Pour-Me-Another Pete decrees that the U.S. Navy's Harvey Milk be renamed for LGBTQ heroes Roy Cohn and J. Edgar Hoover. Waves of nausea as he sinks the Defense Dept. to ever lower levels.

I wondered how my employer for 21 years, Arizona State University, was responding to MAGA bullying. Here's what I wrote. We need to put pressure where we live, where we worked and studied. www.jeffmcmahonprojects.net/post/how-is-...

Solnit reminds us that the illegal Trump/MAGA actions are a lot like...MS 13 and other narcotraficante gangs. Fear, intimidation, constant threat. Terrorism. www.meditationsinanemergency.com/when-hope-an...

Kirsten Gillibrand trumps all the wonderful things she's doing for us. Nary a mention of her shameful vote in favor of budget "resolution" She votes against her Dem colleagues, and is the head of the DCCC! Wants us to send her $. Don't. Send it to candidates directly. Like to AOC.

Print these on card stock and hand them out if you live/work in an area where migrants might be harassed by ICE. Spanish on one side informing them of their rights, and English on reverse to show agents (or those posing as such). www.ilrc.org/sites/defaul...

Columbia University allowing ICE on campus to arrest Palestinian students holding green cards, while accommodating MAGA focus exclusively on antisemitism, Write Columbia President [email protected] Her pathetic response to funding cuts president.columbia.edu

New Yorkers, please call/write Gov. Hochul to protest her meddling in CUNY/Hunter search for Palestinian Studies professor. Objecting to terms in the job listing such as "zionism" "colonialism" "genocide" is a MAGA/Trump strategy she should not be imposing on CUNY.

brilliant and uncomfortably engaging

This is happening later today. Might be good for legal strategizing www.youtube.com/live/xycwn8Z...

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...? Erasure of history is the DOGE/MAGA method of avoiding it, and the present and the future.

My NY Rep, Dan Goldman, hosted an online town hall last night focused on pushing back on unelectedElon and MagaTrump. Some helpful answers. www.youtube.com/@RepDanGoldman

from the NY Times this morning, referring to DT attack on DEI: "And on Wednesday, Jamie Dimon, the chief executive of JPMorgan Chase, said the company would not back away from its D.E.I efforts in response to activists. “Bring them on,” he said in an interview with CNBC."

I lasted for 40 minutes watching Chorus' Tuesday 1/14 panel with the DNC Chair candidates. A great idea that fell apart when one of the moderators, after saying everyone should limit to 90 seconds, fixated on one candidate and engaged in endless back-and-forth with her. Chat complaints ignored.
