How many trans athletes does Trump's Order actually affect? Based on available data, along with Teen Vogue’s own reporting, Trump’s Order likely targets fewer than 160 of the more than 8 million student athletes in the country. ⤵️

All my friends hate the New York times

I haven't wept like I wept today in a long time. Thank you Omar El Akkad for your amazing clarity and honesty and openness, and thank you @davidnaimon.bsky.social for the care, attention, and preparation you brought to this extraordinary encounter. Listen to the end.

Anne Carson .......

Including a rich discussion of the massive campaign to get the prestigious Giller Prize to cut its ties with genocide profiteers

Philip Guston: “I go to the studio every day because one day I may go and the Angel will be there. What if I don't go and the Angel comes?”

Oh this is good

If you're shocked Trump is openly promoting white supremacy while violently deporting brown immigrants, then remember this isn't new. After WW2 the US Govt welcomed Nazis as refugees while blocking Black & brown immigrants. This is what "MAGA" has always meant. www.qasimrashid.com/p/why-februa...

But not lift a finger to an ongoing coup d’etat by billionaires! She called the National Guard on striking workers! Almost as though the Democrats are good with what’s going on with DOGE🤔

This morning, Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier was released after 49 years of wrongful incarceration.

Fascinating profile of a park ranger in San Francisco who works with unhoused residents and has adopted the novel tactic of treating them like human beings, building relationships, and helping them access resources on their own timeline.

In January, we launched a petition demanding the U.S. State Department intervene for the release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza. actionnetwork.org/forms/tell-t...

Have a lot of thoughts about this, but I will begin w one: having major, well funded conservative Jewish organizations solely devoted to defending Israel’s war crimes in the name of “stopping antisemitism” does not help, does not help one bit

For anybody making wildly broad misstatements about "The Left" not taking Trump seriously early on, here's a "leftist" drawing of Trump from July 2016.

Okay I’m going to make a list of accounts who lost their tents or had them damaged in the wind/ rain in Gaza- so if you are looking to help with that crisis here’s a list!

Even after an Oscar nomination, there is only one theater in the U.S. where you can see No Other Land right now. My piece on how it couldn’t be a more timely movie and what it says about power — and the power of community: www.huffpost.com/entry/no-oth...

ICE just told staff that they are not allowed to take up the Trump admin's resignation offer, despite that "employees may have responded to the initial email email expressing interest," per ICE memo leaked to me.

It’s a big deal and more law- abiding countries SHOULD join #TheHagueGroup

This film took MASSIVE courage to make "The two-hour film, made over the course of six years" The people who made it knew that they would likely be charged with new crimes for having contraband cell phones Praying for them 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ja...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Jehad. Jehad was studying English language and translation before the war at Al-Azhar University, he miraculously managed to graduate this year. But he is also now responsible for the 20 people in his family including 10 nephews and nieces.

The red flag for me in this abomination is the section below calling for universities to snitch on non-US students and faculty who have engaged in protest of Israeli genocide so that they can be deported. These institutions will do so with relish. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

The West forgave Germany for carrying out the Holocaust, but it never forgave the USSR for defeating the Germans and stopping it.

If I were a liberal attacking the left right now, I might consider whether or not I was engaging in a diet fascism, if I was doing the devil's work.

It's not a genocide if a self-declared Jewish states does it, and it's not Nazism is a self-declared Jewish state defends it. That's where the 'West' is currently.

The fact that I keep missing 90% of news about Palestine or Palestinians because I'm not on Twitter anymore is really fucked up

FWIW, last week I wanted to write a little something honoring an excellent exhibition curated in the fall by one of the students central to these protests at NYU, and featuring the work of her colleagues

Elon Musk, speaking at an AfD rally in Germany: I can’t hear you so hopefully this is coming through. Please confirm you can hear me okay. I don’t know raise your hand or something.

Comrade card for 1/24/2025. Happy Friday, friends.

And this will be the Biden administration’s legacy. Anthony Blinken will never play the guitar again without invoking the US empire’s role in the genocide of Palestinians.

I don’t have mine saved but someone sent me an embroidery of it — which was pretty wild!
