The entire business model of American R1 universities is not viable without restoration of federal funding, & every individual institution pretending it can solve this problem alone is also not viable. University presidents need to be speaking out, collectively & loudly about this, in DC, right now.

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

If you care about abortion access, voting rights, and the future of Wisconsin, you should care about the WI Supreme Court election! We can’t let conservatives who want to ban abortion and roll back our rights take control of the court. 🗳️ Vote for Judge Susan Crawford on April 1.

It's National Caregivers Day and I know all too well what caregiving entails. I was simultaneously the caregiver for my husband, Brian (#ALS) and my 9yo son, Eli (#DIPG). If you know a caregiver: call them and remind them how important they are. It makes all the difference.

Such hostile nonsense from Americans in power just now. I wish we would listen to people who have suffered for reporting the truth, like Stanislav Aseyev, combat veteran and survivor of a Russian torture camp.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Friends don’t wait for a great leader in order to not be a fascist follower! You can say “that’s not right” to your friends and neighbors & not comfort fascists with bromides. Read abolitionist literature to learn how to organize against hate & you might find you’re the leader you’re looking for!

We recruit individuals and we retain families. Cutting a major source of military spouse employment and injecting politics into the senior ranks is going to lead to a huge loss of mid-grade talent. This is all absolutely devastating to national security. www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

Pitting 1619 vs 1776 is a childish game. The real fight is complete, intersectional, contextualized history over fictional, heroic nonsense. But Trump’s real gambit is for the narrative of power. #publichistory
