The horrific details of Mahmoud Khalil’s detainment www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Europe, do NOT send eggs. Make MAGA see that slashing science and shitting all over US allies has a cost.

Hitler ended democracy in Germany in 53 days. Today is the 53rd day of the Trump presidency, and the White House has announced that it does not believe a federal district court judge can issue an injunction against the White House. It can. The Constitution says so. This is a constitutional crisis.

At least Schumer, anyhow.

The incomparable @silkyweineck.bsky.social lays bare how the UM admin is shilling for MAGA.

HAPPENING NOW: Police arrested hundreds of protestors including Jewish elders, descendants of Holocaust survivors, and students, dragging them out of a sit-in at Trump Tower by their arms and legs. Jews say: Free Mahmoud, Free Palestine!

"I can see why the Trump administration is going after Columbia, rather than, say, Stanford, where swastikas were drawn on campus whiteboards, or the University of Alabama, which recently decided to name a building after a former KKK member."

This isn't going to get the attention of Columbia, but it's at least as bad: the University of Maine is having its funding cut off because the governor of Maine dared to challenge Trump.

The Anti Defamation League is so right, if there’s one thing that makes me feel safe as a Jew, it’s people with unpopular political opinions getting abducted by the government

First, they came for the Palestinian protestors… apnews.com/article/colu...

I have been saying this for a while now. The Cult of Trump & its political expression (including anti-science) echoes the Cult of Mao. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/06/b...

International traveler, returning home while infected. I give us two weeks before it explodes nationwide.

👇🎯 The public isn't going to understand this, unless the presidents of R1 universities around the country <loudly> & <collectively> get out into the public square & start explaining this & calling out the existential threat to the entire 🇺🇸 university system. The silence is deafening right now.

May I suggest that the Democratic Party look to Matt Drudge for messaging advice.

This isn’t about efficiency. It’s about destroying the US so the oligarchs can buy it up cheap.

In light of the news about Columbia, I want to reiterate a point below by me and Levitsky: universities, collectively, are among the most economically powerful and geographically thick sectors in the US. If they stood up together in opposition to this tyranny, they would be incredibly powerful.

Repeat after me: Vaccines do not cause autism Measles can cause brain damage.

That’s right. 🇺🇦

Part of how we're rushing toward the abyss - the lawbreaking is so widespread that they may be unwilling to relinquish power voluntarily for fear of (rightfully) facing prosecution

My new article on Trump's treasonous meeting with Zelensky: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-is-n...

It's very reasonable for normal, upstanding Americans to make clear that they won't stand for unAmerican trash like JD Vance. Everyone has their limits.

The free world stands with Zelenskyy. MAGA stands with General Bone Spurs.

Trump is Putin’s sock puppet.

Today, Trump & Vance cast a shit stain on the USA while doing the bidding of a "KGB war criminal" who has some kind of magical spell over the pair of them

Elon Musk on Wednesday acknowledged that the U.S. DOGE Service “accidentally canceled” efforts by the USAID to prevent the spread of Ebola — but Musk insisted that the initiative was quickly restored USAID officials said that Musk was wrong: USAID’s Ebola prevention efforts have been largely halted

Parents who don’t vaccinate kids—this is what awaits your innocent child…”Some patients’ respiratory issues progressed to bacterial pneumonia…Others had to be intubated…”

@sulliview.bsky.social: "What is clear is that Bezos no longer wants to own an independent news organization. He wants a megaphone and a political tool that will benefit his own commercial interests." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

There is no limit to Trump’s psychosis. My heart aches for all the people that were conned into voting for him because they believed that he would bring “peace” to Gaza. This is what he meant by “peace.”

Never forget that Musk fired the head of the FAA for fining SpaceX and then cut its workforce to help pay for his tax cuts.

🎯And a central thing Trump does with his speech acts is #gaslight -- impose false reality on others, attacking their ability to respond rationally. My election post-mortem cited 6 key themes: www.salon.com/2024/11/09/s...

Worst. Episode. EVER.

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

UPDATE: The charges against her have been dropped “in the interest of justice” (she bit one of the brownshirts that assaulted her) and the private security firm has lost their license to operate. I hope she sues them into oblivion.

The Cascading Damage from the NIH Freeze: “In six months, you see the firings and lab closings. In 2 to 3 years, you see a drop in PhDs. In five years, you see the noticeable loss in innovation and new patents. In ten years, you see the mortality rate go up.” open.substack.com/pub/davidpep...

who had Active Measles Case in Hometown on their bingo card? i sure didn't

If she asks, please tell my wife that I contracted measles at Texas State University and NOT at Twin Peaks.

Elsewhere: “the TDSHS said a person from the outbreak area…visited locations in San Marcos and San Antonio the weekend of February 14 to February 16 while he or she was contagious.The exposure sites include two universities…tourist attractions… a local restaurant, and a large travel plaza...”

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.

A picture worth a thousand words.

Long live The Resistance

Good.
