This is incredibly bad, dangerous, and counterproductive. Responsible leaders should be doing everything they can to deescalate right now. This is throwing fuel on the fire, making everyone on college campuses less safe, and doing Republicans' work for them.

The fossil fuel industry has lied about their role in climate change for far too long.

Sheldon Whitehouse calls a hearing to hold Big Oil companies and their enablers accountable for their deception.

When I went to my first conference in the Netherlands they gave me my own bike. Big part of why I went there for a few years.

No, Mr. Netanyahu. It is not antisemitic or pro-Hamas to point out that in a little over six months your extremist government has killed 34,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 77,000 – 70% of whom are women and children.

You will not distract us from this immoral war.

Mr. Netanyahu, antisemitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to millions.

Do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government.

Congratulations everyone. You’ve given the GOP exactly what they wanted & needed. An excuse to pretend to care about antisemitism, despite a caucus filled with raging white supremacists who attend conferences with a Holocaust denier & a candidate who hosts that Holocaust denier.

UPDATE: Every single door of Citibank has been blocked. Bankers locked outside can’t get in.

This is what happens when your bank kills people across the globe by pouring $333 billion into oil, gas and coal.

Thousands of bankers stranded outside. Arrests starting.

We’re bringing the crisis to their doorstep.

Earlier this month I shared, before a house committee, the story of Ashley, a 31-yr old app-based health care worker in PA. We met earlier this year via research w/ Fairwork. For 2 yrs, Ashley has worked in nursing homes for ShiftKey, which allows her to bid on shifts. 🧵

As I document in my new book (and in a forthcoming piece for the NYRB), Uber has been at the forefront of this decade-long and nation-wide campaign to minimize federal, state, and municipal regulation, especially around labor standards.

'What do you say to a young progressive or an Arab-American who says to you, 'I just can't vote for Biden again after what he's enabled in Gaza.'?
