L’Shana Tova Governor Pritzker. Wishing you and yours a sweet new year. Thank you for fighting the good fight.

We are in a bad episode of the Twilight Zone.

Not sure I want my k dramas filmed in the US. Well maybe Vancouver WA works?!

Cruelty to immigrant communities is not a policy solution.

Supreme Court to hear school disability discrimination case At issue is a case testing the reach of federal laws that promise special help for children with disabilities in public schools. Specifically: What do parents have to prove in order to get that specia...

This is an important case for students with disabilities, but there is one way the federal government could help. Fully fund #IDEA! The government currently gives about 15% instead of the promised 40% per student, causing a heavy financial burden on states.

I believe he was transfer out of CECOT in the past couple of days.

Seems kind of on brand

Opinion | If the ADL thinks Trump’s thuggery is protecting Jews, it’s wrong The Anti-Defamation League should loudly oppose the unlawful roundup of pro-Palestinian activists.

"We’re running out of bulwarks, and American Jews shouldn’t feel good about that just because the white nationalist arrow hasn’t yet spun in their direction." Thanks for reading.

💯

Thank you for spelling this out so clearly. The Jewish people are being scapegoated to benefit clearly unconstitutional actions by the administration. Beyond the paternalistic “we are protecting the Jews” it seeks to alienate Jews from their allies.

Doctor Behind Award-Winning Parkinson’s Research Among Scientists Purged From NIH Leading scientists at the National Institutes of Health, the US’s leading medical research agency, were swept up Tuesday in the Trump administration's latest firing blitz.

NEW: No fewer than 10 principle scientists at NIH investigating emerging infectious diseases and neural disorders were among those fired by RFK Jr. today.

One is an esteemed scientist awarded for breakthrough research into the causes of Parkinson's disease.

By me and @emilymullin.bsky.social:

Perhaps the plan is for the US to be kicked out and then the Russians invade. 🤔

The human capital flight from the U.S. is well underway.

Wouldn’t the SAVE act and the EO (basically requiring US passports to register to vote) amount to a POLL tax? How does this even help MAGA voters?

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

Screenshot of a McConnell tweet declaring “this week in the Senate proved that clumsy partisan jams will not work” after he filibustered a Democratic spending bill and Democrats agreed to allow a McConnell-preferred clean bill to pass to avert a shutdown.

In 2021, McConnell successfully filibustered a Democratic CR ahead of a government shutdown and forced them to accept a clean one instead. What happened this week - a total cave on a totally partisan long-term funding bill - hasn’t happened in the 20 years I’ve covered Congress.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Hi Matt! We’ve met! Hope you are hanging in there.

He was always a used car salesman at heart.

Since it apparently needs to be said: As a Jew who works on a university campus, I am safest in a country that protects academic freedom and liberal values of due process of law. Anyone who supports extrajudicial detention of students for "wrong" ideological opinions is not doing it for my safety.

Internal Memos: Senior USAID Leaders Warned Trump Appointees of Hundreds of Thousands of Deaths From Closing Agency One million children will go untreated for severe malnutrition, up to 166,000 people will die from malaria and 200,000 more children will be paralyzed by polio over the next decade, the memos…

Tuberculosis, the deadliest infectious disease on the planet, kills more than 1.25M people a year. New infections are expected to surge by 30% as a result of closing USAID, a memo says. The increase will inevitably lead to cases in the U.S.

The Trump Administration Said These Aid Programs Saved Lives. It Canceled Them Anyway. The axing of some 10,000 programs has consigned untold numbers of children and refugees to death, officials say. Documents and interviews reveal that the State Department appears to have made the cuts...

Walk out at the first lie.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.

He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

Call your Senators & Reps tomorrow morning, especially the GOP ones, & demand support for Ukraine. Every GOP official needs to be asked if they are behind Trump & believe we should ally with Putin over Zelensky.
