Why aren’t any universities standing up for #Columbia and #Penn? Imagine if 30 universities banded together. Or 20. Or even 10. Do they think obeying in advance will protect them?

#ChuckSchumer needs to spend more time with his family.

Tim Kaine would make a great Senate Minority Leader. #TimKaine.

Note to self: stop posting about politics.

They took #MahmoudKalil from his home in NYC to a detention center in Jena, Louisiana, also known as the middle of nowhere. It’s a 4-hr drive from New Orleans. Far from his family in NYC. Far from anyone. They love being cruel. They have no evidence against him. #MAGA

Here’s one good thing from my day today: tile design on a pillar, grand central terminal subway station, NYC.

Is Trump still watching TV all day? He looks active but my guess is, when he’s not speaking in front of a crowd, he’s napping or watching TV. Just curious.

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

A reminder: English is a foreign language for Zelensky. He handled the extraordinary attack today in fluent English, without a translator. #Zelensky

They could have impeached him in 2019. They could have impeached him in 2021. Instead they repeated his lies, nominated him for president, and approved the most incompetent cabinet in history. Senate Republicans are responsible for this cruel, vengeful administration. #GOP

#Zelensky #Ukraine We support you and we support Ukraine. ❤️🇺🇦.

Regarding the cancellation of Black Studies programs: should we expect Jewish Studies to be banned also? Jews are a small minority group targeted by white supremacists. Should we get special treatment? Is our history worthy of study? #BlackStudies #JewishStudies

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/o... Yes, but some of us are already affected by what the Mean Guys do. Should we do nothing while they take our severely disabled daughter’s Medicaid away? ♿️Wait until Dems have the House in 2027?

Trump himself is the big distraction. The real story is the Republican Party. They refused to impeach him, they nominated him for prez, and now 219 congressmen and 53 senators are letting Trump do whatever he wants.

I would love to see Trump and Musk played by two ten-year olds on SNL.

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/u... No mention of Bongino posting things like “libs are the biggest pussies I’ve ever seen.” The worst normalization of vulgarity I’ve ever seen. Shame on you #NYT @NewYorkTimes.

Everybody blamed the Democrats’ big election loss on “wokeness” & elitism. Not on the GOP’s massive lying. Their lies are how we got here.

Remember when Republicans used to make fun of us for saying our democracy was in danger?

This is your reminder to download your kindle books onto a device where you can keep hold of them if Amazon decides to remove them. They'll be removing that option on the 26th of this month. 5 days. So back up your library!

Can we refer to them as The Mean Guys? Calling them King Trump or President Musk is too dignified. #TheMeanGuys. #TMG

I’m worried about EVERYONE. What will happen to the 1,000s of people Trump is firing? Suddenly no income. Remember the 1,000s of people in California who lost their homes and businesses in huge wildfires? How are they? These stories haven’t ended. We need more.

Silly question but… what are the 1,000s of people Musk fired going to do? Will they be able to find jobs? Also, how are the 1,000s of people who lost their homes, cars, livelihoods in California’s fires doing?

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Is Congress in session? Where are you? You have failed us. Thugs have broken in & smashed it all to smithereens. They helped themselves to our data. They’ve smeared excrement all over our government. The whole world hates us. I don’t blame them. I hate us too.
