@nytimes.com YOU CAN'T SAY CORRUPTION? Listening to NYT The Daily discuss the billions of dollars this dumb man and his kids are making with OUR TAXPAYER dollars and NO ONE CAN SAY THIS IS CORRUPT? We could have healthcare and maternity leave, but instead these buffoons are padding their pockets.
So glad Rep. Kean was able to avail himself of government-funded healthcare and generous leave policies to take care of his health. I wish all Americans could have that.
RJ scholars knew this was coming because women have already been prosecuted. And it has nothing do to with controlling abortion, but everything to do with controlling women.
Another amazing conversation with @SaadiaKhan for Immigrantly podcast about my book Fighting for Control! Check out out the episode in the link below! @uncpress.bsky.social
Had a fantastic conversation with @juliekohler.bsky.social host of White Picket Fence about the history of pronatalism, white demographic decline, nativism, and eugenics. Check it out here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
Xenophobia is not new. We've fought it before, and we'll fight it again. I'll be in conversation with Adam Goodman, historian and author of The Deportation Machine. We'll be in Iowa City on Friday, October 3. Check out the flyer for more details.

For folks interested in learning why this isn't original or new, see research by historians such as Natalia Molina, John McKiernan Gonzalez, and Alexandra Minna Stern.
Thank you @uncpress.bsky.social for your generosity, commitment, and care on this project! Here is a picture of my twin babies at the AHA (my youngest child, now 13 years old, and my book, which is just as old if you count the time from diss to publication!) #AHA2025
Today is officially pub day for this gal right here! 👇🏼 But all I seem to feel is contempt for the many Dems in Congress who will likely sit on their hands or fan the flames of fascism during these next four years (and probably longer).
So many hands come together to make this happen. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💓💕💓
Imagine Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders showing up at a rally with Luigi Mangione. MAGA, trolls on trolls on trolls.
