WaPo: the mood inside the Pentagon is "intense and paranoid"
Pentagon leaders worry the US will expend its air defense stockpiles, and the conflict will "spiral out of control"
This is precisely what Pentagon Joint Chiefs Chair Dan Caine warned of last week

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

Attn faculty & university admin: “The ban is morphing from something that happens at isolated diplomatic posts to something that reaches deep into America’s campuses, workplaces, and homes. This is a legal terrain where broader challenges can be mounted.”

The new Muslim Ban is coming into effect on March 20th; it is boring, it is sneaky, it is worse than the last one by far, and it is trying to make the Muslim Ban normal forever. My latest in @thenation

To be clear: @elonmusk & @realDonaldTrump are destroying America’s medical research infrastructure. It’s not hyperbole to say that we’ve all lost years of life expectancy. They are setting back research on cancer and heart disease for tax cuts! @AFTunion @AAUP @uaw @HigherEdLabor

My latest piece for @thenation on Clinton and the DLC’s problematic legacy for the Democratic Party

TBH part of me wants to run as far as I can from academia. But when THE Angela Davis says “We need you! You definitely need you!” well, I know I better stay and fight. (Masks removed just for the photo)
