A whole lot of people who've spent years calling the younger generation "snowflakes" now apparently want armed guys in riot gear to protect them from teenagers sitting peacefully on the ground

Reminder Israel is still killing Palestinians in Gaza right now. Over 34,000 have died. That's why college students are protesting. They want to end the war.

I condemn any potential police action on Columbia University's campus. As an educator who personally experienced the over policing of our schools, this is personal to me. We must resist right-wing demagoguery and stop suppressing peaceful protest if we are to keep students safe.

It is so plainly absurd to use fringe lunatics outside a college campus as an excuse to dodge accountability for a US-funded war in Gaza, where 13,000 children have been killed by Israeli forces. But here we are.

"Disturbing reports continue to emerge about mass graves in Gaza in which Palestinian victims were reportedly stripped naked with their hands tied, prompting renewed concerns about possible war crimes." --A new UN statement

“We just want to give him a dignified burial”. Overwhelming grief as a mass grave containing over 300 bodies has been uncovered at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza. @nadaabashir reports

UN human rights chief 'horrified' over Gaza mass graves report

Mifepristone has 5 deaths per million users. Viagra has 49 deaths per million users. It's not about drug safety. It's about controlling women.

.@MichaelSteele's message for @brotherjones_: "You stand for something bigger than what happened today on so many levels... Your generation will mark this moment and every last one of those bastards who voted you out will rue that moment."

Maybe a judge somewhere thinks your chemotherapy isn’t right for you.

BREAKING: The Tennessee GOP's expulsion vote is already backfiring big time, as a majority of Nashville’s city council members say they’ll vote to send @brotherjones_ back to the state Capitol as soon as Monday. 👏👏 #TennesseeThree

Where is Gov. Bill Lee? Where is Sen. Marsha Blackburn? Where is Sen. Bill Hagerty? Are they going to lead or continue to cower and remain silent on the miscarriage of justice by their party in the Tennessee General Assembly. I think we know the answer.

Take a moment and watch and savor this entire thing. I have chills and am speechless.

So much love for this amazing young man, @Justinjpearson !

Wow: Tennessee state Rep. Justin Jones, one of the Dems that the GOP is trying to expel from state legislature to protesting gun violence, calls out his colleagues on the floor ‘For years, one of your colleagues, an admitted child molester, sat in this chamber – no expulsion’

“Well, I think it's pretty clear. I'm a 60-year-old white woman and they are two young Black men." - Rep. Gloria Johnson on why she was not expelled.

Don’t walk into the trap. This is about a nation where guns are so easily accessible and so poorly regulated that we’ve had more mass shootings in 2023 than we’ve had total days. It’s still the guns, and it has been since Sandy Hook.

It’s not the drag queens. It’s not the pot, not the porn, not the trans kids, not the video games, it’s not the locks on the doors, and it sure as shit ain’t the books about Rosa Parks. You wanna PROTECT OUR KIDS? Then do something about the motherfucking guns.

A Republican in Michigan who opposed women having the right to vote because he said they don’t have the “characteristics” to govern just lost to a woman. In case you were wondering how the “red wave” is going.
