The timing is so suspicious.

The '3.5% rule': How a small minority can change the world Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.

Never forget that non-violence is the best way to achieve a desired political outcome

This is absolutely right on every point and everyone who sits on a governing board or serves as president or provost or similar should please make the time to read it.

Did anyone see that new leadership in the Capitol Police went and ransacked all of @flareusa.bsky.social ‘s stuff? Personal and organization proper stolen?

Is anyone paying attention? @hcrichardson.bsky.social you see any of my emails yet asking for help? Who will help?

Sorry about your luck, 24 million Trump voters It has been the case since Donald Trump's first tenure as president that he wants to slice the size of the federal workforce. During his period in the political wilderness (also known as the Biden adm...

Yeah, let’s get government out of your lives.

Trump bails out far-right Argentinian leaders (not the Argentinian people) giving them $20 Billion while he doubles millions of Americans' health care premiums.

Trump is stealing from you.

Dwell on this.

Why *almost* every door? What made the difference? Hardware, reportedly.

I can’t say I know exactly how it all would have played out, but I would much rather live in the alternate universe where the leaders of Columbia University had stood up for the institution and all of its faculty and students.

All that time we spent studying the Fourth Amendment and the Roberts Court just turns it off in the shadow docket

On IG, simonsaysvote posted the following and it made me think of what you said above—“The Dems are being blamed for the shutdown is like a wife is being blamed for her alcoholic husband’s DUI because she didn’t take away the keys.”

It’s the giddy joy and celebration they have at the misery of people far less fortunate.

A week after her win in Arizona, @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social still has not been sworn in by Speaker Johnson

I'm sure that this extravagant pledge to guarantee the security of Qatar wasn't a quid pro quo for the "free" 747 or motivated to protect the enormous Trump golf resort Donald is being paid to build in that country. Probably all about protecting American interests—KIDDING! (BTW, it looks so tacky.)

Swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva. Release the Epstein files. Expose and punish pedofiles.

He can’t take tariff money and give it to anyone, so that is bs. Congress has to pass another farm bailout bill just like they had to the last time Trump wrecked their businesses. So farmers will have to embrace socialism again since they can’t compete in market capitalism.
