Republicans have until March 14 to keep the government open.
Dems are willing to work together to protect critical services.
But their partisan bill takes away funding from veterans, health care, and housing.
If they want to pass their backwards bill, it’s on them.

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.

Academics are always seen as a threat in authoritarian regimes. We're among the first to be attacked--along with journalists, librarians. We're independent sources of knowledge, we think critically, we are viewed as powerful because we teach. Know your value, know why you're a threat. Be bold. 🥰

Blocking a user here is far more effective than it ever was on Twitter. It rips out all connection to replies, quotes, everything. They are erased from your life.
