Time is up. I gave Speaker Mike Johnson two days to swear in Adelita Grijalva. Arizona's 7th congressional district 813,000 Arizonans are now being taxed without representation. I have lawyers downstairs right now drafting litigation.

Brown University joined MIT in rejecting President Trump’s "compact" that would erode nondiscrimination protections for students and faculty, campus free speech, and the integrity of medical research.

Every college and university must follow suit and defend academic freedom from government abuse.

Brown University rejects Trump administration compact

President Christina Paxson P’19 P’MD’20 said that the compact would “restrict academic freedom and undermine the autonomy of Brown’s governance.”

And that is why nonviolent resistence is so effective on this regime. They have no concept of any other way to win than brute force, so have been stymied by millions refusing to participate. By boycotts angering his wealthy corporate friends.

The harm is real: Black workers pushed out of jobs, HBCUs stripped of resources, Black mothers and fathers denied healthcare, and neighborhoods left without protection from floods, asthma, or poisoned water.
