#UkraineWar I'm thrilled that Speaker Johnson finally did the right thing, shutting down MAGA Putin loyalists and unblocking Ukraine military funding (better late than never ?). Thank you, Mike!
But military funding doesn't mean that the war stops. Au contraire. Massive…
#CampusProtests University leadership across US must establish clear, enforceable guidelines that allows for peaceful protest without racism, antisemitism and violence. Academic leaders seem totally unprepared when it comes to real world crisis management. Dealing with these…
#UkraineWarNews @timothysnyder
Russian missiles aimed at civilian targets in Chernihiv, Ukraine killed at least 14 people, including 2 children and injured dozens of others. That's the city that UCAP.help assisted by providing 6 refurbished school buses after…

#Landmines Another grave and growing danger for Ukraine's children as Russian' troops have planted land mines in gardens and residential communities. They've booby trapped toys and play areas in areas they have occupied, now amounting to almost 1/3 of Ukraine's territory.…
#Trump2024 Remember this: Donald Trump's first term was an unmitigated disaster for science and public health. Every agency dealing with science - from the EPA to the CDC - was under siege. Truth and facts were public enemies, intentionally polluted by conspiracies, politics and…

#Internetaccess So much cruelty is happening to the most vulnerable of us while we are deeply distracted by Trump-driven dysfunctional politics and the least productive Congress in memory. One small but critical example: Federal programs helping low-income Americans afford basic…
#kidnapped Current estimates are that about 30,000 Ukrainian children have been kidnapped by Russian troops & brought back to Russia for indoctrination and/or adoption by Russian families. There is so much unspeakable tragedy happening to civilians in Ukraine that this nightmare…
#MoscowAttack I was mortified to hear the news of how many young people were killed and injured by this act of terror at
a concert.
But I'm also thinking about the ongoing Russian attacks on Ukraine civilians.
And the 10/7 Hamas attack in Israel where so many young folks were…
#UkraineRussiaWar We're now into year 3 of a brutal war. The Congress MUST pass the Ukraine aid bill which they need to push back Russians. Meanwhile, we are working to help children get through this nightmare. UCAP.help just finished helping repair a school that…
#childrenandguns All wars, from Ukraine, to Gaza, to Sudan & Haiti inevitably kill, injure & traumatize children. Wars destroy normalcy & future opportunity. Recall the sage advice of Naomi Klein: '...side with the child over the gun every time, no matter whose gun and no matter…
#Conspiracy Conspiracies gone wild! One of the weirdest realities of Trump's presence in the national conversation is that he's normalized public crazy. In last few hours I have seen interviews with people who said that people who received COVID vaccines are genetically changed…
#UkraineWar Russia has massively ramped up weapons and ammo manufacturing to an unbelievable 250,000 artillery shells/month. Meanwhile, the extraordinary Ukrainian military is being forced to severely ration ammo and will be overwhelmed if we don't help immediately. That's why I…
