I invite Caitlin, and anyone else who believes the bullshit in this essay, to come visit one of my classes at Davidson College. What's interesting is that The Atlantic keeps publishing pieces like this but won't publish "the other side" from folks like me. A well-kept secret:

Very cool work from Nate Sawtell's lab at Columbia. scientificamerican.com/article/these-…

The scientists' warning story.

The last few years have made it abundantly clear to me that ageism and ableism remain socially acceptable forms of discrimination across the political spectrum

I wrote about the crackdown on campus protests. Universities like Columbia, Cornell and Emory trade on Vietnam Era protests to market themselves to student activists. Protest is part of their brand and sales pitch. Now they're punishing students for taking them at their word. 🧵

Segregation was legal. Slavery was legal. Don't use legality as a guide to morality.

Let me open the door.

I’ve seen at least four Wesley Bell ads about him being a progressive. As a campaign almost fully funded by republicans, it’s hilarious. But also a lie I took time to outline all the ways he promised and he lied in his first race and his record as prosecutor. Thread 🧵

Two years ago, Cori Bush and I got our environmental justice mapping program passed in the Inflation Reduction Act. And our works far from done. We need to send my partner in climate justice back to Congress.

This is it, St. Louis! The polls are open, and now is the time for you to use your power at the ballot box. If you need a ride to the polls, call 314-562-0411. If something doesn’t feel right while voting, call 314-329-4463. St. Louis, go vote!

It’s Election Day in St. Louis! Make sure to get out and vote for Cori Bush if you live in Congressional District 1. St. Louis is not for sale and we will not let someone bought by AIPAC, republican, anti abortion donors that has broken campaign promises buy this seat!

Cori Bush is a champion. St. Louis knows it. History will remember all she did for all of us. Progress is not measured by wins alone. Its measured by the people who never quit and I know that no matter the results of this election, Cori will never quit being a champion.

Here's the story no one is telling you about Tim Walz: Until just a few years ago, he was a bona fide climate criminal. Today, he is celebrated as a climate champion. Here's what happened🧵

Ten years ago today eighteen year old #MikeBrown was murdered by a #Ferguson police officer, a police officer not brought to trial by the prosecutor who St. Louis County just elected to Congress cnn.com/2024/08/09/us/…

10 years ago, 18-year-old Mike Brown was killed by a Ferguson police officer. He should still be here today. In his name, we will never stop fighting for justice, accountability, and an end to police brutality. Rest in power, MB2.
