Federal workers are already posting direct accounts of their firings on TikTok, garnering viral sympathy and support. Why Dems are not taking advantage of these already public, very personal profiles is indeed baffling, see this thread: www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YVxTUq/

I keep saying this but... if you live in a big city and want to fight fascism, questioning what your mayor and cops are doing to unhoused people is an excellent start. Criminalizing people who have nothing is how nice urban liberals do fascism.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

The fact that a special ed program funding was canceled, and special ed teachers were fired, and probably because of the word "transition" which is not even in the context of gender issues but of helping kids with special needs transition to the grown up world after school, should enrage everyone.

the only time i can recall being language policed is when i wrote a column trying to explain how material changes in the latino community might do more to explain the trump shift than “latinx” and andrew sullivan screamed at me for not disavowing “latinx”

Since the next step for people like Trump is to blame the consequences of his actions on others, the most effective response to people like this is "It sounds like they lied to you." You can't turn these people into overnight liberals; you can shake their trust in the people who deceived them.

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this. Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

been a kinda obnoxious amount of me this week, I know, but I've got one more out today, and I hope you'll check it out an essay about seeing Ross Gay read, which reminded me of a The National concert, it's about art & sports & praise & beauty & JOY.
