This is what courage in the face of authoritarianism looks like. No university should take Trump's bribe & surrender their integrity — bending the knee to a bully only feeds the beast & puts ALL our rights at risk.

Others should follows MIT’s example ASAP.

If we make it through this it’s because the other side is dumb as rocks.

Tweet from Blue Georgia summarizing Chris Hayes on MSNBC: “New reporting from the Wall Street Journal tonight, that message Trump posted to Pam Bondi online was meant to be a DM he accidentally posted publicly… Pam was surprised, upset, called White House aides.” Below is a Wall Street Journal headline excerpt about Trump’s private message urging prosecution of James Comey, and a photo of Pam Bondi speaking.

From the Nobel Committee today:

“Democracy depends on people who refuse to stay silent, who dare to step forward despite grave risk, and who remind us that freedom must never be taken for granted, but must always be defended – with words, with courage and with determination.”

Look at the unrest and mayhem here.

We have some knitters here, they're going to add some knitters, they're calling it a knit-in, instead of a sit-in.
