Some people were confused by my ICE post. This should clear it up.

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing.

That is all.

Happy Nee Year Folx last year was hard but there were some beautiful moments

I said something last week that is more broadly applicable today:

The Bill Moyers that obituaries missed The “secular preacher” of TV journalism was also a ferocious critic of corrupt politicians and corporate titans—and the spineless media that enable them.

Few people have embodied the best of journalism—its ability to cut through BS, its capacity to uplift those who’ve been wronged, its burning appetite to tell the stories people need to know—like Bill Moyers.

We’ve never needed him more, writes @monikab.bsky.social.

Get a shelter dog. Pitbulls don’t drool a lot, they’re very sociable and loving and will protect you with their lives. And no double coat to deal with.

Protesters force Israeli Ambassador off campus An invitation to speak about international relations at Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar went awry for Yuval Wak, Israel's ambassador in Senegal. Before he could deliver his speech, student protesters waving the Palestinian flag and chanting "Free Palestine" entered the venue, forcing him to power-walk off campus as students heckled. Across the pond, the United States government has frozen visa applications for international students as it prepares "guidance" on social media sleuthing to weed out those who might chant "Free Palestine" on American soil.

As always, the students lead the way. 🇵🇸

So good for your mental health

I’m always so surprised people don’t boycott Walmart. Their employment practices are total garbage.

The Supreme Court Just Ruled Against Trump—but Don’t Get Too Excited Even as the court rejected Trump’s freeze on USAID, it effectively gave him another chance to delay sending life-saving money abroad.

Yesterday, the Supreme Court ordered Trump to resume USAID payments. Spoiler: He won't. Roberts gave him additional opportunities to delay, while Alito wrote a completely bonkers dissent sure to embolden Trump further.

How Do We Combat the Racist History of Public Education? A conversation with Eve L. Ewing about the schoolhouse’s role in enforcing racial hierarchy and her book Original Sins.

"Education, because it involves children, because it’s largely women who are in the labor force, and because it’s something that people think they know...for all those reasons, its interrelatedness to other social issues is ignored."
