This "immediate cancellation" violates the law. If the Admin thinks Columbia has violated Title VI by being deliberately indifferent to antisemitic harassment, it has to give Columbia a chance for a hearing first, make findings on the record, & wait 30 days. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03...

Your MAGA-run government is more concerned about ‘decorum’ than they are people losing access to Medicaid and Social Security and the demise of our democracy. And it’s always the Black and brown folks who are silenced and punished for speaking truth to power.

Wondering about the legality of DJT's EOs purporting to read Title IX to require a variety of anti-trans measures? I have updated my forthcoming Article to address: ssrn.com/abstract=494... Topline summary: the text of TIX neither authorizes nor permits such mandatory anti-trans measures.

This is unconstitutional. A violation of the First Amendment. A violation of federalism and the separation of powers. It’s unconstitutionally vague. It’s unlawful. It’s unlawful. It’s unlawful.

It's economically destructive and geopolitical insanity and bad for the United States in every possible way, but more than that, torching our relationships with our closest friends and literal neighbors in Canada and Mexico is a profoundly immoral thing to do, and should be denounced as such.

The denial and destruction of basic needs — water, food, homes, hospitals — is state violence. Palestinians deserve to live free from siege. That means pushing back on the U.S. government which backs this apartheid. Give: gazafunds.com and linktr.ee/thesameerproject Act: uscpr.org/take-action/

Thank you to Gov Shapiro for standing up for freedom & lower-case "d" democratic values - core tenets of what the US has embraced throughout its history. Thank you for standing with the people of Ukraine & with Ukrainian-Americans, whose lives have been destroyed by Vladimir Putin.

This is the most telling photo I’ve seen — Trump/Vance berating a wartime leader fighting against invasion directly in front of a bust of Churchill. It looks like Churchill is seated in the back, watching Trump kill the very US-Europe alliance that Churchill helped forge. THREAD

New, from @pamherd.bsky.social & I: Trump said "Social Security would not be touched." Now the Trump admin proposes a 50% cut in Social Security employees. This will absolutely gut SSA's ability to serve everyone who depends on the program - which is everyone. 🧵 open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

The obvious point here is that when Dems hold positions of power they don't actually force people to say things like "pregnant people." Some people were asked to used their pro-nouns once on a zoom call and mistook it for oppression.
