They want to do illegal shit and see how we respond. The ONLY acceptable response is resistance. We don't let them move the needle. We don't give an inch. We insist on our rights.

This a real thing happening today. Don't look away.

I have made myself a website! To showcase my photography portfolio, which so far consists of my most meaningful ongoing project, “Enduring: Life with Severe ME/CFS”. The site also features my short biography. I kept the pages simple. 1/5

They are confident that the files will not be released because of an "open DOJ investigation" which is why they are agreeing to vote yes, not because they had a change of heart.

I'd actually argue that Summers' has such extreme biases when it comes to race and gender, that his expertise is suss.
I refuse to believe that Larry Summers' expertise and skills are indispensable in any way. Please find another economist and policy expert, @americanprogress.bsky.social. There are loads out there.
