@capitalweather For someone who has a Friday evening flight out of DCA, time to consider moving to Thursday? Or will that be just as bad?

And where are all the columnists who have spent the last decade writing about the war on free speech on campuses?!

[Kate Londen @KateLonden]

This is an outrageous decision from my alma mater, @USC. Let Asna speak!

[philip lewis @Phil_Lewis_]

USC announced that valedictorian Asna Tabassum’s commencement speech has been canceled, stating it was “necessary to maintain the safety of our campus and students”

‘I am surprised that my own university has abandoned me,’ Tabassum said in a statement

@MaintenancePod @RottenInDenmark @yrfatfriend regret to inform you that cannibal hamsters are real. They regularly eat their own babies. After being traumatized by this with my childhood hamster the vet told us to give her eggs since she may not have been getting enough protein…

@somethingbuffy Murder in Small Town X was a reality show where people tried to solve a fake murder. The winner was a NY firefighter who died in 9/11 one week after the finale aired. Never met anyone who remembers this bizarre piece of culture.

@IHEPTweets Building a strong workforce with a diverse set of skills means we are competitive globally, and a stronger, more engaged, more educated citizens #TodaysVoicesTues

@IHEPTweets Higher Ed isn’t just four year degrees! Almost everything requires some training after high school. Apprenticeships can open a ton of career options! #TodaysVoicesTues

[Kate Londen @KateLonden]

@IHEPTweets Higher education can be a window to learning so much, inside and outside the classroom. For someone at a small town, just meeting people from around the world was transformative! #TodaysVoicesTues

@YoungInvincible @POTUS The PSLF waiver is for folks in certain public service jobs, the debt cancellation application is for anyone making $125k or less! #TodaysVoicesTues

🧵NEW: We updated our Financial Health of Young America report! Even before the pandemic, racial wealth gaps among young adults were not improving. COVID-19 made things much worse.

Here's what we found: https://t.co/hnSlvMOc1I #FHYA22

BREAKING: @POTUS just signed the #InflationReductionAct into law — that's a BFD!

We're ready for his next BFD: cancelling at least $50,000 of student debt per borrower, without income caps. Urge him to deliver permanent relief: https://t.co/5d0xuD19bA #CancelStudentDebt

They had two months heads up and the White House - and congressional Dems - have fucking nothing! Why wasn’t new legislations to protect and expand abortion rights intro’d by Friday afternoon? And where are the bills for paid leave and universal child care to call some R bluffs!

[Alex Thompson @AlexThomp]

Biden is unlikely to take up the bold steps to protect women's right to have an abortion that Democratic lawmakers have called for in recent days, reports @nanditab1 and @TrevorNews

Reminder that Republicans have been passing blatantly unconstitutional abortion bans for years before Roe fell. They never once worried about whether those “radical moves” would be polarizing.

[Alex Thompson @AlexThomp]

"Biden and officials are concerned that more radical moves would be politically polarizing ahead of November's midterm elections, undermine public trust in institutions like the Supreme Court or lack strong legal footing, sources inside and outside the White House say."

The Red River Women's Clinic still needs funds to continue its relocation from Fargo, ND across the river to Moorhead, MN. Some people drive 6 hours to get abortion care here — if there's no capacity, they have to drive another 4 to the Twin Cities.

NO MATTER WHAT those dorks @ the Supreme Court say about abortion — you (yes, YOU!) can get abortion pills mailed to you no matter where you live.

Mifepristone + Misoprostol 💊 💊

@AidAccessUSA does “advanced provision” which means you don’t have to be pregnant to get them!

“In January, a 37-year-old woman carrying twins died after one of her fetuses had died and doctors did not remove it for seven days. The family accused the doctors of waiting for fear of harming the other fetus and being subject to possible prosecution.” https://t.co/yyZj6AUkYf
