@slotkin.senate.gov why are you endorsing giving $50 million of our tax payer dollars to a mining company for a project that could contaminate our Great Lakes? How much money have you taken from them? You never answer your constituents but you have all the time for lobbies and Israel.

Yet still nothing to say about the new private ICE facility in MI? And still supporting genocide in Palestine?

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:
“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

If you want to understand the horror and tragedy of our current moment - you have to watch #andor
The heartbreak that emerges is that we all know deep down this genocide was preventable, but there are more Dedras and Cyrils in our galaxy than Cassians and Bixes.

One of the reasons I stay over there is to follow Palestinians and I keep hearing that Bluesky is erasing Palestinian accounts? Anyone who law hear that? Is there a Palestinian starter pack on here?

DHS has admitted in court it doesn’t have authority to terminate student non-immigrant status, even when it changes or terminates their SEVIS status, contrary to the info provided by unis to affected students.
This admission, a tactic to evade a lawsuit, is grounds for schools to defend students.

A few tips for NEH grantees:
1) if you've spent money on an awarded grant but have not yet drawn down the funds, make sure to submit the paperwork to drawn down funds ASAP.
2) the NYTimes article suggests that "DOGE" might cancel awards. If you receive an email from DOGE cancelling your NEH award,
