Tomorrow is the 5th anniversary of the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol.

I’m proud of the work we did on the House January 6th Committee.

January 6th should’ve been the end of a political movement based on a cult of personality, conspiracism, extremism & lies. Instead, it is now in power.

LOVE to discover, the week before teaching starts, that the UK government's nonsense has blocked access to @archive.org so a load of readings on Aztec-Mexica history now aren't available to my students.

All of the major media organizations over the last decade have been systematically bought up by oligarchs, dismantled, and turned into propaganda organs benefiting the oligarchs. This was not by accident, this was a concerted effort to exercise more control over US society.
