I feel like I should post something commenting on the circus of the last few days but...I got nothing. #AlreadyExhausted

The EO that included restoring monuments/memorials on federal property is a full-on embrace of Confederate ideology. Beginning Monday @uncpress.bsky.social will make my book No Common Ground available to read FOR FREE for the next two weeks. Educate yourself about what this embrace means. ✊

Warming up my livetweeting (live-bluing? Live-skying? What do we call it now?) fingers. Tomorrow, I'll be watching the #SMH2025 tag while attending #PATNW2025. I'm looking forward to hearing from all these up and coming scholars!

It just occurred to me - based on this executive order, every person is identified as the biological sex at conception. Therefore, every human is female, and we should be calling Trump #MadamPresident.

Trump’s executive order on gender uses language pointing to ‘fetal personhood’
Words ‘at conception’ in order gesture to push by anti-abortion movement to give embryos and fetuses legal rights

Tip from @snowjob.bsky.social

If you have a whitehouse.gov link you want to access and it is down, try replacing "www.whitehouse.gov" with "bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov"

The national archives is still doing its job for now.
