The idea that @UCBerkeley has no choice but to build on People's Park fails to consider the vast personal estates of its decision-makers. If they're genuinely dedicated, why not donate their Berkeley Hills mansions for university use? A true test of commitment. šŸ¤·šŸ½ #PeoplesPark ā€“ at Berkeley, CA

@PontifexMay 25
Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/eā€¦

Berkeley is confronting reports of abuse of power in the United Farm Workers movement. Huerta said she stayed silent to protect the movement. No movement should survive if it depends on silence and suffering. Power means responsibility. Protect people. berkeleyside.org/2026/03/18/ā€¦

Berkeley lionized Cesar Chavez. Now itā€™s reevaluating

Cesar Chavez Park and other local landmarks are named after the late labor rights leader, recently accused of sexual assault.

The U.S. is facing a blizzard, polar vortex, heat dome, and atmospheric river at the same time. That kind of weather reflects a dangerously global climate. We need resilience and real climate action to protect our communities and preparing for whatā€™s ahead.

Western Powers are not happy with how Ishowspeed has shown the World the beauty of Africa they have been deliberately hiding. The boy enjoyed himself.

I say this with all the love in my chest and the fierceness of my heart. IShowSpeed is the greatest revolutionary of our time. He is uniting the entire African diaspora and is taking the world with him. Fuck ICE, I am on team IShowSpeed!

There is something almost comic about it now. Decades of coups, dictators on the CIA payroll, death squads trained in American academies, chemical weapons, depleted uranium, black sites, forever wars, and people still say, maybe this time it is really about human rights. At some point, this is not about being fooled. It is about wanting to be on the side of the one who gets to fool everyone else.

I was briefed this morning on the U.S. military capture of Venezuelan President NicolĆ”s Maduro and his wife, as well as their planned imprisonment in federal custody here in New York City. Unilaterally attacking a sovereign nation is an act of war and a violation of federal and international law. This blatant pursuit of regime change doesnā€™t just affect those abroad, it directly impacts New Yorkers, including tens of thousands of Venezuelans who call this city home. My focus is their safety and the safety of every New Yorker, and my administration will continue to monitor the situation and issue relevant guidance.

šŸšØ BREAKING: The Pentagon has just confiscated the badges of nearly every major media organization in the United States, barring their access, after they refused to sign on to Pete Hegseth's new security rules to guard sensitive information. Reporters were seen leaving. "Today, the Defense Department confiscated the badges of the Pentagon reporters from virtually every major media organization in America. It did this because reporters would not sign onto a new media policy over its implicit threat of criminalizing national security reporting and exposing those who sign it to potential prosecution," the Pentagon Press Association said

I donā€™t care if theyā€™re US citizens or not, nobody should be dragged out of bed in the middle of the night and have their things thrown in the hallway by armed thugs as their children scream. Thatā€™s evil work and the people who do it are evil.

ICE is a domestic terror organization. At Americaā€™s Auschwitz (Alagator Alcatraz) and Dachau (CECOT), detainees go missingā€”disappeared through unlawful force. ICE agents act as the Sturmabteilung, stormtroopers using violence to intimidate and coerce for political goals.

Monica and her 2 young children fled to my office for safety after she was assaulted by this @ICEgov agent in an egregious act of excessive force. This is unacceptable conduct from this ICE agent. @Sec_Noem must take appropriate disciplinary action and implement measures to prevent this from happening again.

China is deeply disappointed by the result of today's vote. The conflict in Gaza has been dragging on for nearly two years, causing an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe. Time and again, the Security Council has attempted to take actions, only to be forcefully blocked by the United States. How many more innocent lives must be lost before a ceasefire can be achieved in Gaza? How many more tragedies will it take before humanitarian aid can flow unimpeded? How much longer do we have to wait before the Security Council fulfills its responsibilities?

Gov. Gavin Newsom is not so different from President Donald Trump when it comes to his mental health and homelessness policy. In many ways, they're mirrors of each other with Newsom often beating Trump to the punch on horrifying policy to criminalize camping, increase sweeps, and force the unhoused and people with disabilities into locked settings. This policy DOES NOT WORK, no matter which side of the aisle it comes from. #DisabilityRightsCA #Newsom #Trump #SB27 #CAREcourt #Sweeps #WashingtonDC #LosAngeles #California #Homelessness #MentalHealth
