I’m telling you, there’s just not enough outrage about the craven actions of Speaker Mike Johnson.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

A taco place in Ballard shut down early tonight after an alleged ICE spotting. Meanwhile SPD is cracking down on anti-ICE protesters outside the Seattle Federal Building for the second night in a row. The city is on edge right now with tensions high and discontent bubbling.

Vance hearts Miller

Look how quickly the Vice President of the United States pivoted to portraying Stephen Miller(!) as a victim of the press.

All because a reporter stated the obvious truth about Miller’s hate-mongering.

MAGA = constant victimology and grievances.

Judge in the lower federal courts are trying to play a role that are not used to, trying to wake up the public to what's going on, while remaining true to their constitutional role.

Yes! More of this please. 👍🏽

What DEI threatens isn’t merit. It’s monopoly. Political science professor Hakeem Jefferson argues for DEI's importance to de-monopolizing universities.

A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond.

I hope you’ll read and share the piece.

Well, that doesn't sound like a good idea. Lots of us historians recall well how important getting regular food inspections and regulations into federal hands was in US history... same with emissions and pollution inspections and data collection, which are also about to downshifted by the EPA.

I think it’s been past time to ask ourselves…

What are the steps we need to take to ensure a true Multi-Racial & Multi-Culture democracy?

What connects us all…let’s start there.

Take him to court! 🤷🏾‍♂️

Thinking about Trump’s executive order regarding the Department of Education and a line from the book I am writing comes to mind.

“Not everything in the US is about race; yet, so much, if not everything, is.”
