We need to start planning and acting now with the recognition that Trump will very soon control the police state for which Biden and the Democratic Party are currently providing additional funds, white-supremacist recruits, militarized infrastructure, and ideological support.

THREAD. Last night, the White House quietly sent out a press release notifying reporters that Biden would be seeking $37 billion for, among other things, 100,000 new cops. This is one of the most dangerous developments imaginable.

It is irresponsible for members of the media to uncritically participate in fear-mongering about “masked protesters” without acknowledging that the reason student protesters are wearing masks is to protect their identity in the face well-funded doxxing and harassment campaigns.

Happy World Press Freedom Day!

It is said that how your state or country treats the press acts a litmus test for democracy. Press freedom is your freedom! 💪

don’t really see anyone talking about this but: arrestees at CUNY were charged with *felonies* while arrestees at Columbia were charged with misdemeanors. nobody should be charged with anything but it is a travesty that poorer & racialized students bear the brunt of this struggle

When you’re trying to stop antisemitism and end up banning the Chair of Jewish Studies from your Ivy League campus for protecting her students.

If I was a Democratic politician I would prefer not to blow up my coalition for Benjamin Netanyahu but as a lowly voter I think it best to leave these decisions to the consulting class

The 'Freedom Caucus' in the Missouri Senate is currently threatening to close rural hospitals if they aren't allowed to defund cancer and STI screenings for poor women.

Now, read that again.

Weird I thought crime was rapant and the police were stretched too thin but theres suddenly capacity to divert hundreds of cops away from all that because students are camping on the quad

In the newsletter right now:

A Florida agency has issued rules they claim will ensure women get life-saving abortions.

The truth? The guidelines could force docs to give women c-sections instead of abortions

Useful thread. AIPAC is most likely seeding a lot of this legislation as loyalty tests for Congress to check if they should get more money or if AIPAC should try to run against them.
