NEW: The importance of being litigious. Lawsuits matter — even when they might not "win." This afternoon, at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/the-import...

Our Global Spanish Civil War gallery is doing what has never been done before: exploring the global impact of the war in Spain beyond the Great Powers and the International Brigades. At the moment there are sections on 18 countries with many more to come. www.vscw.ca/en/node/305 #Publichistory #🗃️

Zira Box ya tiene nuevo libro. Y repite en @alianzaeditorial.bsky.social

We created the Open Gallery to welcome contributions to the Virtual Museum of the Spanish Civil War from the public. If you have an object related to the Civil War or its aftermath and would like to share it, please write to me at [email protected]. www.vscw.ca/en/node/432 #🗃️ #Publichistory #scwmuseum

Since federal health information is getting harder to come by, I thought I'd share this new resource. Cornell's College of Veterinary Medicine launched an online Avian Flu Resource Center--a one-stop clearinghouse for trustworthy information on bird flu. www.vet.cornell.edu/highly-patho...

I’m the dairy farmer running to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

Turbulent, corrupt times call for more reporters. We're hiring. Come join our team. talkingpointsmemo.com/careers

When we launched the Virtual Museum of the Spanish Civil War, it had 130 objects in five galleries with texts in Spanish and English. Now it has 480 objects in 11 galleries. All texts are in French as well, and some galleries are in Basque, Catalan, and Galician. #Publichistory #🗃️ #scwmuseum

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

Thus far DOGE operatives have have full read access to govt payments system at Treasury (yr tax refunds, bank info, etc); full access to all CMS data (anything tied to your Medicare or Medicaid); and now they are seeking full access to everyone's tax returns. Feeling safer?

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

It’s quite clear by now that the answer to “why is the Trump administration doing x terrible thing?” is that they are *trying* to dismantle America and destabilize the entire world.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Brilliant.

Remember that whole argument that you don’t need to learn history because you can google it? Well…

Important thread for federal civil servants

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Howard University is now a R1 university, the first HBCU with a research one designation. H-U definitely knows!

These members of congress agreed to withhold their votes on funding bills while we fight this consitutional crisis. If they represent you, call/email them tomorrow and say thanks, give them your support, and tell them to hold firm. Find their contact info here: Reps.fyi

I hope it dawns on colleagues in the sciences that the road to the NIH cuts began not with Trump but with normalizing cuts to the humanities. All that time, most of them showed no interest or stood by in silence and indifference—in a way their predecessors in the 20th c hadn’t done.

Would be a good time, historians, to make sure all your archive photos are safely backed up to an offline hard drive or three. #🗃️

PROTESTORS at The Department of Labor in D.C. STOPPED Elon Musk and his squad from entering. #USProtests are the way to stopping #3E It's working.

A street artist in DC is putting up these posters all over the city. I’d love to get one.

Hearing nonsense that Ds are threatening a shutdown. False. Entire matter is in GOP hands. What's happening is that Rs are coming hat in hand to Ds for help because they can't agree among themselves. Ds shld have a simple demand. No help until the criminal conduct stops.

Integrity. Bravo.

We’re hearing reports that Elon’s DOGE is setting its sights on the Department of Labor next. Join us at 3 p.m. for a rally to keep DOGE out of the DOL! Working people deserve a STRONG Department of Labor that works for them, NOT for billionaires and corporate CEOs. go.aflcio.org/dogeout

New: A group representing thousands of US doctors is suing the Trump administration over the sudden removal of public health data from government websites, arguing it creates a “dangerous gap” in information available to track disease and diagnose patients www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
