Higher education endowments and federal cuts is going to hurt a lot.

#assaultondemocracy documentary is okay, I think I have seen this before. Listening to the folks who stormed the capitol building believe so many lies is frustrating and troubling. They can justify their behavior. #hbo #max

Watching a few Jan 6 documentaries and frankly, anyone who supports Trump after this makes no sense. All Republican officials in Congress and Trump should have been tried for treason. #HBO #MAX #Jan6

I’m so curious how universities and colleges are going to respond to incoming freshmen. This all seems like a huge mess

It feels like Trump and his folks are going after college educated folks. It’s like the revenge of those who didn’t go to college

How are we surviving today? One month in, and how are we surviving?

I teach the Federalist Papers describe that the major check in power is ambition. Everyone wants to get and maintain power. I would have never guessed that Congress would freely give away most of its power.

Elon Musk creating a poll to see if gov employees should keep their jobs is insane times 1000.

Back in the day, I hated the concept of play dates. Now that my son wants to be more active with his friends, I realize why I hate play dates. It’s the parents. We cannot shield our kids from getting their feelings hurt.

Irv Gotti died. Lesson is to live your life in a way that people could say only positive things

Caroline Kennedy went off.

I imagine that Jan 27 should be a crazy day since it is the day that EO allowing localities to relocate refugees to deport them takes into effect. I’m curious how far cities and states will go #executiveorder #trump #refugee

I would love to teach local politics and/or local administration right now because the #CAfires are a good discussion of incorporated vs unincorporated cities, counties, water board, governmental corporations, NGOs, school boards.

Please go watch #bonhoeffer the movie.

Okay, I wanted to stay out of it, but I guess I will start adding videos to my YouTube #scholarlytalkonlife about what is happening. I am just stating what happened and implications on what #trump is doing. It is nonpartisan. Just to inform ONLY

My plan was for my son and I to be at #howarduniversity for church and the inauguration tomorrow….but I am home and I will watch the service.
