ceasefire started. It's all so horrible.

The cowards attacked families in Gaza at 2AM while everyone was asleep. Their only aim is to kill as many people as possible. Bloodthirsty state.

Don’t worry there was nothing nefarious going on, we have a very good explanation. Our concentration camps are just overcrowded and infested with disease.

I’m struck by how close we’re getting to finally curing some of the world’s worst diseases—sickle cell, Alzheimers, pancreatic cancer, etc.—at the same time that the world’s worst people are destroying medical research and care around the world.

This isn't going to get the attention of Columbia, but it's at least as bad: the University of Maine is having its funding cut off because the governor of Maine dared to challenge Trump.

Mahmoud Khalil’s family is raising funds for his legal defense and to support his wife who is 8 months pregnant. Please consider giving whatever you can - every contribution will go a long way in helping bring Mahmoud home. Please donate and share:
