And dog your members of Congress. I don't care if they are Republicans or Democrats. Show up at their offices every week. Bang on about CDC, NIH, FDA, CMS (and learn about these agencies, what they do, how they function in normal times). 14/

We've got to use all non-violent, peaceful means to stop these people. And non-violent doesn't mean weak--from Gandhi to MLK Jr--we can move mountains without raising a hand. 11/

But it means organizing in your neighborhood--create a small team. Figure out how you can raise the alarm. Local papers? Local radio? PTA meetings? Kiwanis? Chamber of Commerce? 12/

This is disgustingly antisemitic

It’s nice to see ARLNow’s stuff without having to wade through some of the most clueless commenters I’ve ever seen on the internet

If Columbia U. administrators think this is enough to stop further abuses, they’re deluding themselves. It will invite worse misconduct. Protesting on behalf of the victims of war is not a crime.
breaking via inbox: “On March 8, Department of Homeland Security agents arrested Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist and recent grad student at Columbia, at his place of residence, an apartment building owned by the university. The DHS agents said that the State Dept revoked Khalil’s green card.”

If you don’t have the integrity to defend my trans friends, you aren’t qualified for elected office.
Senator Elissa Slotkin, asked if she agrees with Gavin Newsom's position on trans athletes, gets visibly nervous and refuses to answer the question.

Agreed (once again, Mina Kimes knows ball).

Apparently, Eagles fans want to pretend that Xavier Worthy didn't have 157 yards and two touchdowns tonight because... uh... they aren't satisfied with celebrating a championship and need to be whiny on the Internet instead? Was the blowout win not enough for you guys?

This is wrong and it will not shield the NCAA from other unacceptable demands further down the road. Indefensible decision, dangerously shortsighted.
in 2016, Charlie Baker and the NCAA took pro-trans stances. In 2025, they instantly gave in to transphobia to stay on the good side of Trump and Congress.
In doing so, they've helped give cover to all the other anti-trans garbage these bigots will try to pull.

The spineless cowardice of the NCAA's anti-trans swerve
A decade ago, the NCAA stood up on trans issues. Now that trans people are under attack, they've given in to bigots.
