@schumer.senate.gov ,what are you doing about the kidnapped members of the Global Sumud Flotilla?

Dear President Mangelsdorf, members of the Board of Trustees, and all University of Rochester administrators, International students are a vital part of the University of Rochester community. The inclusion of people from a wide variety of backgrounds, cultures, languages and geographical locations is integral to the fabric of our school. Without our international students, the University of Rochester would lose much of its richness and academic fullness. In light of the recent actions of the current administration against Harvard and its ability to host international students, it is more important than ever to stand firm in the face of these threats against academic freedom. A threat like this against an institution like Harvard is a threat against all institutions of higher learning and their freedom to educate. I am calling on the University administration to unequivocally reject any demands from the US administration that threaten the academic freedom of students and faculty at the University of Rochester and across the country. I am calling on the University of Rochester to join Harvard and other institutions of higher learning to defend our international students and their right to learn and express their ideas freely. If we falter in the defense of the free exchange of ideas from a multitude of backgrounds, we risk losing everything that we value. Please put the ideals you taught us into practice.

It’s TUES!

Tues vote for David Gottfried!

This is a blue district, but we can’t risk low turnout. That would result in an R flip

The only beauty they see is in what they can exploit the land for. The end goal is probably to wreck the park system so they can mine for resources and sell off the land for big profit.

Might save a life.

I spent $6.80 in cash at a locally owned restaurant today, and only because my drama kids asked me so nicely to join them for dinner. Other than that, no purchases, no card use #globaleconomicblackout

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot.

REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Kaine: "He let Musk force the resignation of the FAA administrator. He disbanded an aviation safety committee... he's got an OMB director who's pushing a hiring freeze & saying 'I want to traumatize the federal workforce'"... he's got an anti-safety agenda..that's why he went the race-baiting route"

Do. Not. Resign.

What are you and the other NY senators doing about the destruction of online archives happening right now?

This was a good one.

I loved James, Trail of Lightning, and Raybearer. Have you read any of S.A. Cosby's work? I very much enjoyed Razorblade Tears.
