BREAKING : Israel is dropping bombs on tents full of civilians in Rafah right now.

Entire Palestinian families are being massacred, but Western media wants us to be concerned about students peacefully protesting against this genocide on US campuses.

The hits keep coming for the Dems. Trying to make the election as close as possible!

What does the term 'folk music' even mean anymore? 'Uses acoustic guitars on most tracks'? Is that distinguishable from 'Americana'?

(this is a great album, tho Two Hands is better!)

Law faculty everywhere: you should sign this letter

Even if it were true that outside agitators were coming in and radicalizing students against Israel, what business is that of the NYPD?

I was at City College Tuesday night, reporting for the The New York Times

Two sets of protesters were arrested that night.

The first set was a crowd outside City College’s locked gates. NYPD arrested this group on two separate occasions that evening at different locations.

Very interesting potential unintended consequence of imposing such extensive duties of care on universities--and assuming calling police is 'reasonable'

Surely this won't last, but this is...admirably restrained by the PPD? OTOH, PPD is less willing to interrupt a protest of Penn students than Penn's administration?

THIS IS THE ENERGY RIGHT HERE.

Alabama Mercedes workers are sick of executives getting massive raises while they get meager increases.

So they’re casting union ballots in mid-May!!

Help pump up the energy by sharing their great video! #UnionsForAll 👇👇

There's plenty of uncertainty on these kinds of questions, but the best evidence we have points clearly to 'wrongly.' Dems would've done worse without BLM 2020 protests.

Let me know when he starts campaigning for voters rather than donors

This was the protester who was struck by officers with a non lethal bullet to the face.

Genuinely could not be happier to have a group of incredible law students involved with the encampments at Columbia, CUNY, Yale, and NYU talking abt their experiences, their demands, and the LPE of it all on the blog today!

A UCLA editor who was attacked while covering the protests “believed her identity as a journalist would have prevented her from being assaulted.

“Instead, it made her a target.”

Jeff Sharlet Dartmouth 🌲 Those cops were brutal to me. I promise I did absolutely nothing wrong. I was standing with a line of women faculty in the their 60s to 80s trying to protect our students. I have now been banned from the campus where I have taught for 34 years.

Roll Tide

The dollar is losing its reserve status at a faster pace than generally accepted as many analysts have failed to account for last year’s exchange rate moves. Who would have imagined that sanctions would lead to that?

You can see security running away as assaults and violence broke out.
