20. p.s. Just b/c it's cool: Here's the diary entry for September 18, 1787, for James McHenry, a delegate to the Constitutional Convention from Maryland: Note that he underlined, when he wrote it, the last part of 'A republic replied the Doctor, if you can keep it.'

19. The historian's amicus brief, to which Trump's lawyers were responding, is here. It retraces widespread agreement about holding president's accountable-- during the Constitutional Convention, ratifying conventions, and in legal treatises afterwards:

Jewish Voice for Peace I am tired of the NYT and university admins trying to stoke animus. Students of all faiths (& of no religious faith) are majoring in genocide studies, learning together to take on the American empire, & demanding that “never again” means never again for ANYONE. Frame accordingly!

Epigraph to Orwell's Roses, because it's such a brilliant reminder that warnings are not prophesies of doom: their premise is that we are deciding the future with what we do or fail to do in the present. That we have choices.

This protest at Columbia in Hindi has been posted across platforms as a “sinister” display. Here is the actual translation of what she’s saying:

“What do we want?” (Freedom)
“What do we want?” (Freedom)
“Palestine’s” (Freedom)
“Palestine’s” (Freedom)
“We will grab it” (Freedom)…

We are approaching a point of no return. The United States must continue to airdrop humanitarian aid. And Israel MUST open the borders and allow the UN to deliver supplies in sufficient quantities. Failure to do so should result in the immediate halt of all military aid.

Today I urge President Biden to implement Section 620I of the Foreign Assistance Act and make it clear to Israel that, if aid access to Gaza is not immediately opened up, he will impose consequences under this law and stop military assistance to Israel.

“I call for an end to the war and I demand that the world provide humanitarian support to the children of the Gaza Strip.”

Sumayya reminds me of myself at 11 years old, sharing my experience of living under Taliban’s terrorism for the world to know.

So not only was the main Hunter Biden 'scandal' made up, it seems to have been made up by Russian agents.

Meanwhile, Trump says Russia can do 'whatever the hell they want' to NATO allies and MAGA members of Congress are blocking Ukraine aid.

Is the GOP Trump's party or Putin's?

This would result in truly creative and important work outside the echo chambers of the privileged. And I know R1 folks who would enthusiastically support this. Not those whose prestige depends upon their position, of course...

A wealth tax in Massachusetts raised $1.5 billion for free school lunches and more by taxing millionaires.

A flat tax in Kansas will deliver a $875,000 windfall tax cut to billionaire Charles Koch, the richest man in Kansas.

Inequality is a policy choice.

This is Charles Best and Frederick Banting. They were Canadian scientists that won the Nobel Prize for the discovery of insulin in 1923.

Banting was 32 when he received the Nobel Prize and he chose to share half the prize money with Best who was his assistant and just 24 years…

Joe Manchin (along with Sinema & the GOP) helped put five million children back into poverty by blocking the extension of the expanded Child Tax Credit.

Five. Million.

Remember this whenever you hear him preach about the virtues of the so-called 'middle.'

.Rashida Tlaib, like so many Americans right now, is calling us to embody the best of humanity. Her grace, courage, and moral clarity has little parallel in this moment.

History will remember her as a leader who never lost sight of the freedom of her people, or any other.
