Does “the child follows the condition of the mother” - Felonious Trump’s newest abhorrent birthright citizenship proposal - ring any bells? Any??????

Let’s ignore the DOJ. The Idiot Bondi has now proclaimed that recruiting students from “majority minority” regions will be investigated, while recruiting in “majority majority” regions is just fine. Let the next set of lawsuits against this racist administration commence.

Donald Trump can’t remember the name of the president of Apple, the most valuable corporation in the United States, but he can remember the name of an underage girl Jeffery Epstein trafficked from Mar-a-Lago many years ago. 🤔

I still think we will prevail. The arc is long and uneven but it bends toward justice. It must bend toward justice. And stronger guardrails for that justice for all.

Despite the utterly nonsensical bloviating of this absolutely racist administration, the Columbia settlement agreement makes clear that Trump’s minions have been purposefully conflating DEI and affirmative action. DEI is not AA, not unlawful, and the agreement makes that clear.

I hope more people who are outraged by ICE raids are also furious about how much our industries rely on undocumented labor. I want more people to question why migrant laborers can’t attain the immigration status they want and deserve, rather than continue to ask them to “do it legally.”

I’m thinking today about all the women doing DEI work in universities, and how all of our canceled grants and shuttered initiatives means that not only are we losing the time we’ve already put in, we’re now even more behind our male peers who stayed focused on their research.

Alameda County voted to give reparations to the residents of Russell City who were harassed and burned out of their homes. My dad grew up there and my grandfather built their home on property he owned there and lost to virulent racism. It’s 1.1 million but it should be so much more.

If you needed more proof that “anti-DEI” is just blatant discrimination: anti-DEI in the DOD has resulted in EVERY woman removed from senior leadership in the armed forces. Pro -DEI in the DOD did no equivalent thing to white men. Anti -DEI is plain old American discrimination.

If my taxes don’t pave my roads or fix my bridges or keep my schools open 5 days a week or pay local teachers a living wage or help keep my hospital open or help my neighbor’s kid eat lunch or fund public television or my healthcare… Why the f’ck should I pay taxes?

Another proof that DEI efforts were necessary. When white men make all the decisions, the only people they see as capable are other white men.

There are white-skinned immigrants who have stayed in the US illegally beyond their visa expiration. DHS has no interest in finding them. This is not about legalized immigration.

Just a reminder that their “concern” about the true horror that is antisemitism is not real. It is one form of bigotry being used to enact another form: anti-Black racism, America’s oldest systemic project. Greg Washington @georgemasonu.bsky.social is the latest target. Resist and sue these racists!

This project has been negatively impacted by the Trump administration: BECAUSE it focuses on the enslaved, its grants have been terminated-basically, again, discrimination based on race, which is against the law. Please consider a donation to keep it alive during this white nationalist regime

SCOTUS explicitly stated in its 2023 SFFA decision that aspiring to diversity is commendable. Just do it in a race neutral way. That Felonious’ administration had decided that aspirations are illegal is simply laughable and shows how viciously racist and incompetent they are. Harmeet Dhillon can rot
