“I agree with Goldman that this matter should be put to city voters, and that the city should not be bullied by Major League Baseball into rushing into something foolhardy to meet MLB's deadline.” richmond.com/opinion/column…
The exemption is discretionary. They don’t have to deploy it. So why would @lashrecseaird use it when Moomaw already publicized the public record?

"Law enforcement from the UMW and Fredericksburg City police departments, as well as state police, were on campus this evening to carry out the arrests." fxbgadvance.substack.com/p/breaking-new…
Virginia Tech making a statement. Thank you to the students, staff, and faculty calling for an end to the genocide and the liberation of occupied people.

BREAKING: UMW students arrested after re-erecting encampment ift.tt/XpPvh8L
We stand firmly in solidarity with the Mary Washington students who were arrested today for peacefully demonstrating against the murder of thousands of innocent lives in Gaza. We support all students’ right to peacefully dissent against injustice without the threat of arrest.
🚨 ARRESTS BEING MADE AT UMW 🚨 Despite following every requirement made by admin, cops have moved in and are arresting student protestors at the university of Mary Washington.
Live footage from Fredericksburg. I am being told by student protesters that they've been warned that they will be arrested if they do not leave the encampment. I am deeply troubled that @MaryWash is resorting to such heavy-handed tactics to break up a peaceful protest.
@BrianReese_ For more on this story, check out my full interview with @BrianReese_ to learn about how he started covering the York County School Board and its connection to the larger conservative movement. 13/13 roundthetriangle.com/p/the-rightwin…
@BrianReese_ April 22, 2024: The school board unexpectedly reverses its decision on contracting with the right-wing School Board Member Alliance for policy writing, opting instead to rely solely on the nonpartisan Virginia School Boards Association. 12/13 wavy.com/news/local-new…
@BrianReese_ April 2024: York County residents create petition calling for the resignation of the three rightwing school board members. “We denounce the conduct of the new school board members and ask that they step down for the good of our community.” 11/13 wavy.com/news/local-new…

Important topics discussed this weekend at @vtcsom Global Health Club’s Medicine During Times of Crisis: Gaza panel. These panelists saw the devastation in Gaza first-hand & spoke to challenges medical professionals face while trying to provide care with little to no resources.
“I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. & what is it America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom & justice have not been met.…” -MLK
We stand firmly in solidarity with the Mary Washington students who were arrested today for peacefully demonstrating against the murder of thousands of innocent lives in Gaza. We support all students’ right to peacefully dissent against injustice without the threat of arrest.
“Brothers and sisters and students at City College, it is not enough to demand ceasefire. How about this? Make your demand cease occupation!” says still incarcerated Black Panther and journalist Mumia Abu-Jamal from a timed prison call that was amplified from someone’s phone.
Mountain Valley Pipeline signed a Consent Agreement w/ @PHMSA_DOT that PROHIBITS it from going into service until ALL parts of the agreement are fulfilled. Now MVP is asking @FERC to IGNORE this agreement even though they ADMIT they haven't yet complied. They must be stopped!
.@SecretaryPete your agency @PHMSA_DOT recognizes Mountain Valley Pipeline poses risks to the public+environment. The Consent Agreement EXPLICITLY requires that ALL terms MUST be complied with along the entire 303 mile route b4 ANY PORTION is allowed to be placed in service.
Happening now at Monroe Park in Richmond is Clayfest. A small benefit concert for Palestine.
The First Amendment is dying in plain sight. Silence = complicity.
Hundreds showed up to protest @washu's ties to @Boeing amid the war in Gaza today. Now, as @erjlee documents, mass arrests have begun by campus and local police. Stay tuned to @stlpublicradio for more soon.
Did anyone else get this weird text survey asking how you feel about the city selling Richmond Gas Works to an investor-owned company? 👀
Leonard Leo ally Tim Busch opines that the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution may preclude states from allowing abortions & implies that they may take it to court, presumably meaning SCOTUS, which he calls the “Leo Court” (See post 2). 1/

Update: students are being arrested by Virginia State Police for peacefully protesting. Absolutely shameful @MaryWash.
Live footage from Fredericksburg. I am being told by student protesters that they've been warned that they will be arrested if they do not leave the encampment. I am deeply troubled that @MaryWash is resorting to such heavy-handed tactics to break up a peaceful protest.
Absolutely fucked. Zero reason to be arresting these students @MaryWash - there was no hate speech, no threat of violence. Just some folks exercising their first amendment rights. @ACLUVA @ACLU
Update: students are being arrested by Virginia State Police for peacefully protesting. Absolutely shameful @MaryWash.

BREAKING: After 203 days, the Hawai'i state* legislature has joined the call for a #CeasefireNOW. Hawai'i becomes the first state* in the U.S. to do so.
