Playing politics with people lives is diabolical. I can't stop thinking about how many poor folks in the US are scrambling to find access to food.

Hating poor folks is not political ideology. It's just evil.

It’s actually really heartening to see the current cohort of “senior” scholars opening talking about unionizing.

When I was in grad school so many people I looked up to were hostile to faculty unionizing, grad student unionizing, even discussing striking.

Hyper individualism will not protect you.

I'm not against the No Kings protest - you should go. But also be careful not to compare this to what we're watching in LA. There's a difference between a permitted, coordinated march that advocates a return to a sense of status quo & a grassroots movement that calls for its abolition. 1/

New — Rumeysa Ozturk was supposed to be transferred to Vermont this Thursday. Instead, the Second Circuit has stalled it until a panel of judges hears the Trump admin’s arguments to keep her in Louisiana.

Rumeysa has not been accused of a crime.

She co-wrote a campus op-ed.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.

It is blatantly unconstitutional.

UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off.

We would have more rights at this point if UPS had lost a pair of shoes I'd just bought from Zappos
My detained client was scheduled for a bond hearing this AM in a MA immigration court. He wasn't brought in, and he and his case have disappeared.

I then received this notice of activity on a nonexistent docket in which his name was changed to "N/A"

It's all happening a lot faster than I expected
