This is truly incredible. Shakespeare speaking to RIGHT NOW—on the “mountainish” inhumanity of punishing and casting out strangers from your country.

One of the best things that people like Susan Tincher (and like me) can do is absorb the violence of the state that is directed at our more vulnerable neighbors, and then be righteously pissed off about it. The case is Tincher v. Noem. (Apologies - video cuts off at 3:00 on Bsky).

Younger people won't believe this, but during the Second World War, Disney put out cartoons about how it was your patriotic duty to stand up to fascists, even noting that we'd each have to take a financial hit if we wanted to win that struggle. No, really!

The right sets the terms of our political discourse in so many ways, one of which is the idea that there isn't enough "debate" and "free speech" on campus. We need to push back on this. The truth is (speaking for myself as a history prof), I don't really emphasize debate much in my classes/

If one of these people is your senator, it is incredibly important that you call them today. Urge them to vote NO on the Senate budget bill that would make most Americans poorer to give billionaires a tax cut they don't even need.

Iowa: Sen. Ernst
Maine: Sen. Collins
Missouri: Sen. Hawley
North Carolina: Sen. Tillis
Ohio: Sen. Husted
Utah: Sen. Curtis
West Virginia: Sen. Capito

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

As promised on my last post, I'm going to be using my YouTube channel a LOT from now on. Here -- speaking as an expert on violence in Congress -- I offer some thoughts on yesterday's attack on Senator Padilla. youtu.be/02mx5FRVp5I

Clearest proof yet that the Trump admin uses "DEI" to mean "nonwhite people doing something impressive and getting credit." Navajo Code Talkers made a big difference in WWII. The Axis had more trouble translating their language than cracking codes. And it's not like the Navajo owed the US anything.

New, from me: Trump is whitewashing American history, removing not just people, but also the stories, images, and values to anyone who does not conform to his impoverished vision of America. Here is a partial inventory. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whitewashi...

Gilded Age perspective 1/ The 19th-century spoils system was bad, feeding corruption & incompetence. But Trump's plot to replace nonpartisan civil servants with loyalists is starkly different. The old system aimed at rewarding supporters. But Trump is breaking laws & destroying government capacity.
