While we’re on the topic of COVID, trauma, and schools… Researchers found a major source of pandemic-related trauma for college students was returning to in-person schooling before it was safe. It was an institutional betrayal. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Trump is willing to pour millions of dollars into this military parade, but isn’t willing to invest that money into public education, healthcare, or public services that working families depend on. www.cbsnews.com/news/army-pl...

I’m 46 but I had my shingrix shot because I’m worried about what RFK jr is going to do with vaccines. Shingles is a preventable illness like measles. We are so lucky to have these vaccines! I for one will not forgo them because the guy who runs government health services has a 🐛 in his 🧠

When confronted by Trump, so many people and organizations look to polling for guidance, get paralyzed, talk in circles or just fold like a cheap suit. Disabled American Veterans, on the other hand, has taken the right approach. This is how you respond.

NPR receives $2-3M/year in federal funding. PBS receives $80-85M. The military-themed birthday parade Trump is throwing himself will cost taxpayers $92M. We’re told cutting news and kids programming to fund an authoritarian birthday bash somehow “makes America great again”

In Reagan's 1980s, America had just 35 undocumented immigrants behind bars. Today, nearly 48,000 sit in squalid detention, many thrown there by a mask-wearing U.S. secret police that smashes homes, cars and violates human rights It's time to abolish ICE. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

We fought for our independence. We fought to end slavery. We fought against the rise of fascism in Europe. We fought for civil rights. I refuse to believe we have lost the will to fight for what is right and just.

In less than 100 days the FCC has been converted from a media and telecom watchdog into a bizarre, rights-trampling grievance machine built for one purpose: to coddle and protect the ego of President Donald J. Trump. Read more from @karlbode.com: www.theverge.com/tech/656653/...

NEW: The Trump administration deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen on Friday. Hours later, a conservative judge who tried to intervene warned of his "strong suspicion" that the administration "just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process."

Felon47 breaks ALL the rules to enrich himself. What’s the worst among F47’s transgressions? Any ONE should result in impeachment/ conviction. Pardoning a felon/major donor? Promoting Teslas on the WH lawn? Holding a private dinner for speculators who purchase Trump cryptocurrency? So many more!

Trump’s underlings are arresting local judges as part of what Tammy Baldwin calls the “deeply concerning pattern of this president’s lawless behavior and undermining courts and Congress’s checks on his power.” Baldwin isn’t alone. The arrest of Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan has drawn a loud outcry.

Imagine being this bitter, this unhinged—and still thinking you’re the victim. Trump can’t even say Happy Easter without turning it into a rage-filled tantrum.

I'll be talking about being in El Salvador while Marco Rubio was signing the concentration camp agreement, and how Viet Nam, the USA, Palestine and El Salvador can be connected through capacious grief and expansive solidarity, and how writing can be a way of fighting, of mourning, and of grieving.
