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.

Over 2,000 protesters showed up today in The Villages, Florida to say that America has No Kings. And when someone turned the sprinklers on, they stood their ground. And no, not one person was paid to be there. 🎥: @Villages_News

No Kings protest today in Columbus, Ohio. Amazing turnout. The people have had enough!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is not Columbus and is not about the current "No kings" protest. This image was taken in Slovakia in 2020. x.com/ZNeveri/status… spravy.pravda.sk/domace/clanok/…

New York says #NoKings (taken from the terrace of #theskyapartment - the march is headed downtown to Madison Square Park, but Fifth Avenue is so jam-packed it's moving at a snail's pace)

It’s pretty normal to respect a woman’s right to make her own damn health care decisions.
Q: What do you say to suburban women who are worried about abortion rights? Vance: I don’t buy that, I think suburban women care about normal things

Fast academia is toxic and should not be celebrated. It makes people sick and transforms a vocation into something vocational. Write fewer things and enjoy what you write. Focus on novelty over quantity. Learn from and support each other.

Happy International Women’s Day. Be as obstinate and ruthless in your commitment to women’s dignity as misogynists are in their commitment to women’s subordination.
