It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

I've had little to lose in publishing articles against genocide like these. Mary Bassett, by contrast, had plenty she had earned and thus to lose. But when standing by her ethical commitments came with cost, like her firing at Harvard today, she didn't hesitate.

Mary and I wrote about that refusal as it was happening––and it's still the dominant norm even today as Mary is dismissed for standing by her ethical principles.

Five years ago today, Andrew Cuomo ordered nursing homes to take in COVID-positive patients.

This is the story of just one family impacted by his fatal mismanagement.
In March 2020, Andrew Cuomo ordered nursing homes to take in patients with COVID. He spent the next five years trying to cover up the consequences.

I visited Peter and Daniel Arbeeny, who lost their beloved father Norman, to learn about the fight for accountability and justice.

Today I confronted “border czar” Tom Homan who came to Albany to do Trump’s bidding — push for mass deportations, carry out the assault on working class New Yorkers, and justify the unjustifiable detention of legal permanent resident and father-to-be, Mahmoud Khalil.

The arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil—a green card holder whose wife is eight months pregnant—is a blatant assault on the First Amendment and a sign of advancing authoritarianism under Trump. He must be released now.
This extreme escalation is an egregious violation of first amendment rights. Now is the moment to speak out and oppose this as fiercely and loudly as possible.
