Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Talk of disappearing anyone into gulags in El Salvador is an affront to our Constitution. We need a few Republicans members to find the spine to join House Democrats in impeachment proceedings against the Fascist-in-Chief.

I am looking at a chamber filled with hundreds and hundreds of people, and if you asked me to seriously estimate what percentage of them understand how deep in the s*** we are right now, I mean really truly understand how close America is to full collapse, I would put the number at between 10 and 20

How long until the Library of Congress faces a purge? Should historians be getting what resources they can now? I'm imagining anything related to the civil rights movement, anti-fascism, and even public health could be gone soon.

I broke down sobbing in my boss's office today, in the middle of a budget meeting. It is just so surreal, planning a season 2 years from now, pretending that we have any clue what our society and lives are going to look like. I had a moment where I couldn't pretend.

ICE is detaining and questioning Indigenous people and Trump is arguing in court that they don’t have a right to birthright citizenship, so this incident from before the election certainly has a different complexion.

Yesterday 25% of field workers didn’t show up for work in Central California (which produces 25% of our food) for fear of ICE Raids. Today it was 75%…
Enjoy those grocery prices. 😎✨

I am LOVING all of the footage of Houstonians today... sledding, skiing, doing parking lot donuts, making snow angels, snowball fights... Houstonians of all ages PLAYING like children.
There are a LOT of people doing a tiny bit of healing today.
