Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol made $95 million last year. His workers are striking for the bare minimum. Glad to be on the right side of the picket line with them.

My wife has been HIV+ for 34 years. She’s alive today b/c work of activists who destigmatized the virus, pushed medical science to adapt & find ways to treat it, & advocated for gov health programs that helped fund her care. The current U.S. regime may want to go back in time, but we won’t let them.

THIS IS HUGE! THE GOVERNMENT JUST ADMITTED NOEM GAVE THE COMMAND TO IGNORE THE TURN-AROUND ORDERS IN THE PLANES IN THE AIR CASE!

Remember yay back in March, when Trump decided to try to use the Alien Enemies Act to deport immigrants, and he had a bunch loaded up on planes bound for El Salvador?

OTD in 2014, police officer Timothy Loehmann killed 12-year-old Tamir Rice—a Black child—in 1.7 seconds as Tamir played in a park.

People often talk about those 1.7 seconds—but forget about the 4 minutes. After Loehmann shot Tamir, he refused to let anyone get near him for 4 agonizing minutes.

The Trump regime is turning public education into workforce training, & they’re trying to be sneaky about it.

But when we look at these policies together (the earnings test where trade certificates are exempt, pushing K–12 kids into trades, & moving Title I to the Department of Labor), it’s clear.

Apart from being obviously awful you can see from the flash of anger on his face that he is feeling *completely* out of control about this situation. Reminds me of the interview he bailed on in the ESPN 30 for 30, “Who Killed the USFL,” when he was confronted on his failures by a reporter
"Quiet! Quiet, Piggy."

Apparently JD Vance’s team ran over and nearly killed a police officer? While they were on their way to a fundraiser? And it’s receiving barely any national coverage?

What the hell happened?

Acton: I’m running against a guy, Vivek Ramaswamy, who has said that people are struggling in Ohio because they’re lazy, they’re mediocre, they’re not working hard enough. And I can absolutely tell you that is not the Ohioans I know or see. I think he’s completely out of touch.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills: the emails from Landon Thomas has his New York Times signature block...he was employed by NY Times at the time. He was communicating directly with Epstein about Trump, and was given incriminating information about Trump. It's been in NYT's possession since 2015

UC students, feel free to lodge complaints about me, I will be so hilarious about it online.
Indiana University removed a Lecturer from her "Diversity, Human Rights, and Social Justice" course after a student filed a complaint about a graphic the instructor showed in class, which included "Make America Great Again" as an example of "Covert White Supremacy."
