#Hamilton celebrates 10 years!
Fun fact: My 11yo daughter learned about the Revolutionary War last year and told me yesterday that she had a hard time imagining Washington and Jefferson as white guys because, to her, they’re not. I thought that was a pretty awesome anecdote.

>>I was with a public health professor from [major university] last weekend and he said that NIH is now euthanizing whole cohorts of animals from animal studies because there is nobody around to feed them<<
Great work.

Thou shalt not talk about BribeJet or pictures of seashells or criticize his morality or call his mental condition into question or else he will get really really angry and post an ALL CAPS LIE on LieSocial and then sue you and eventually lose. So you know, oh no.

Mahmoud Khalil still has not met his newborn baby, because the judge refuses to grant him bail. Having clerked for a federal judge, I know firsthand that public pressure works. Send him a (polite) letter demanding Khalil be set free:

New Republic: Mr Summary Rendition, Karl Rove, has infuriated Trump by saying, “But the fact is, bring him (Abrego Garcia) back to the United States, lay out the facts in a court of law, and get it done”. I did not have Rove arguing FOR giving migrants due process on my dance card.

On 2/19/1942, FDR signed Executive Order 9066 forcing the removal of over 100,000 Japanese Americans to “relocation camps,” with less than 2 days to get affairs in order. They lost their homes, businesses, farms and communities. Never forget, stop allowing it again #AAPI
