In many ways, 9/11 was just like a big snowball fight

A Chicago police sergeant who has spent years attacking teachers w/ right wing bigoted hate campaigns is now retiring because she's been appointed to a DOL position in Trump's admin. People may remember Amelia Kessem for accusing NWS librarians of "indoctrinating" children during Pride month:

PSC/CUNY supports the SJU-AAUP chapter at St. John's University and condemns their administration's outrageous attempt to undermine the union and collective bargaining agreement. (1/3)

comically predictable

excuse me but why is alma suggesting "illegal aliens" as a search term when searching for this documentary?

I've always loved the background of Jacob Lawrence's 1943 painting "City College is Like a Beacon Over Harlem," with its snow-covered hill featuring numerous sled riders at play

Epstein responds in the affirmative, insisting "no really smart women---none." Schank, in turn, admits that his "very best Phd student was female," but laments that she "decided to quit being a professor," adding "that is the point; no matter how smart, she wanted to be liked or some such crap."

Relevant to today's conversation about AI's inherent sexism, here's an email from cognitive psychologist and early AI theorist Roger Schank, arguing to Epstein that women can't be truly intelligent, because they care too much about what other people think.

St. John's University has withdrawn recognition from the faculty union, 234 days since contract expiration. Shocking assault on labor rights. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Pushing this one last time for the week. If you are able to, please give even a little a bit to my friend Ali's fundraiser. Him and his family are still displaced in southern Lebanon. Even a few $ would help them secure food this ramadan.

is the snow even sticking anywhere bc uptown it is not

I hate this for NYC. The city is being over run with chains. Shit about to look like the mainstrip of an interstate exit. It’s also taking away the spirit of the city and destroying our food culture while killing people.

obsessed with this comment on the theme song to killer klownz from outer space. because what do you mean "relevant"

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported. He finally died. I am so angry. www.kptv.com/2026/02/21/n...

Children are suffering in a for-profit prison. Send them home. Abolish ICE. And ban private, for-profit prisons forever.

“A federal agent fired shots through the driver’s side window”. Sound familiar? That’s exactly how Renee Nicole Good was killed. This 23 year old lost his life and ICE’s involvement was covered up for a year. They’re killing people and hiding the evidence.

in america, if you go over your 3 minute allotment to speak, men with guns come to take you away.

Samah is a single mom of four. Ramadan started today, and the situation in Gaza remains devastating. She asked me to re-share her fundraiser - she isn't online & has struggled for support. Please help if you are able. This is one I've personally verified. www.gofundme.com/f/fund-for-s...

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.” - 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas. Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Here's how @jerusalem.bsky.social is promoting this anti-trans piece on Twitter

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

I wrote about the end of Keir Starmer for @thenation.com. www.thenation.com/article/worl...

Today in @thenation.com: @evenrobins.bsky.social on Keir Starmer. "He is a total void, absent any commitment to human dignity, justice, or the truth. Anything, that is, except his own power. And now, just 18 months into government, his end is finally in sight." www.thenation.com/article/worl...

Every single time a story like this is reported, we must assume that there are many many more that do not.

it really can't be said enough that this is a person who has dined with the president of the united states

All we hear of nuclear war is death and annihilation; is there nothing celebratory & joyous? Or is query naive?

the fact that one of the kids profiled in this story is named "Russian" tells you all you need to know

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?” There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

Following the Mamdani administration’s talks with the CUNY faculty union, three professors have returned to class after losing their jobs for their pro-Palestine activism. “What I’m hopeful for with Mamdani is not only a shift in policy, but a shift in the political energy." https://bit.ly/4aoXrAC

///BREAKING/// Body cams, texts, emails and other evidence have been released in the Oct. 4 shooting of Marimar Martinez by Border Patrol Agent Charles Exum, including this email to Exum by Cmdr. Greg Bovino on the day of the shooting Background: www.chicagotribune.com/2026/02/06/p...

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family. “He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

6/ “When I arrived every night I cried and now I don’t sleep well, I felt that being here was my fault and I only wanted to be on vacation like a normal family.” 9-year-old Maria Antonia Guerra Montoya, detained on her way to Disney World, spent 113+ days at Dilley.

Please take the time to read what the children detained in Dilley wrote me in their own words: www.propublica.org/article/ice-... 10/

did anyone see this alleged cuny super bowl ad?

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Note that this is local police not ICE or CPD attacking these young people. Local police are working overtime to distance themselves from ICE/CPD. Don't buy the hype.

This is Maria, a 6-year-old detained by ICE last year. She began to unravel soon after arriving at a detention center in Texas, wetting the bed after years without accidents, crying through the night and begging to breastfeed again. Most of all, she wanted to be reunited with her cat, Milo. 1/

Hey guys, I reported the Dezers connection to these ICE flights last October for @zeteo.com. Why are you not crediting me or Zeteo?

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley. Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo. Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles. Get them out!

Elizabeth Zuna Caisaguano, 11 years old. In dreadful ICE detention for nearly a month.

To anyone tempted to celebrate Noem's big announcement that ICE will use body cams and that it will be expanded nationwide as funding is available... That's already been official ICE policy for over two years. www.ice.gov/news/release....

The Twitter Files were the most scandalous and important documents ever but the ones about prominent politicians and members of the elite being pedophiles? Yawn
