Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

So, Trumps plan has been to make us a rogue nation as it relates to trade? It doesn’t seem to be a trade war… US is fighting with everyone, while everyone else co-operates with one another. Example: China, Japan & S. Korea have made up. Reorganizing Asian & Global trading systems.

 A tweet from "Republicans against Trump" quotes GOP Rep. Don Bacon criticizing the handling of classified information on an unclassified device. Below, a CNN screenshot shows a reporter in a dark suit interviewing Rep. Don Bacon, who is wearing a suit with a blue tie, in a hallway. The CNN chyron reads, "TODAY: TRUMP INTEL OFFICIALS APPEAR BEFORE SENATE COMMITTEE" with a subheading identifying Rep. Bacon as a Republican from Nebraska. The setting is indoors with beige walls and overhead lighting.

While AOC & Bernie stand with everyday Americans—tapping into frustration, fear, and anger, drawing huge crowds—Schumer is holed up in DC, bouncing from talk show to talk show, defending a vote he never should’ve made.

That’s not leadership; that’s self-preservation.

This is how an apartment building in Kyiv looks like after a Russian drone attack. The residents' apartments, cars were burned. An elderly woman was killed, as well as a dad and his child.

Ukrainians go to bed each night knowing we might wake up like this.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

Appellate court rules Ohio's ban on gender transition treatment for minors unconstitutional The law banning gender transition treatments for minors is headed to the Ohio Supreme Court for a final decision.

The Legislature passed the law in 2023 and later overrode a veto by the Republican governor. The state appeals court said parents have a "fundamental right" to seek medical care for children.

The Truth About the U.S. Border | Robert Reich
The full story about immigration you aren't getting from politicians and the media. Watch More: The Military-Industrial Drain ►► https://youtu.be/OnR84h7t5kI A desperate combination of factors are driving migrants and asylum seekers to our southern border, from Central America in particular: deep economic inequality, corruption, and high rates of poverty, as well as violence and instability tied to historic U.S. support for brutal authoritarian regimes, right-wing paramilitary groups, and corporate interests in Latin America. In other words, the United States is very much part of the root of this problem. Some politicians want you to believe the way to address this humanitarian tragedy is to double down on border security and build walls to deter people from coming. They’re wrong. Several administrations have tried this approach. It's failed every time. Our bloated spending on the border-industrial complex has done nothing but increase human suffering without dealing with the root causes of... The Truth About the U.S. Border | Robert Reich

The stock prices of America's largest private prison and detention center operators have skyrocketed since Trump's victory.

Why?

Because the border-industrial complex stands to profit handsomely from Trump's anti-immigrant agenda.

Struggling to understand what seems to be half of the US population staying rooted in ignorance. I turned to literature and reminded of, “And makes us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others that we know not of”William Shakespeare's Hamlet.
