Delayed making my own announcement in the face of (1) strike and (2) invasion, but there’s still an hour plus left of World Book Day, so it’s time to say that _The Crimean War and its Afterlife_ is out in the world! cambridge.org/core/books/cri…

🚨NEW: Judge Amy Berman Jackson has blocked Elon Musk and Donald Trump from dismantling the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
RETWEET to thank Judge Jackson for standing up for our democracy!

Both domestic and international antisemitism are dangerously rising & our institutions have abandoned diaspora Jewry to support the Israeli state committing genocide

🚨NEW: Elon Musk has called for U.S. District Court Judge Paul Engelmayer to be impeached for blocking Musk from access to Americans’ private data. This is a dangerous attack on our checks and balances.
RETWEET if you stand with Judge Engelmayer against Musk!

President Carter will lie in state at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th—a noble man honored on the anniversary of a day when the people's house was disgraced by the actions of a far less noble man.
America’s contradictions laid bare.

I was a teenage girl when Matt Gaetz decided it was appropriate to body shame and belittle me as a sitting member of Congress and now I get to sit and watch him be nominated as Attorney General of the United States.
Absolutely shameful

Share if you’ve already voted for our historic Statewide ticket or if you plan to tomorrow! Let’s win this, Indiana!
Polls are from 6 AM - 6 PM local time tomorrow!

A year (!) of writing in one tweet: Terror is always wrong. Revenge is not a strategy. A child is a child is a child. Release all hostages now. Cease fire. Let the aid flow. Neither the Israelis nor the Palestinians are leaving. Without hope for a shared future this does not end.

Gen X, pour one out.
It has been a week.
Dr. Ruth, Richard Simmons, and Shannen Doherty.
Fam, it's true, babes. We are getting older, our cohort is starting to die, our elders are steadily dying, too.
We are the adults in the room. Embrace it. Model new ways of being.
Hmmm . . .

I liked Biden. But right now I’m feeling nothing but rage. His decision to run was profoundly selfish. That selfishness has put my son’s future in danger. There are dozens of Dem leaders who could beat Trump. We need an open convention.
Lara Kriegel retweeted
I wish Biden would reflect on this debate performance and then announce his decision to withdraw from the race, throwing the choice of Democratic nominee to the convention. Someone like @gretchenwhitmer or @SherrodBrown or @SecRaimondo could still jump in and beat Trump.

Don’t protest religious events at synagogues. Protesting real estate events esp to sell land in an occupied territory even when held in a synagogue is fine.

I am one of the only members of Congress to cosponsor the ceasefire reso since Day 1. I consistently vote NO on military budgets, including further weapons to Israeli gov. I think Netanyahu is a war criminal. AIPAC targets me.
AND I find antisemitism disgusting. Deal with it.

BREAKING: Monroe Co prosecutor declines to file charges against those arrested at IU protests, calls IU actions "constitutionally dubious." Reporting by @fez_irl

We do not ignore Israeli hostages because their lives don't matter. They do.
We center the call for a ceasefire because Gaza is where the relentless, unbearable violence is happening. This is what the global movement of solidarity for Gaza is screaming about.

It’s come to this…
“Can you call the philosophy department and tell them I’ve been arrested?”
🤯
WATCH: Among those arrested today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University.
I’ve asked for a comment from Emory on this arrest, no word yet.
This video provided to us by an #Emory PHD student. You can hear him in this video. @ATLNewsFirst

Whatever disappointments you have about your work in 2023, you did better than the leaders at West Virginia University. I hope their screaming-headline-level failures are remembered in 2024 and long after.
