So Trump is ordering the FBI and the National Guard to DC. May I remind you the same guy refused to do anything on January 6th 2021 against the violent Capitol Hill insurrectionists even when Congressmen from his own party were begging him?

I don’t think they’re really “protesting” here. I’d call it engaging in direct action; which is a lot more powerful…

During the Cold War, US allies used to deny the disappearances — the uncertainty was part of the terror. Now they just straight-up say they have a right to kidnap innocent people.

I toured the CECOT, El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center. President Trump and I have a clear message to criminal illegal aliens: LEAVE NOW.   If you do not leave, we will hunt you down, arrest you, and you could end up in this El Salvadorian prison.

It's simply untrue that, compared to 2017 mass resistance, we are seeing mass quiescence. February '25 saw 2x as many protests as Feb '17. This data doesn't include Bernie 'fighting oligarchy' huge rallies, or the disruptions at GOP & Dem town halls. But there are differences 1/3

"As anthropologists, we are witnessing a doubling down on the discipline’s classical roots where a Palestinian woman can only occupy the savage slot–she can only speak as an object of research, through the colonizer’s narrative of her–not as a producer of knowledge"

You will never appease facists. Never. Columbia has worked overtime to appease them: using facial recognition tech to monitor us, firing deans, closing the gates, and for what? Students are miserable. Campus is a panopticon. And their funding was still cut.

This is a straight up violation of academic freedom. It is overtly homophobic and racist. It should ultimately be found unconstitutional but people have to fight the damage in the meantime. It discredits the NIH's reason for existing. link below

This public humiliation of an American proxy is extraordinary to watch. But remember, as he so often does, Trump is just laying out openly what the relationship between the American master and its foreign puppets has always been – albeit kept usually behind closed doors
