In a shocking on-air moment, a “Fox and Friends” co-host said homeless people suffering from mental health issues who refuse help should be killed

It’s the guns. It’s the hate. It’s the hypocrisy. It’s that there is not a single corner of this country that is safe for most people. It’s not complicated and everyone actually knows that. Don’t become numb to it all. Especially those of us with more relative safety. 🖤 y’all.

The Brazilian government must protect their citizen!

🚨Freedom Flotilla Official Update🚨

It's time for our governments to do their jobs and sanction Israel whose illegal attack on 'Madleen' while sailing in international waters is a small extension of their war crimes in Gaza. Governments, institutions, media, and corporations...2/

A Letter to Home from a Weary ICE Agent Dearest Beloved, I received your missive of Thursday last with the greatest of gratitude, as I and my brave compatriots have five hours now awaited...

"I received your missive of Thursday last with the greatest of gratitude, as my brave compatriots and I have now waited five hours for the orders to approach a moderately busy intersection in the shopping district of a mid-sized American city."

This is as transgressive as it is gratuitous.

You know who believes in climate change? My mortgage company who harasses me for my condo insurance every 6 months and the insurance company that drastically raises the cost every year.

I’m 3 weeks into an 8 week recovery from surgery and I have not been wearing my 🍎 watch bc it is a bully! But yesterday I just changed the goals in my activity tracker to align with what I can do now. 🤯 In case anyone else needs a reminder that we control the watch lolol

Letters to the Editor: Our father helped create Target. Its rollback of DEI programs is a betrayal Two members of the Dayton family, which founded the Target Corp., express dismay over the company's rollback of DEI programs.

“We are alarmed how quickly the business community has given in to the current administration’s retaliatory threats. It is not ‘illegal’ for a company to create a business model based on what it believes to be important ethical and business standards.”

There's no way Elon Musk’s job is legal "Checks and balances, at the moment, seem to be neutralized.”

There is simply no legal architecture that would allow Musk, the richest man in the world, to remake the entire federal government without running afoul of criminal conflict of interest laws.

Over 50% of the U.S. did not vote DT into office. Stop that talking point and start understanding voting statistics. Not quite 64% of eligible voters turned out. Which is a lot but not everyone. DT got 49.8% of that group. Not a mandate. Not 55% of people at all. Precision still matters.

So much talk about how uncomfortable diversity must be for students at universities but no one likes to talk about what it’s like to grade papers where you student talks about the inherent inferiority of women and queer people…I guess because they figure we deserve it?

Every single report on the Trump funding freeze — every report on Medicare portal, Head Start, homeless veterans programs — needs to mention immediately WHY. The freeze is in order to complete an ideological purge of so-called “woke” programming. This is IMPORTANT, y’all.

A reminder that the Republican Party gained total control of the Florida Legislature, Governorship, and the Cabinet just over 20 years ago. They began dismantling public education right away. That is why we are here.

A lot of Americans just learning this week where their taxes go and what the federal government actually does. This is going to be a very very painful find out phase in this FAFO era.

Our lack of knowledge of history is really clear right now. Folks think the civil rights movement was quick. That one picture of a sit in or march you saw was ONE of hundreds of actions big and small sustained for years. Let’s get it together and lock tf in.

their view is that high status jobs ought to belong to white men, who exist at the top of a natural hierarchy

Rutgers cancels HBCU event to align with Trump DEI orders The Rutgers University Center for Minority Serving Institutions announced Thursday that it has canceled an upcoming virtual conference about registered apprenticeship programs as a result of President...

An HBCU conference at Rutgers was cancelled following Trump's EO:

“Unfortunately, due to President Trump’s Executive Orders … we have been asked to cease all work under the auspices of the DEIA HUB at Jobs for the Future, which the U.S. Dept. of Labor funds” www.insidehighered.com/news/quick-t...

Formal DEI roles have been important to move organizations forward and recognize the labor of folks doing it forever. But it is truly everyone’s work and won’t go away by demonizing it. And if you need a law to prevent you from discriminating you’ve definitely always been doing it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Devastated to learn from my colleague Don Romesburg that the Sonoma State University Women’s and Gender Studies Department is being eliminated, and all its tenured faculty are being fired, as part of “budget reductions”. wgs.sonoma.edu

Tracing the roots of anti-university rhetoric (opinion) Bradford Vivian writes that growing anti-university sentiment can be traced to pro-authoritarian movements abroad.

Political attacks on higher education will undoubtedly intensify beyond their already heightened levels. Understanding the authoritarian inspirations for those attacks is crucial. Re-upping my recent IHE article on this subject. #EduSky

Having ordinary civil servants turn against one another is a critical aspect of the authoritarian project.

Again, the gateway is racism.

This. And journalists must not allow them to have us calling civil rights DEI, because that is part of the propaganda.

A remarkable, historic document: The federal government’s first defense in court of the Trump administration restriction of birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented immigrants.

Actual lawyers signed this brief. I hope everyone reads it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

So let me get this straight, Rev Lorenzo Sewell gave an over the top prayer at the inauguration, and then literally launched a crypto coin after?

This is just the biggest grift in human history. Ever. OMG

My fellow educators- our students need us to not pretend like everything is ok and that they need to make our little assignments their sole priority while they fear for their own and their loved one’s safety and dignity. Let your students show up as people. Be their safer space. Care for them. Now.

H/t George Conway — it’s perfect 🤣 from Olivia Julianna:

So reproductiverights.gov no longer exists and we are out of the WHO

Masks coming all the way off 🎉

Remember that fascists want you to feel hopeless and helpless. We are neither. Continue to be a pain in their fucking ass, even if that just means refusing to go away.
