#Racism, it’s said, is like the moving sidewalk at the airport. You can do 1 of 3 things: stand still & let the moving belt carry you, walk with it, or turn around & walk against it. #Antiracism is walking against the status quo. It’s hard work. #HardWorkIsGoodWork

I’ve just noticed the #libsky hashtag on here refers to libraries, not liberals, and I’m here for it. Libraries rock (and deserve all the hashtags)!

The conman who was forced to shut down his fake "university" because its operation was consumer fraud, is trying to undermine America's oldest, most prestigious, legitimate university through an abuse of presidential power.

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

Cory Booker is now in his *third hour* on the Senate floor—still speaking with heart, fire, and fierce conviction.
He’s not just holding the floor—he’s holding the line for democracy.
This is what moral courage looks like.
Keep going, Senator.
We see you.
We stand with you.✊🏽💙

I agree. This is a test to see if the American public will tolerate disappearances, and if we do, no one will be immune.
I asked an international human rights lawyer recently what red lines to watch for - he said, “when people start to disappear.” Well…https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/26/us/ice-tufts-student-detained-rumeysa-ozturk.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

The Trump administration has frozen the funds the city was relying on to kick-start its ambitious Philly Tree Plan — a decade-long initiative aimed at expanding the tree canopy.

It remains uncertain if the money will ever be released.
