DoE functions proposed to move to SBA and they’ve announced a 40% reduction of force. Even the programs they espouse to maintain will face drastic impacts or outright failure. We ready to take to the streets yet? #DoE #StudentAid

The @democrats.org continue to lose trust amongst constituents. And if they are indeed taking decisive action, they must be hitting every media and social network at a higher frequency to demonstrate it to the public.

Brilliant questioning to make representatives feel weak and powerless. We need more of this and in every state.

Another Nazi salute from the Trump surrogacy.

We absolutely deserve better. An attack on any union member is an attack on all organized labor. O’Brien has and continues to be shameful leadership and we need to rise up to vote him out as soon as possible.

While there are many lighthearted jokes about this situation, it is a serious action against art, our emotional capacity, one of the defining characteristics of humanity. This, like most actions since January 20, is fascism.

“The AfD promises its voters that it will see the system burn. What it doesn't say is that it will hit its own voters first - their jobs, their savings, their livelihoods. The USA under Trump shows us every day: whoever wants to see the system burn will end up in flames themselves.”

I am nonbinary. The gender that no longer officially exists in the United States. I was offered the chance to change my gender designation to "X" on my passport and driver's license in 2023. I decided not to and here's why.

Where you at @governorwalz.mn.gov, Commissioner Jett, and Commissioner Olson? Will you reaffirm the rights of our Trans students and colleagues?

I cannot stress enough how important private funding will be for underrepresented (UR) scientists for the next 4 years. NSF and NIH fund summer research opportunities for UR undergrad students in STEM, mentoring programs starting in high school, funds for UR PhD students, & more.

Undoubtedly one of my most difficult days in higher education. Hope you all find some rest from your worries tonight. Tomorrow will not likely be any better. #highereducation #grants #highered #trio #nsf #nasa

ICE is raiding schools; Navajo are threatened with “deportation,” in the first hints of an ethnic cleansing campaign; the federal government is resegregating with snitch tags on everyone who resists; the NIH is frozen; private institutions are acquiescing rapidly… It is day 4.

Elon Musk’s “heartfelt” gesture at Trump’s rally sure warmed the hearts of neo-Nazis everywhere. While allies scramble to call it an awkward salute, far-right groups gleefully embrace it. Funny how “mistakes” like this always seem to happen at MAGA events. Actions speak louder, Elon.

Describing the fire damage in CA as a “war zone.” Decimating? Yes. Horrible? Yes. War zone? No. War zones are caused by decisive human actions.

I've been thinking a lot about Amy Coney Barrett's question yesterday "is there a history of de jure discrimination against trans people?" I think the unspoken part of her question was "is there really a history of discrimination against trans people since trans people are a new thing"

Nearly every single Republican voted against releasing the Matt Gaetz ethics report. Remember this the next time they pretend to care about protecting minors.

I remember protesting as an undergraduate music ed major. Now, as a proud 8+ year union member, I celebrate the ability of public employees in WI to organize again.

There are insurmountable legal challenges and shameful attempts to erase trans lives from visibility. Chase’s work is extraordinary, and there is much to do outside of the SC chambers as well.

Some Democrats think the party has gone too far left and needs to readjust towards the “center.” Rubbish. Where’s the center between democracy and oligarchy, and why would Democrats want to be there?

Big Pharma is the only reason anyone still dies from HIV: “We have the means to eradicate AIDS as a threat to human life. Greed is keeping this from happening.”

Our failure to act on behalf of Palestine will tarnish this entire era of American history. It is Shameful. End this genocide.

Would love to hear from a Republican worried about food or housing costs how exactly deporting 10 million people who grow and pick our food and build our houses is going to lower food or housing costs.
