This is brilliant:

May other universities follow MIT's courageous stance. Do not obey in advance!

This is America. We continue to weep for the country we're losing and fight for the country we are capable of being.

Firing scientists and physicians while hiring thousands of ICE agents (thugs) is a reflection of a morally and psychologically ill society (and most certainly the regime in charge). And it leaves us more vulnerable than safe.

PORTLAND: “The frogs are multiplying”

(#NotAWarZone Noem Matter what Kristi says)

Even if this peace holds, even if Trump earns credit for it, he should never be considered for the Nobel Peace Prize. He has fomented hate and violence, created a Dept of War, has had non-combatant Venezuelans killed, is a convicted felon, been held liable for sexual abuse, and the list goes on.

We couldn't agree with you more! And this doesn't even take into account that this president is a convicted felon who has been accused multiple times (and in one instance found liable) of sexual assault.

The malicious prosecution of Attorney General Tish James is baseless.

And the indictment is not worth the paper it is written on.

We stand with AG Letitia James and all who have fought against this authoritarian attempt to silence opposition and to undo the rule of law.

Stay strong, and thank you for all you do on behalf of New Yorkers and the rule of law. And for inspiring other AGs to follow your courageous lead!

“King Donald The First. F*ck that.”

Robert De Niro wants to see you in the streets on October 18 to show the world that America has no kings, and power still belongs to the people: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Portland has elevated protesting to an art form.

Imprisoning one's political enemies is right out of the authoritarian playbook. Talking about doing so is a trial balloon, saying the quiet part out loud.

We are proud to be New Yorkers as our state was ranked number #1 in having a lower prevalence of mental illness and a higher rate of access to care.: mhanational.org/the-state-of...
