Trump & Clinton

Abolish Harvard.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

just fucking leak everything already, what are we doing here?

The Sons of Confederate Veterans in Georgia tried to block it, but a new museum will open on December 2 at Stone Mountain to tell the story of the largest Confederate monument in the world. The museum will explore the monument and its connection to white supremacy. 🗃️ www.reuters.com/world/us/bat...

Maybe the banks should just own all private property.

SCOOP: Schumer is weak

Student at the end of class today (Week 14): "Dr. Romero, I just never know what is going to come out of your mouth on any given day."

@ossoff.senate.gov statement?

I now want to abolish the Senate not because it is anti-democratic, but because if its Democratic members.

VA voters delivered an absolutely crushing victory for Dems last week, and now this.

Then why are you going to reopen the government without securing them, Senator? @ossoff.senate.gov

Really insane villainy from Trump2

I moved to GA in 2020. That year, voters here elected Sens @warnock.senate.gov and @ossoff.senate.gov. We managed to keep Warnock in office, and it's looking like Ossoff's reelection campaign will be even harder fought next year. GA is purple on a good day, so I get why Ossoff is nervous rn.

Well I called @ossoff.senate.gov. I hope he and @warnock.senate.gov stand firm.

There all is aching

@ossoff.senate.gov @ossoff.bsky.social please do not cave without ACA subsidies guaranteed

Maybe any "deal" needs to include a commitment to swear in Grijalva

This admin is absolutely dedicated to the noble cause of taking food away from hungry people. They’re working overtime. They’re fighting tooth and nail. They’re going above and beyond. Using your taxpayer dollars to advance their mission of stealing more from working people.

Incredible stuff

It is in the liberals' interest to make the court, as a whole, look callous and vile

Abolish the Ivies, seize their endowments.

straight-up jury nullification. this guy did it, confessed to it, and the jury instructions explicitly said that if he did it intentionally, it was assault.

I'm teaching our methods course next semester for the first time. It used to be a fairly standard "here's what sources are, come up with a research topic and do research" class, but we're sort of moving towards more of a "let's close read sources" model, along with some basic historiography stuff.

Jesus fucking Christ

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

I'm an academic, so I get the skepticism about "natsec" shit, but I'm also a Russian historian, so sign me the fuck up for "natsec" shit.

Eat my ass you fucking clown

ICE won't allow communion to be given in detention centers because demons quail and shiver at the divine presence in the Host.

MAMDATE OF HEAVEN

IN THIS HOUSE WE BELIEVE: -John Brown's body lies a-moulderin in the grave -John Brown's body lies a-moulderin in the grave - John Brown's body lies a-moulderin in the grave - His soul is marching on

Decision Desk has called both of Georgia's statewide races, for public service commissioner, for Democrats. If confirmed, this would be a really huge win for Democrats: It'd be their first statewide win in any non-federal race since 2006!

@drsepinwall.bsky.social epilogue for your book?

- Cheney demonstrated alas that for many/most GOPers issues of principle only matter when they affect you personally. Otherwise, what else is there to say? He made America and the world a good deal worse than it had to be and seemed utterly unrepentant about that. So. There we go.

Is YouTube music the best alternative to Spotify?

Based.

This is an argument for segregation, no?

It's the economy, stupid. Unless it's race.

Oh good

Y'all, what do you do intro world history surveys? I have 60+ students so anything besides lecture can be tough in the classroom... #skystorians

AND IT'S NOT GOOD. IT'S A TRAGEDY. THEY ARE SAD THEY HAVE TO RESORT TO BLOODSHED. FRODO NEVER RECOVERS.

Learning about Africa and Africans: WOKE

Dem ad: "His focus is the ballroom." "He might be able to go around the Constitution." "We're just going to kill people" Paid for by the Democratic Party.

The work of art in the age of mechanical reproduction 2

Tech savvy people: I need a new laptop. Doesn't need to be fancy, I'm just on word/PowerPoint/excel all day, and have a bunch of internet tabs open looking at different LMSs (blackboard, canvas, D2L). Anything affordable I can rely on to last several years?

It really does seem impossible to feel optimistic these days.

I know it was brain damage, but Fetterman's existence should disabuse us of wanting a working class white ogre on our team. Why not respectable like Ossoff or, if we really need masculinity, the dad energy of Walz?

Worthless shit ass
