I wrote about the warped framing of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as disruptive, norm-shattering and savvy and how it contrasts with the invisibility of Yoho’s opportunism and ambition: thecut.com/2020/07/aoc-sp…

How did the Democratic Party respond to Elizabeth Warren doing this to Bloomberg? They invited him to the convention to speak longer than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Listen carefully to what she accused him of. Does anything fucking matter anymore? Anything? Some of you stand for nothing. Weak.

No one gets to complain about primary challenges again. 🤗 So DCCC, when can we expect you to reverse your blacklist policy against primary orgs? Because between this & lack of care around Ilhan Omar’s challenger, it seems like less a policy and more a cherry-picking activity.

No, not RBG. What a colossal loss. What a lioness. She taught us all how to fight, how to fight cancer, how to fight for justice, how to fight for our lives.

“What's the difference between a bookkeeper in the garment district and a Supreme Court justice? One generation.” - forever my favorite quote from #RBG, a true maverick, a hero of Jewish history, women's history, American history, and eternally a symbol of dignity and strength.

It is with deep sadness that we share that Tuffy II passed away in his sleep last night. Our thoughts are with the Downey family, Tuffy II left a lasting impact on the NC State community.

USA: A "progressive" nation where an Anne Frank memorial can be vandalized with swastikas and Emmett Till's memorial can be shot up so many times it has to be replaced with one that's bulletproof. When COVID's gone, the virus of white supremacy will remain. I need to hug my kid.

I believe the Republican members of Congress who have incited this domestic terror attack through their attempts to overturn the election must face consequences. They have broken their sacred Oath of Office. I will be introducing a resolution calling for their expulsion.

Hi Blair LM Kelley, PhD - just when I felt nostalgic for NCSU, I read your book Right to Ride and will get to present on it in my seminar. It's one of my favorite reads of my grad career. Can't wait for the next one!

1. Who cares what school someone went to? Entire generations of working class kids were encouraged to go into more debt under the guise of elitism. This is wrong. 2. Nowhere does it say we must trade-off early childhood education for student loan forgiveness. We can have both.
