[Down with US Empire... Yankee Go Home @jaybeware]

The unwillingness of liberals to make genocide a redline under a Democratic administration - and to normalize every version of war crime - gave a green light to Trump to escalate to threatening entire civilizations with nuclear holocausts

[Momodou ✊🏿 @MomodouTaal]

Professor @bikrumsinghgill reminded me: Trump can existentially threaten an entire civilisation. And the fact that the US is not experiencing of a crisis of legitimacy in this moment. With no mass mobilisation and direct action against the sitting p*dophile and administration, is due to the years of demonisation and delegitimisation of The Islamic Republic. For every academic and leftist social commentator who said “regime” and “supported the people” you contributed to this. You have a direct hand in reproducing the logic that now allows for the president to threaten mass extinction of a people. We won’t forget.

@_ShamGod Whew that reunion is going to be a hot mess 😂😂. Wendy is about to put on her best Black radical, justice reform advocate cosplay.

@_charbii I’m still here 😂

@theescholarjawn Aye! Philly jawn to Philly jawn, welcome and can’t wait to see what you do!

It’s “politically damaging” because both parties are extremely pro-police and worked together to demonize that very valid message.

@jbrous41 Dems are not going to even try this. They are too afraid to do anything. Plus, I think they want the budget to pass because they think it will help them in ‘26 and ‘28. And they hold as much contempt for the public as Repubs look at how many voted for the “Genius” act

[Dr. CBS @drcbs_]

Imperial overreach in full effect.

Too much “he didn’t ask”
Not enough “we don’t want WW3”

@JGarciaHallett @MelissaENoel Congrats to both of you!!! We need to get a collab together 😉. Also my students loved your book!

[Katorah Williams, PhD @KatorahW]

@kaelyn_sanders I did that this semester. I used popular culture to teach critical criminology. We talked about Drake, twitch streamers, movies, video games, and music. Their final was a paper analyzing a movie with a critical lens. It was a great class.

@jbrous41 It’s really bad! I try to emphasize that they need these skills since most of my students want to be lawyers buts it’s a lost battle. They don’t want to read or write and don’t think they should have to. Higher ed is collapsing much faster than I expected.

[Katorah Williams, PhD @KatorahW]

@jbrous41 The things my students have turned in to me this semester have been wild. They struggled to form thesis statements and didn’t even hide when they used AI to write their papers. SMH

@kaelyn_sanders Congrats!!!!! They are incredibly lucky to have you (also don’t forget about the research idea I pitched you once you are settled)

FREE POLITICAL PRISONER MAHMOUD KHALIL!

Last weekend, Palestinian American organizer Mahmoud Khalil was abducted by ICE and disappeared. We must mobilize and unite all progressive forces to secure Mahmoud Khalil’s immediate release and stop this McCarthy style repression!

[Katorah Williams, PhD @KatorahW]

@JGarciaHallett Congrats! My students are reading your book in my critical criminology class this semester.

[Katorah Williams, PhD @KatorahW]

@kaelyn_sanders Congrats!!!!!

[Katorah Williams, PhD @KatorahW]

@kaelyn_sanders Ayyyeee! Congrats! I’m sure you will do great.
