Also must point out that they’re simply inventing (& hoping you won’t notice) that Khalil or any other protester was “provid[ing] material support” to any banned foreign group. Material support is a tangible thing. ADL has been making this slanderous accusation w/o any evidence since protests began

Look, folks, this is it. The entire ballgame. Either we're a Republic of laws & the Constitution, or we have a dictator. This is fascism, & the impeachment vote should be happening today. Every single university president in the country should be out, in front of microphones, condemning this.

Coming to stores on Wednesday is a story I’ve been waiting to tell you for almost an entire year. It’s the story of a very dirty war.

Idk which MTG players need to hear this today, but you play one of the most complicated games in the world... FOR FUN. Odds are, you're pretty darn smart. Maybe even smarter than you think you are. You can strategize under pressure, too. I think you're capable of doing some incredible things.

The US Attorney in Washington DC is investigating Georgetown Law School, demanding that "if DEI is found in your courses or teaching in anyway [sic]," the law school should "move swiftly to remove it" Federal prosecutors don’t control the classroom. This is a dark abdication of the First Amendment.

In the past several weeks, the U.S. leadership has demonstrated explicit hostility towards Ukraine and aligned its rhetoric and policy with Russia. It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

Trump’s ugly twists, deranged turns, and flagrant lies are damaging the United States and its allies. The best among us are now the victims of Trump’s betrayals and vengeance — struggling to survive. Trump’s verbal attacks on Ukraine are comparable to “Russian aggression.” Utterly despicable.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

If you’ve been waiting for a five-alarm fire to raise your voice: it's here. Last night, the president signed executive order giving himself carte blanche to decide what actions are or are not legal. This is the story to focus on. Protest this executive order like democracy depends on it.

@raskin.house.gov: "The most glaring conflict of interest of all is that Elon is a government contractor himself, who collects billions of dollars from the US government... And like all authoritarian and fascist movements around the world in history, corruption is at the heart of it."
