Now it's the professors using ChatGPT. Students aren't happy about it.

I talked to professors. I talked to students. I read the scathing reviews on Rate My Professors.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.

This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

The point of Senator Booker's filibuster is to be INSPIRED by this man to go find YOUR ROLE, not to wait for them to go save us now.

That is not this assignment.

Thread of places to go to get started. More coming out of LiST this Thursday.

The #1 topic for calls to my office today? Cory Booker’s floor speech.

So yeah… I’d say people are listening to him.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

This will have devastating consequences. Nearly a million K-12 students in Minnesota rely on funding from the Department of Education.

Students in rural communities, low-income families, and those who need special education services will be hit the hardest.

The complete elimination of the department would require the approval of Congress.

This is lunacy!

Trump wants to impeach a judge for not siding with him.

This is NOT how democracy works.

This shows you exactly why the courts are a necessary check on Trump's unhinged authoritarianism.

Trump is plunging into authoritarianism. Don't believe us? Here's proof 🧵:
1) He handpicked reporters to be in the press pool
2) He removed critical information from public websites
3) His loony co-president Musk threatened to fund primaries against politicians that defy Trump
