Take 2 minutes & listen to @amymcgrath.bsky.social deliver the truth about Pete Hegseth lies about military standards.

Strong agree

"There is a war on children" A clarion call for action and accountability from Dr. Thaer Ahmad who served in Gaza. He reads the 'will' of a 10-year-old girl who Israel killed, as a way to honour her. open.substack.com/pub/zeteo/p/...

The key problem with what Ezra Klein says here is that he fails – or is unwilling – to grapple with the fundamental reality of the political conflict: The movement that dominates today’s Right fully rejects the very idea of “living here with each other” as equals. That’s their defining position.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social Why platform Jared Polis? Glad you addressed his support for RFK Jr., but he’s on the wrong side of the vaccine issue. Not mandating endangers the health of the public and the most vulnerable. What’s the deal with his RFK Jr. infatuation?

In addition to the corporations trying to destroy the NLRB and 90 years of labor law, don’t forget a university is also helping, just to fight their own faculty and students.

Further research on what I call the "tyranny of choice," what researchers here dub the "double burden of choice" bit.ly/4nEbBUi "School choice" is not only illusory, it should be undesirable. Freedom from being forced to make burdensome choices is better, if we would just make ALL SCHOOLS desirable

This is sickening

The Double Burden of School Choice USC Rossier Professor Huriya Jabbar et al find that “Despite policy efforts to improve equity and access in school choice, families dealt with uncertainty and waiting periods and ultimately felt disempowered by the process.” doi.org/10.1177/2332...

@schiff.senate.gov couldn’t have said it better myself.

"Women are PIs on 58% of the canceled grants, although they are PIs on only 34% of all active NSF grants. Similarly, Blacks are PIs on 17% of the terminated grants, although they make only 4% of the total pool. Hispanic PIs and those with disabilities were twice as likely to lose a grant."

@gelliottmorris.com Peak Democratic performance

“…public outcry and support will be essential. Are you ready to march for the most despised members of our society? Will you call your representatives about those who are imprisoned?”

"Last Sunday, Moss came to the rescue of NMAAHC by announcing that Trinity “is placing the museum in our annual budget.” He then asked parishioners to join him by donating $25 to the museum, the price of a basic membership, to show their faith."
