I do not. I believe that the moment that the doctors feel they are clear legally to provide services, we should immediately hold a special board meeting and overturn it. We are currently fighting the Trump administration on this and we've beaten them 12 times. Working to make it 13.

Remember for 7 weeks in 2016 when email security was the most important issue in the election, and then....

Today, I joined @reprashida.govpeeps.us and @jeremymoss.bsky.social and others to speak out against ICE leasing space next door to my workplace in Southfield. ICE's raids and enforcement have spread fear in our communities. We stood together to say they are not welcome here.

ENDORSEMENT: Proud to announce the endorsement of the Michigan Democratic Party Black Caucus. Thank you for your support. Lets go win this thing!

ENDORSEMENT: Proud to announce the Support of the NMRCC (Formerly MRCC).

This is absolutely the bare minimum here.

Absolutely disgusted seeing this video of ICE murdering another US citizen in Minneapolis. This organization has no business enforcing our immigration laws. Calling them law enforcement is an insult to well-trained police anywhere.

Like so many Michiganders, fans, and alumni, I was shocked and disgusted by the revelations this week.

Considering how many great eating/drinking cities there are in the Big Ten traditional footprint, the fact that our championship game is constantly in Indianapolis is an abomination. #ISaidWhatISaid #SpicyTake

How many schools spending money to implore Congress to pass the SCORE Act are spending literally hundreds of millions on coach buyouts this weekend and pleading poverty?

Happy Regent Meeting Today. Any topics you want me to discuss? I'll answer questions over the day as I'm able. #umichregents.

So..today is campaign finance filing day. This quarter, I broke my own record for fundraising from 2018. We raised $160,839 this quarter, and have just over $250,000 on hand, with $277,523.82 total donated, raised from all corners of the state, and Michigan alumni all over the country.

Get up! It's MSU day! What's your favorite Michigan vs. MSU memory?

Jewish Organizations are failing Jewish Americans.

New cell number. Shoot me a DM and I'll get you the new one.

"You're a charlatan. That's what you are." -- Cantwell to RFK Jr

This is one of the most anguished decisions the University of Michigan has ever faced. Our doctors were threatened by the Trump Administration: provide gender-affirming care to minors and risk losing your license—or face jail.

Doctors, nurses, and staff at Michigan Medicine are being threatened—just for caring for patients. This isn’t just an attack on health care. It’s an assault on our values, weaponizing the federal government against the vulnerable.

Great chat last week with The ‪@chronicle.com of Higher Education on keeping institutions moving forward in turbulent times. Thanks to @reporterdavidj.bsky.social , Leslie Brunelli, and @jordanackermi.bsky.social for their insights. Watch: www.chronicle.com/events/virtu...

Ok friends, we are literally $130 dollars from our goal for the quarter with 2 hours to go. Help me get this done so we can be in great shape for 2026? secure.actblue.com/donate/acker...

There aren’t sufficient words to describe the president’s rants this morning, but I’ll say this again: Attacking a Jewish U.S. Senator as “Palestinian” is both antisemitic and racist at the same time — intended to divide us into “good” and “bad” Jews in a way that makes all of us less safe.

Happy Birthday to @jeremymoss.bsky.social who is celebrating his last 30s birthday by running for Congress. Support him? secure.actblue.com/donate/moss_...

SLOTKIN: Have you given the order to be able to shoot at unarmed protesters in any way? HEGSETH: What is that based on? SLOTKIN: It is based on Trump giving that order to your predecessor, who I give a lot of credit to bc he didn't accept the order. He has more guts & balls than you

Yes. According to Army protocol, congressional staff are VIP Code 5, with a rank equivalent to a two-star general/admiral. Members of Congress are of course significantly higher. I have never seen USCP, FPS, or any other federal LEO treat any Member with anywhere near this disrespect and violence.

"He doesn’t believe in anything—just auditions for approval in whatever room he’s in." — Fran Lebowitz

Every Jewish elected I know in the country has received an FBI-referred threat since 10/7. And yes, police details are now the norm.

In the Obama administration, the President hired Jeb Bush's (extremely competent) Emergency Management head because of his experience with Florida hurricane season, and also the disaster that was Katrina. Now, this:

Having known Abdul since college (we met while taking Arab Israeli Conflict Class at U-M!), I know what a fundamentally decent person he is. This is just another example of it. We don't have to agree on everything to care about each other or see each other as people.

Today, a peaceful Jewish community group stood on a street in Boulder, calling on Hamas to release innocent hostages. They were followed, harassed, and physically attacked. It was antisemitism. And honestly? It’s exhausting. A thread.

Look I know there's a lot of bad stuff happening in the world but Taylor has her masters back.

There is no bigger win for our enemies abroad than stopping the best weapon of freedom and democracy--attracting the best and brightest from across the world to work, start businesses, and innovate in America.

Actually, the only thing that Universities need to do is abide by the laws. No administration, Democratic or Republican, should tell a University how to do research.

This is obvious, maddening, and never going to change.

Uh, no. American Jews are not responsible for Israeli behavior. Not sure why you can't see this. Unless you think that it would be okay to attack Chinese Americans for the behavior of the Chinese government.

Do you blame Mexican Americans for the actions of the Mexican government? If not, why is that?

Two young people were murdered last night outside a Jewish event in DC. My house was attacked in December. My business in June. On the Diag, banners read “Globalize the Intifada.” This isn’t protest. It’s a threat. This is what antisemitism looks like — and it’s escalating.

Operating hospitals that don't have tons of private payers (i.e anything outside a rich major metropolitan area) quickly becomes impossible without Medicaid.

When I was little my mom told me on the Magic Johnson basketball card I had that he was holding up two fingers because he admitted that they were second best to the Pistons. I also was told that if you didn't admit you committed a foul in basketball you got a technical.
