    I won a green card through the #Diversity lottery & was just called *trash* by @POTUS. Since then Ive completed a PhD at @Harvard, became a fellow at @BrookingsInst & paid LOTS of taxes. I know many others who contribute a lot to this country. Oh well, perspectives...

    Pobreza en España? No puede ser. Si yo he visto McDonalds en Madrid... Os juro... Dígalo ahí @CaracasChron !
    Uno de cada 3 niños españoles vive bajo riesgo de pobreza. Desde el inicio de la crisis van casi 500.000 desahucios. ¿Algún concierto "no político" de A. Sanz para apoyar al pueblo español? Por cierto, tocar para blanquear una intervención militar es hacer política, de la peor...

    No me gusta criticar, pero la verdad es qué decepción la oposición venezolana. El viernes dijeron que el lunes anunciaban acciones. El lunes dijeron que el jueves nos cuentan. Hoy jueves, convocan a un cabildo abierto mañana viernes. Qué van a decir mañana? Que el lunes twittean?

    In '15 this image shocked us. A 3yr old Syrian boy refugee was drowned to death. We thought the World wouldnt let this happen again, but it did. Yesterday 19 Venezuelans were found dead in the ocean after their boat was turned away by Trinidad & Tobago. Where's the World?

    Oh, and I might add, I do academic research on the economic benefits of migration. And there are MANY. So, Donald, c'mon...

    Please repeat with me: Asking for asylum is not illegal Asking for asylum is not illegal Asking for asylum is not illegal #TrumpAddress

    The Trump admin has now decided to *deport* (yes, deport) thousands of foreign students—the most skilled and talented young men and women of the world—already in the US holders of a valid visa. If that’s not America attempting suicide, please explain what is it.

    Noticed something weird with the brakes this morning. Took the car to the shop to check. They found a brake cable cut (intentionally). Not sure when/where exactly happened, whether at Brown or not, but smells like a hate crime, following antisemitic threats I've received lately.

    About last night. Wow! Even if 20 years later than originally planned. It's never too late. #GNRinDC
