I may be a literature teacher, but I am equally an advocate for queer and trans kids. I view their safety and their ability to thrive as a mission in life. All people of conscience with children in their lives must fight harder than ever for these kids. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”
The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

Everybody who is able should be out there on the scene and recording EVERYTHING. Document it now so that you can't later be gaslit about what happened on the streets by Trump and co.

Incredibly chaotic scene Los Angeles as LAPD is pushing forward a skirmish line and violently arresting anti-ICE protesters. You can also hear me grunt when police shoot me in the abdomen with some kind of projectile.

I lived under Erdogan's AKP for 6 years, and I saw Trump's similarities to Erdogan from Day 1. Trump aspires to authoritarianism. He craves absolute power. Don't give it to him.

Meiselas: Trump earlier today echoed what his border czar, Tom Homan, said—that they want you arrested.

Newsom: Was that said by Erdoğan? Who was that said by? Was that some dictator? Some authoritarian from the history books? No—that was said by the president of the United States.

This is the craziest shit I've ever seen. The Marines??

The Pentagon is expected to formally deploy about 700 Marines to Los Angeles in the coming hours to help National Guard members respond to immigration protests.

This is the most important story happening right now. I saw an interview with a protester who was asked about being tear-gassed: "I tasted tear gas. It tasted like fascism."

I'm not Catholic by any means, but I've long been a fan of Pope Francis. He was a reformer, a visionary, and truly loved people. I got to see him when he visited my neighborhood in Istanbul years ago, right around the corner from my flat - what a moment! He will be missed. Rest in peace. 🙏
nbcnews.com NBC News @nbcnews.com · Apr 21
From working as a bouncer at a Buenos Aires nightclub to presiding over the Vatican, the path Pope Francis forged as the leader of the Roman Catholic Church was as unlikely as it was unprecedented.
Pope Francis leaves a legacy as a Catholic Church reformer
The leader of the world’s 1 billion Roman Catholics addressed past scandals and embraced migrants, the poor and gay and lesbian faithful. Some wished he’d gone further.

Respect to Harvard for leading the way. 👏👏👏
A grain of hope in these dark times.

Harvard did that forcefully on Monday in a way that injected energy into other universities across the country fearful of the president’s wrath, rejecting the Trump administration’s demands on hiring, admissions and curriculum.
Harvard’s Decision to Resist Trump Is ‘of Momentous Significance’ (Gift Article)
But a fight with the nation’s oldest, richest and most elite university is a battle that President Trump and his powerful aide, Stephen Miller, want to have.

Maybe that belief is starting to erode? Maybe there's starting to be some real class consciousness? That could be the only hope out of this mess.

This video is for all US citizens who are currently overwhelmed by Trump's more than 200 executive orders.

THIS should be retweeted to the MAX.

I never saw a more helpful video.

(It's about two minutes long. It's worth a lot.)
