GOP are losing their mind over this, but there’s precedent - including their own. Courts ordered Trump to fully restore DACA. They ignored it w/ Republican support. GOP operate in complete contempt for the law until they’re in a position to shred Constitutional & human rights.

AOC: I believe that The Biden Administration should ignore this ruling. The courts rely on the legitimacy of their rulings and what they are currently doing is engaging in an unprecedented erosion of their legitimacy

The tragedy of #Auschwitz shows only the painful end of a long process. It's essential to remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred slowly grew from human ideas, words, prejudice, through legal exclusion, to dehumanisation, violence and murder. It's a warning.

Extreme disconnection from nature looks like people bagging up their leaves in the autumn and sending them to a landfill rather than letting them naturally decompose so they can return nutrients back into the soil.

If you give me two more Democratic senators, and Democrats keep the House, I promise you we will codify Roe v. Wade. We will once again make Roe the law of the land. We will once again protect a woman’s right to choose.

Even during the Holocaust, the darkest time, we still celebrated #RoshHashana—Jewish new year. On this beautiful holiday we think about the precious ones we lost as we look to the future. My thoughts are with oppressed people fighting for human rights everywhere #ShanaTovah🍎🍯

President Biden's announcement today about student loan debt relief has upset some people who believe it's unfair. I acknowledge that resentment, and also, while we're on the subject of unfairness, I have some thoughts for your consideration. (thread)

Make no mistake, the vast, vast majority of people who are angrily complaining about student debt cancellation have no idea what real people's lives are like. I have a competitive advantage in econ commentary because I personally know people over 30 who make less than 75k a year

In August 1865, Jourdon Anderson, a freedman living in Dayton, OH, addressed a letter to his former enslaver, Col. Patrick H. Anderson, in Tennessee. He wrote in response to a request from Patrick to return to work on the farm where he was enslaved just a year prior. 🧵 1/10

THREAD: “What’s the difference between this and Watergate?” Donald Trump raged in a statement Monday night after FBI agents. Well, as a Watergate and FBI historian, four things stand out to me:
