immigrant students. US-born students, legal citizens, are also afraid because of how severe the Trump-era escalation has become. The videos and stories circulating online have only heightened that fear. No student should ever feel unsafe or afraid to attend school because of their own government.

This is further evidence of apartheid Israel’s continued subjugation of Palestinians, both in the occupied territories and within present-day Israel, which is criminalized under international law and punishable according to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.

Nearly every panel I spoke on this year ended with the same question: "What gives you hope?"
My friends, that question expired years ago. (If you need receipts, my book Saving Us is literally a 300-page answer.)
The real question is: How are you PRACTICING hope?
Because Greta is right ..

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Peaceful protest against fascists accomplishes two things:
-It allows authorities to identify protestors
-It injures protestors
It does nothing else.
You can't protest a fascist regime. Your country has gone beyond where law or public opinion can change it.
Now or later, it will be violence.

Update: I offered the amendment. Not to refuse acceptance of the Qatari jet; just to prohibit Trump from taking it with him when he leaves office - after the taxpayers spend $1 billion to retrofit it.
Failed 14-15. Every single Republican voted to allow Trump to take the jet.

The fight against corruption has to be ceaseless.
Today in the Appropriations Committee, I will offer an amendment to prohibit the Qatari jet that was gifted to Trump (which is going to cost taxpayers $1 billion) from being transferred to him personally.
Stay tuned.

At a vigil in Montreal for the child victims of Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, advocates have been reading each of these children’s names — from youngest to oldest.
They started at 8:00am. By 9:00pm, they had only reached the names of the nine-year-olds.

Men, read this whole thread. Then read the QT’d thread. Then think about it. Because we’re exhausted. We can’t police you - you have to police yourselves. Call out your fellow men. Say, “Hey, that’s not cool,” when your bud won’t leave a woman alone. BE ALLIES instead of claiming to be allies.
Thanks for this. We actually spend just a huge amount of time, labor and mental health trying to not get physically harmed while doing banal life things.
Every man who's gotten angry at a woman for giving him a fake number, or putting out "mixed signals," or not "just saying what you mean,"
Instead of getting angry at the men who have made those GOOD AND RATIONAL STRATEGIES FOR WOMEN TO PROTECT THEMSELVES,
has lost the fucking plot.

Literally the only case of a trans person doing domestic terrorism I can think of was Ziz / the Zizians, and the violence was not motivated by her transness, it was motivated by a conspiritorial AI death cult ideology and a shitty Harry potter fanfic.

Republicans voted NO. They voted to shutter some 200 health clinics and deny women basic health care like cancer screenings & birth control.
