A not so gentle reminder to our government… transporting a minor child across state lines without permission of a guardian is kidnapping.
And I’ll up the ante to human trafficking.

Please let there be a wave of “green philanthropy” while we figure out how to tax billionaires to address climate crises which effect all of us
We need reparations for ICE victims.
Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.
I agree with this and it's something for which community groups should already be developing concrete plans. I think reparations are already due.
Even as a cynical scholar of rape culture, I'm shocked that this isn't the headline story on domestic politics everywhere right now. It's just an unfathomable abuse of power, in clear violation of the law.

To all the administration officials violating the rule of law: we will hold you accountable. Whether you survive your current positions or not.
The FEMA Higher-Education Symposium will not be happening again this year. So, as we did last year, we are hosting a free/virtual Emergency Management Colloquium in its place.
The Colloquium will take place June 3-4 and the deadline for proposals is March 15th (soon!!).
Hope to see you there.

The spring trainings I am looking to organize are around facilitation (how to facilitate meetings and events in a movement space, how to address common problems that trip folks up) and conflict resolution in movement groups. Very basic stuff that I am seeing is desperately needed.
CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes.
Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.
What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.
Study finds ChatGPT Health did not recommend a hospital visit when medically necessary in more than half of cases. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
My team and I have been anticipating this for months. It is unconstitutional and illegal.
The media should note: Last time he issued an EO about voting, we sued and won. If Trump issues such an order we will sue again and we will win again.
It's obvious why Trump and Republicans are wasting the American people's time with theatrics and distractions. The law is in plain language, release ALL of the files NOW.
This White House cover-up needs to end. It’s not that complicated: we need to release all the files and hold everyone – whether they’re a president or a prince – accountable.
Nothing says "pro-life" like men who want women executed for exercising their reproductive rights.
So many opportunities denied to so many of us
Deeply grateful to every single person organizing against these concentration camps. Thank you. I wish I had the capacity to substantively contribute to the efforts but I will at least uplift what you all are doing.
Oh yes she did!
Nancy Hopkins & other female scientists at MIT experienced sexism. One night in 1994, she carefully went into each lab WITH A TAPE MEASURE & calculated the area. It turned out that even a JUNIOR faculty member had more sq footage. MIT admitted fault.

Maine! It’s strange the things I don’t know are options until another place thinks it up
Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?
Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.
And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.
A MN protester accused of assaulting ICE officer had case dropped after vids showed no assault.
LA protester accused of assaulting ICE w/ “hat” had case dropped; judge said govt acted in “bad faith”
In Chicago, 92 ppl were arrested for assault/impeding ICE; 0 convicted
DOJ keeps lying and losing:
Curious how Maine GOP deflects this clear hit to Maine’s economy?
Harvard administrators pushed a faculty committee to cancel a long-running, biannual symposium featuring tenure-track women’s research, citing legal concerns about hosting a single-gender event. The cancellation comes as Harvard has scaled back...

We’re not letting this go.
Our Epstein billboard campaign is live in strategic locations nationwide—Florida (Mar-a-Lago 👀), Arizona, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Texas.
The message is simple:
Until every page of the Epstein files is released, we will keep up the pressure.
Now, bear with me, because Trump's Secretary of *Education* has been embroiled in a sex abuse lawsuit from her former place of employment which was, of course for an educator, WWE pro wrestling ...
👏👏👏👏 say it Governor Mills!!

What’s most disturbing to me re @mayor.nyc.gov’s failure to uphold the .05% allocation for libraries is that these are THE socialist institution, islands designed to secure everyone’s equal & free access to knowledge, tech & space otherwise monetized. They should be a socialist’s top priority.
Normalize laughing derisively in men's faces when they deserve it.
