Maggie Peters @maggietheprof.bsky.social · 08/06/2025As an LA resident, I can confirm that LA isn’t a war zone. I took my daughter on the metro to see the Angel City game at BMO stadium last night without incident. ICE is the problem. They raided a local mall near me and did random stops. They are the ones causing chaos. Not the people of LA. 8461123
Maggie Peters @maggietheprof.bsky.social · 06/04/2025If you don’t like the tariffs, just remember that Congress could take back their authority over tariffs at anytime. They gave it to the Pres under the RTAA and later bills. They can take it all back. 329230
Maggie Peters @maggietheprof.bsky.social · 10/02/2024You know the best way to fight against Russia’s use of asylum seekers as “hybrid warfare?” Welcome the asylum seekers! In fact create a legal pathway that allows them to come legally. It’s only anti-immigrant sentiment and racism that makes this “warfare”. www.nytimes.com/2024/02/10/w... 100

Maggie Peters @maggietheprof.bsky.social · 10/10/2023Potentially controversial opinion: the US should evacuate anyone who wants to leave Gaza. Why? (1) right thing to do. (2) It denies Hamas human shields. (3) takes away a talking point from Hamas. You know are going to use cases of mothers crying over dead kids to bolster their case for war. 120
