Jacob Frey: "To ICE -- get the fuck out of Minneapolis"

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK

ICE has murdered an American citizen in Minneapolis. They're claiming self defense but witnesses say the woman they killed was complying with their orders to get her car out of their way. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Mayor Jacob Frey: "They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit."

“abolish ICE” was always the correct position

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times." Bovino was there. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing. You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics. That is all.

AS A PROFESSOR, I AM ASKING HOW ARE OUR STUDENTS SUPPOSED TO LEARN IN THESE CONDITIONS? HOW ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO GO TO SCHOOL AND TAKE EXAMS KNOWING SOMEONE MIGHT JUST SHOW UP WITH AN EASY TO ACQUIRE AUTOMATIC WEAPON? HOW??????????

I am a student at Brown in communication with a friend at RIBC. There is an urgent need for blood donations to support RI. Donations in NY, NJ, MN, NB, DE or NJ can help supply RI. Spread the word. www.ribc.org/donate-blood/

We are in the “is class cancelled today” phase of Canvas has been down all day. I have failed as an educator that my students think it is utterly impossible for us to have class when the LMS is broken

As one might expect the lobsters have come to No Kings in Boston

"More professors in the United States have been fired for controversial views in the past week than any other week in all of American history." www.insidehighered.com/opinion/colu...

“Debate Me” culture is not organic, endemic, or apolitical. This mode of high jacking discourse is and has been central to a 30-year conservative training program that has produced untold numbers of people to do this for every reason but “civil discourse”

No elected official Democratic party will be as cruel about Kirk's death as Mike Lee was about the death of Melissa Hortman. wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/06/17/s...

THIS. It has hurt STEM students on the job front as much as it’s hurt humanities enrollments. We claim to be helping these students w focused ‘job ready’ degrees. It’s a lie. It has always been a lie.

say it again: 4 million people work in higher ed, the largest employer in 10 states, second largest employer in 10 more, and in 60 of the 100 biggest cities demolishing higher education is economic sabotage

Most reporting is just not up to the task of registering both that 1) the White House is *attacking* universities *as institutions* 2) the White House is working *with* universities’ boards to achieve *common goals* for remaking and weakening those institutions

A seminar on Thoreau (excluding Walden) taught by a MacArthur fellow.

Matt Walsh's imaginary professor: "good morning student-comrades. today we learn how to bayonet a white Christian capitalist while taking trans hormones" actual average professor: "folks, I am begging you, please do the reading for tomorrow this time. it is five pages"

There's something about the way men use LLMs that feel like those men at the strip club who believe that the dancers like them for their personality and wit. They just want a toy that makes them feel good.

In a study of professors, women got 378 new work requests over 4 weeks vs 118 for men. Women spent more time on service, advising & teaching; men on research. Orgs should track who is taking extra duties & ensure they are rewarded and distributed fairly. www.forbes.com/sites/kimels...

UPDATE: The Indiana legislature announced that, across the state's public universities, it will immediately eliminate 75 programs, suspend/teach-out 101, and force 232 to consolidate or be eliminated. Not surprisingly, these closures disproportionately affect arts, humanities, and social science.

"Learn to code" was always bad advice, unless you actually like to code. College students have the best chance of professional success if they major in topics that interest them. Today in @startribune.com. Please tell high school students and parents. www.startribune.com/what-should-...

****majors are not the only metric of a department or program’s value****

Our country needs to be stopped

Ed Tech is a Trojan horse for tech elite capture of public resources. Every time.

People need to understand, talk to the historians, when the government is putting hands on their opposition in the government, that's deep totalitarianism. That's what any brutal scary empire ruled by an autocrat from the ages looks like. So wake up if you think the America you live in is not that.

So ICE is now more powerful than a sitting US senator? I hope every democrat congressperson stands up for their colleague and demands accountability for what happened to Alex Padilla. They won’t but I wish they would.

BREAKING: They brutalized a U.S. Senator on camera and called it “security.” Kristi Noem didn’t flinch. Sen. Alex Padilla was arrested like a common criminal—because fascists don’t give a fuck about titles. If you oppose them, they’ll come for you. Believe that.

My favorite breakfast/lunch place is playing an “oldies” playlist consisting of songs from my college radio era—I feel both seen and attacked

This is the spirit of Los Angeles. This is California. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. #FreeDavidEndRaids

- WEAR SUNSCREEN - DON'T POUR MILK IN YOUR EYES OR OTHERS' EYES - IT'S OKAY TO IGNORE PEOPLE WITH MEGAPHONES IF THEY ARE GIVING YOU BAD ADVICE - AVOID POSTING IDENTIFIABLE PICTURES OF PEOPLE ON SOCIAL MEDIA IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, COPS ROUTINELY KILL THE SUBJECTS OF ICONIC PHOTOS

As someone who lives in Los Angeles, don’t let social or mainstream media gaslight you into thinking there’s a violent uprising taking place here. The Trump administration is trying to punish this state and this city. He’s also setting a precedent to unleash troops on Democratic cities.

This morning. LA residents cleaning up their streets of spent gas canisters, cartridges and the other military garbage left behind by ICE. Horrors. What a violent mob!

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

You’re watching a false flag in real time Trump is thirsty to change the subject from this last week He’s destroyed the economy and his biggest donor called him a Pedo He’s invading Los Angeles because he’s lost control

Absolutely this!

Disappearing an elected official.

This is super important: @alannavagianos.bsky.social interviewed a history professor about how authoritarian regimes use pro-natalism to trap women in the home. Really, don't miss this one: www.huffpost.com/entry/gop-pr...
