ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety. My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

Wild to see Kirk remembered as a “civil debater” when his record is littered with slurs, lies, and calls for violence. Coates is right if we ignore his own words, we’re just rehearsing the same historical amnesia that once sanitized Confederates. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/c...

We can condemn Kirk’s murder and still critique his politics. Saying criticism is what killed him is disingenuous it confuses speech with violence and scapegoats millions of people who had nothing to do with it.

Someone pulled the trigger not “all liberals.” Turning a tragedy into proof of some culture war is dishonest and dangerous. Violence is wrong, but so is weaponizing grief to demonize millions.

This isn’t a personnel spat. It’s a stress test for the Constitution. Do courts still “say what the law is,” or does the president get to be judge, jury, and executioner of vague laws? If it’s the latter, separation of powers is dead letter. theconversation.com/how-trumps-d...

The Learning Pit James Nottingham's metaphor of The Learning Pit illustrates the struggle before "getting it."
The Learning Pit illustration: a journey from left to right; an individual faces a learning challenge represented by a large pit they need to reach the other side of. Having fallen down into the pit, the challenge seems more difficult than first anticipated. As the picture becomes clearer they discover what they need to climb up the other side to a point where they can look back down at the pit having mastered the challenge.
