So proud of this Jewish anti-Zionist organizer who went up to Sheldon Whitehouse and told him that he should be ashamed of himself and his vote.

I wonder how many people at Brown know what Brown lobbies for without hiding behind the right-wing lobbying groups it funds. Right now, their big push is to blow up the law preventing your medical records from being used for research without your consent.

I’m not posting the pictures because they’re hard to look at. But I do hope Senator Jack Reed takes the time to look at them.

Update: Admin has threatened to hold the 41 students arrested in December accountable for the ongoing encampment. Posts made about the encampment are made solely by and on behalf of those encamping, and don’t reflect the opinions/actions of students arrested in previous actions.

Making students homeless and without healthcare the same day, destroying their belongings, banning them from campus, having them arrested for trespassing—this institution has far too much power to do harm to the students for whose safety it’s responsible.

This is what the Columbia campus looks like AFTER the mass arrests. The school has fucked around and it’s about to find out.

if you are a Vice President Campus Life and you think its appropriate to make a student homeless overnight over a protest, you should resign and be barred from ever working with students again

our job as academic workers in this moment is to stand unequivocally and unapologetically with our students.

Conservatives: 'Tom Cotton wasn't actually talking about assaulting people!'

Senator Tom Cotton: 'Here is a video of a man assaulting people. You should do this.'

Oh look. It’s Patriot Act 2.0. It’s worse than the Patriot Act.

USC valedictorian Asna Tabassum joined me on NewsNight tonight after her school cancelled her graduation speech citing “threats.” What she planned to say and what she thinks really happened:

What happened to freedom of speech?

(Both of our R.I. Reps voted for this.)

The Israeli military bombed a playground in Al-Maghazi refugee camp in Gaza, killing at least 11 Palestinian children.

11 children on a playground.

When President Biden & Congress send and fund weapons to Israel, this is what they are enabling.

Today! We sent out a zoom link last night but if you register today, you will receive it just before the talk. Register now to receive it!

BREAKING ‼️
As of 4 AM this morning, Columbia University students have occupied the center of campus, launching our Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
We demand divestment and an end to Columbia’s complicity in genocide.

Oh please. The excuses for not making rich people pay their taxes just get lamer and lamer.

After being stripped in front of their mother & kidnapped by IDF with of all of the males from the school they were sheltering in Khan Yunis months ago—we went months without hearing if they were alive, had no idea where they were or what happened to them— MY COUSINS WERE FINALLY…

Mass protest is foundational to democracy. This must not be allowed to stand.
