Um, maybe Greg Abbott is so desperate that he’s trying to do some vote fraud. But I doubt he’ll get much traction in…Brooklyn!

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.

More #nokings from #Brooklyn. Huge turnout and lots of supportive honks from the street

No Kings in Prospect Park, Brooklyn #nokings #earlyvote #bluetsunami

Put differently: lower numbers of enrollments or majors may be a reason why humanities departments are denied resources, but I am not convinced that they would get any more resources in the way of tenure lines/investment if they increased enrollments or majors.

(NBC News) — It is now the least rewarding time to be a worker in the U.S. economy since the government started keeping track. @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...

A bunch of cops cheering at a political rally — in uniform — as the president and AG endorse a candidate and attack their political opponents is not normal. And it is not okay.

This president is loathsome.

FLASH: Justice Dept seeks to dismiss Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool criminal case against former Olympian David Hearn Trump Admin acknowledges: "Damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in June 2026 was the result of flawed installation by the contractor"

I miss the great American tradition of not thinking about the president constantly.

Hey, @nytimes.com. You know that narcissistic sociopaths don’t grieve, right?

WE WILL STOP FASCISM. 🇺🇸

Thread. Rapists running a coercive sex ring AND transmitting CSAM AND inducing other men to abuse women and girls in turn. The alleged behavior is legitimately monstrous and it’s a HUGE deal that the Trump regime is undermining law enforcement to help/free them. Epstein in real time

An incredible euphemism here for “the government is doing illegal discrimination”

We can't go numb to this. We can't let this become normal.

“But the bigger problem is how much of the media of ‘the left’ is dominated by men who appear to have no understanding of sexual abuse or intimate partner violence, but do have a pretty hefty sexist streak that they either aren’t aware of or don’t care to remedy.” YES @juliedicaro.bsky.social

Have @warren.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov or the DNC pulled their Platner endorsements yet?

Quite a week for the AI-generated fake book group and publicist emails. Six yesterday, and three this morning…!?!

Honored to have my essay about the history and shortcomings of birthright citizenship in the @inquirer.com’s new #MadebyHistory section. share.inquirer.com/IWUtRj

@nytimes.com please just stop this.

Is there a book you've always wanted to write, but you haven't jumped in? Then this week's episode is for you. I talked with @profbrooks.bsky.social about her brilliant new book, THE MOYS OF NEW YORK AND SHANGHAI (@ucpress.bsky.social), and how she brought its characters to life. 🗃️ #skystorians

Hahahaha. They tried to show Trump on the Jumbotron during the anthem si people wouldn’t boo but the boos were IMMEDIATELY AND SO LOUD, they came off the image after a second.

I love the ceremonial booing of Trump. That keeps America great.

My crankiest old man take is that referring to all art/entertainment/journalism/criticism/comedy/advertising as “content” helped pave the way for broad-ish acceptance of AI slop.

This is what leadership looks like. Thank you, Senator @kim.senate.gov

Hey, @governor.ny.gov, it’s time to have a real conversation about creative ways to withhold our blue state taxes.

Not under-babied. Happily childless.

There are people still living who fought — and watched their compatriots be murdered — for the passage of this act and to attempt to democratize America. To see it completed felled in the span of their OWN lifetime is just absolutely devastating.

We must understand the racist political rhetoric, the erasure and attacks on Black history, the reinstalling of Confederate names and monuments, all go hand-in-hand as the Court and Congress legitimize the taking of political rights and the end of multiracial democracy itself.

I have no idea why @repdangoldman.bsky.social responds to constituent mail this way (“an outside party organization”), but if I contact my congressperson through @indivisible.org, its not because I’m politically naive or uninformed.

As part of our #OAH26 content, we're pleased to present a special excerpt from THE MOYS OF NEW YORK AND SHANGHAI with commentary from author Charlotte Brooks:

I'm not too proud to beg, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov

We should make it clear that if this happens everyone involved will live under the threat of war crimes prosecutions for the rest of their lives

There is no excuse for downplaying or eliding the insanity of Trump’s morning post. It is the most unhinged public comment by a president in US history and should be reported and remarked upon as such.

I don't want to hear any more "what will the dems do about this" media takes. I want to hear the "why won't any republicans stop this?" media takes, bc just a handful of them could literally do so at any time, if they chose to.

Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings

Over eight million Americans took to the streets today, which makes No Kings 3 the biggest single day of protest in the history of our country. #NoKings

Sandra Wong, the great granddaughter of Wong Kim Ark, is preparing to march at the #NoKings Rally in San Francisco. Today is the 128th Anniversary of the SCOTUS decision affirming birthright citizenship.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

There is absolutely no bottom. @cnn.com www.cnn.com/2026/03/13/p...

The better plan to lower gas prices is to END THE WAR.
