That part!

We don’t elect kings! Never have, never will!

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

"When we were writing this book, we imagined it as a resource for students and we also imagined it as a resource for faculty, for administrators, for staff members. And we do think that it aligns with the mission of providing culturally relevant support" - Dr. Yvette Martínez-Vu

New blog post about keeping HSI work alive in anti-DEI climate.

An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government. DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

I need Americans to hate this administration the way Kendrick hates Drake so they can actually stand a chance of surviving

I’m old enough to remember when we had 3 branches of government. Forget checks and balances. I guess we are a Muskocracy now.

Our academic freedom is at risk! Scholars, scientist, researchers, professors, we should all be concerned!

On Wednesday, Trump had this to say to international students who participated in pro-Palestinian protests: "Come 2025, we will find you, and we will deport you." chroni.cl/4gANPEl

New blog post about keeping your HSI work alive in this anti-DEI climate www.ginaanngarcia.com/post/keeping...

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence. He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials. It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Watching these red states attack federal funding—apparently not realizing that most of their states are broke and would completely collapse without it—will always be hilarious to me. “Give it all back to the states!” Sit down, Cletus. Your state can’t buy sandwiches for kids.

Thanks. This clarifies nothing.

This is how a dictator acts.   Sending 30K migrants to Guantanamo—a place w/ repeated human rights violations—is an attempt to evade our legal system & act in the shadows hundreds of miles away.   REMINDER—the U.S. affords weaker due process/legal rights for people detained there.

We’re back to talking about all things HSIs, Hispanic Serving Institutions. And we’re kicking it off with liberatory outcomes!

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

✅ DEI Employer of the Day™ Mastercard "As with our commitment to decency, diversity, equity and inclusion [DEI] are embedded in our DNA through the Mastercard Way." "We do this not only because it has a meaningful impact on our business, but because it is the right thing to do." Priceless.

They f*cked around and found out.

We’re back with season 6 of @quepasahsis.bsky.social and we kicked it off with a conversation about liberatory outcomes!

Let's break down Trump's executive orders focused on destroying our environment. (1/9)

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration. Big mistake. Huge.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

This is a slap in the face to American women. Pete Hegseth has a track record of disrespecting women service members, and multiple credible sexual assault allegations. Our troops deserve better.

We all know what’s coming!

Remember this day. The last full day with a Democratic President. We don’t know when or if we’ll ever live another day like this. 🥺

One thing I have learned as research faculty: you can spend the year writing grants or writing a book, but you can’t do both. Last year I chose (3 unfunded) grants. That was a waste. This year I chose the book. I don’t regret it. Submitting the manuscript this week! 😉

Three humanitarian missions to deliver food and water to northern Gaza were rejected by Israeli authorities on Tuesday, with UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric stating they remain "overwhelmingly denied." 🔴 LIVE updates:
