A district court in Boston will hear argument on Wednesday in AAUP v. Rubio, a challenge to the arrests, detentions, and threatened deportations of students for their pro-Palestine advocacy. A hugely important First Amendment case. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ok but it kind of rocks how obviously unfit the No. 1 anti-dei guy is. He could have been mediocre in a hard-to-pin-down way. It's pretty satisfying that he's a full-force dunce who can't stop eating tape.

A lot of important arguments to be made here about rights and so forth, but also what about, why is he NOT coming back when you deported him by accident, according to you! There's no angle where this doesn't make the Trump admin look like childish pissants.

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered. As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

Loved this interview with my former colleague, Erie Meyer, the soul of the CFPB Q: What book most shaped your conception of the future? A: I would say Shirley Chisholm’s autobiography “Unbought and Unbossed"...She has a saying, “I don’t measure America by its achievement but by its potential.”

Chris Rufo sounds very dumb on this Daily episode. If this is an argument against the President of Princeton the other day, lol, how embarrassing for him.

Probably a waste of time to think about, but I don't think he would have used the word "barbarians." Thugs, losers, rapists and [crime type] and [crime type], are all more his speed. He has writers on staff, fine. But you kind of want some assurance that he at least knows that this is his policy.

This is a thousand times more of a threat than the economic devastation we’re all reasonably enough distraught about out. The constitutional order as we’ve known it is hanging by a fraying thread that trump is holding a straight razor to with no one even reaching to withdraw his hand.

It's a careful, well-reasoned opinion that rightly describes the exclusion of AP as retaliatory, viewpoint-based, and unconstitutional. And it reaffirms that viewpoint discrimination is off-limits even in nonpublic forums. An important opinion, especially right now.

This is the first essay in @knightcolumbia.org's series on "AI and Democratic Freedoms." We'll be hosting a symposium on this topic on Thursday and Friday--in collaboration with @sethlazar.org--and publishing other essays in the series over the next few weeks. knightcolumbia.org/content/what...

It's exciting but almost surreal to let oneself dare to dream about the rebuilding and new building that might come out of all this. But a deranged, self-inflicted stock market crash and a nationwide mass protest can help get you there.

I joined thousands of NYers to stand up against Trump & Musk’s efforts to demolish our government for their own gain. Health care, jobs, & essential programs are all under attack. Every institution, corporation, & American must stand up NOW to protect our democracy. #HandsOff

A mother and her three children were snatched by ICE from a dairy farm in Sackets Harbor, a rural town in northern New York. But the location is no coincidence—Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, LIVES THERE. He allowed his own neighbors, including a third grader, to be jailed. Deplorable.

Today @debtcollective.bsky.social joined hundreds on Long Island at one of over 1k #handsoff protests happening across the county. Who wins under this budget? Billionaires. Corporations. War profiteers. They want us to lose, by driving us deeper into debt.

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
