I hung up my DOGE termination letter near where I’m writing my book, as a reminder that the Humanities matters to a free and open society.
Far worse than the end of my NEH grant is the wholesale gutting of the NEH itself, an incalculable loss that we must fight to prevent.

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks.
Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again.
NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

Dollars and nonsense: House Republicans vote to defund D.C. police and schools
Congress could force D.C. to cut $1.1 billion out of its local budget, which could lead to cuts in services and layoffs.

when Elon Musk started recruiting for DOGE last November, he said the work would be “tedious” and “compensation is zero"
now it turns out some DOGE operatives are earning six-figure salaries, one as high as $195,200, as much as a civil servant can legally make

Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s dismantling of USAID will lead to millions of preventable deaths.
The decision of the richest person in the world to destroy an agency that delivers life-saving aid to the poorest people on the planet is unconscionable.

Grievable deaths.
Si hay algo por lo cual los que vivimos en EE.UU. deberíamos estar en las calles es por el sistema de salud corporativo, fraudulento, usurero y corrupto de este país. Un sistema de salud que conduce a los más vulnerables a la muerte y a la desesperación en aras de maximizar las ganancias.
UnitedHealthcare has been accused of using algorithms to deny treatments and refusing coverage of nursing care to stroke patients. UnitedHealthcare and its parent company now face a class-action lawsuit over its use of the algorithm.
