correct if wrong, but if they retained final say on Fulbright awards…isn’t this cowardly & craven? shouldn’t they fight to give awards to those they’d planned to & ignore interference? “The board’s mandate gives it final approval over program awards, which it has retained without interference[…]”

just amazing that journalists remain on Twitter when this is allowed to spread. cooked brains. no ethics. senior leadership completely bought into Trumpism. take your pick; they all suck.

This is very true. But it means (while we should be resolved) that there are people that are going to die and other that will be injured to prove out Stephen Miller’s bad bets

This new Travel Ban is 💯 the ‘John Roberts Court Travel Ban’ They made this all possible. By letting the Trump team know how to craft a ban.

I hate/pity shitty dumb undecided folks, too.But it’s the media that’s created that voter, & Trump & the past 10+ years of post-modern shit Specifically, it’s conservative billionaires (along w/ their buddies in govt, from Reagan forward) who’ve consolidated power & messaging so fucking obvious?

this sidebar chatbot “voice” comment, by Warzel, is one predictable, but worst possible, reaction for centrist media-pod droids. he’s pretending to have a deeply-thought-out reason to oppose what’s going on, but he don’t have one. he supports what’s going on, contingent on what others are saying

Hughes logging into Bluesky after 4 months to offer critical support to a writer who has made very questionable choices Hughes has memo from NYT brass, I suppose, Bluesky is not worth listening to (just as public overall not worth listening to except Twitter conservatives and left-hating centrists)

🙁 opaque, (perhaps deftly) shallow, & (ok understandably) self-promoting Tanenhaus piece regarding Trump’s connections to Buckley. Feints to be deeply historically, but doesn’t really make much sense Sam buries in 1000s of words what Buckley actually did & how terrible GOP policies are

This is not at all responsive to the issue & the fear raised by the student in the OP. This is a queenly tooting of one’s own horn, and not listening to what’s being expressed.

“Gop is corrupt, on drugs, racist, sexist, transphobic, and hypocritical” doesn’t sound like a bad starting position. But “GOP kills people financially every single day” might even be bette
