Realization…

Mood…now…

Can confirm: Just spoke to him, and Barber and two others were, in fact, arrested. Story coming.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

Very fine people. Trump pardoned her.

Boosting again. For obvious reasons.

Too late to cash in on Wicked? An old take on Oz.

Happy Friday.

Life now feels like this…

Not the superhero we want…But it’s the best we can do these days…

How is it possible U.S. citizens are being held as illegal aliens in America even after they produce their birth certificate? This is intolerable. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO PUT IT.

This picture may haunt me to the end of my days. It is an ICE agent taking an axe to the car window of an immigrant in New Bedford, MA. Not far from where I sit now. An immigrant with no criminal record was abducted by this smiling man. An axe taken to a car window and to our democracy. 1/ #MomSky

Cleaning my studio to take a break from a deadline. I think I’m 90% dust. And I found that M&M from 2015.

Boston area folks: just learned about this ICE Hotline to report ICE activity in the area: 🚨617-370-5023 - 5am-9pm every day - English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Haitian Creole, more soon - operated by Luce Mass. more info: www.lucemass.org

I was scheduled to give a talk on Palestine at a student conference at @notredame.bsky.social. The University rescinded my talk a week in advance citing an extremely flimsy excuse. It is truly disgusting. Attached is the letter I received and my reply, link below...

CEOs upset about Trump’s tariffs sound like mob bosses shouting “I thought we had a deal!” at the Joker.

When you wish upon a job…

Nothing new…

We’ve got a lot to build in this country, and we need a lot more builders. So we’ll cover training costs and make it easier to work anywhere in Canada. It’s going to be a great time to be in the skilled trades.

Murphy: "It's not designed as economic policy. It's designed as political policy. Because Trump gets really excited when people have to come to him, petition the king for relief. That's what he's doing with law firms, doing with universities. That may be what he's doing with businesses."

This is the most anti-knowledge administration the U.S. has ever had.

CBC reporting CPC staffers are screening reporter questions before they choose who asks Poilievre. He already won't take follow ups, won't let the travel with the campaign, now they selecting the topics journalists can ask. This is outrageous, further proof his ideas can't take scrutiny. #cdnpoli

democracy or kitchen-table issues? oppose Trump's attacks on rule of law or address people's material needs? not either/or! it's both! I agree with @gregsargent.bsky.social: Obama speaking up matters, and his suggestion on treating abuses of power and economic problems as one story is a good one.
