Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.

Two recounts confirmed that North Carolina voters elected me to keep my seat in 2024. Now, over 65,000 legal votes are at risk of being thrown out - but I've spent my career fighting for the right to vote, and I won't give up. Join me at Riggsforourcourts.com

i do not think the mainstream press is equipped or capable of covering ideological white nationalists and eugenicists as such, or even capable of noting that this is what they are. it is related to the wide belief that racism is simply a matter of manners.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Trump claims so many countries called him kissing his ass that he will just forget the big tariff rollout that was suppose to transform and rejuvenate our country by bringing manufacturing jobs back. He claims people kissed his ass, so forget all that.

🧵I worked at a garment factory in the 90s. It was called Garan. We made Garananimals clothing for children. The plant moved to Mexico in the early 2000s. 99% of the workers were women. The women who climbed up on top of tables and cut patterns out all day made $6.40/hour. The girls turning shirts

Reactionary revanchism begets revolutionary revanchism. This is not going to end well for either the people under the boot…or the people wearing the boots.

For those of you keeping score: When President Biden left office, the stock market had risen to a healthy 43,487. Since trump launched his stupid trade war, the stock market has plummeted to 37,958, just 77 days later. He is a fucking IDIOT. Any questions?

Dictators of all stripes hate solidarity. They’d prefer that we cower alone. They want us to feel powerless. This is why I encourage you to participate in the peaceful demonstrations planned for today across America. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/april-5-hands-off-our-healthcare

Today’s GOP echoes the McCarthy era, where fear and conformity stifled dissent. As Edward R. Murrow said, “We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home.” Embrace liberal ideas to resist this tyranny. #blueresistance

The Sopranos is probably the Rosetta Stone of modern American reaction: it consists of people who bemoan the loss of an imagined past they mainly got from movies, claim victimization based on identity but hate when others do it, and view the people who build the society they prey on as suckers.

A thing I find interesting is the Simpsons was one of the first mainstream pieces of entertainment to successfully land the notion that those in charge (teachers, bosses, cops, business, politics) were incompetent. But it’s now been a generation~ where there’s never been competency…
