He’s being pressured to sign a very broad release in order to get his severance & last paycheck.
#Fire says they can’t help.
At the very least he needs an atty who can redline & negotiate his severance contract.

For a friend: #Pennsylvania 1st amendment attorneys:
I have a friend suddenly fired from his university position for assigning a VERY benign essay about virtue that some auditing students deemed “too political”.
He was given no opportunity to protest, & needs someone pro-bono ASAP.
It’s urgent.

Note for Democratic politicians: you don't have to start your condemnations of ICE raids with "We all want to catch violent criminals, but..." Just say "These raids have nothing to do with catching criminals and everything to do with terrorizing innocent minority groups."

No idea how we’re going to pay for health insurance starting Jan 1. 👇🏽
Even thinking about setting up a GoFundMe is humiliating, and NOT healthcare.
We're okay for now.
But if we, and millions of other Democrats, can see the financial crisis coming, so do Republican voters.
Keep up the pressure. 🗳️

Here we go! Trump creates a crisis by implementing tariffs on just about everything we import and then removes tariffs and acts like he has solved the problem. In the meantime, we are worse off than when we started.

Since he learned that the FBI was looking into his campaign’s ties to Russia, Trump has sought to discredit the investigation, impugn the individuals behind it, and insist that the whole thing was not just a “witch hunt,” but “the single greatest witch hunt of a politician in American history!”
