Protestors met JD Vance in Vermont when he went to vacation there today. This is a good one:

Aside from being ass-kissers (assume that's hyphenated), GOP Congresspeople and Cabinet appointees serve as cowardly propogandists too. What quality of self are they preserving?

A liberal education is so important, not a neo-liberal education, which has temporary utility but fails to initiate the learner in critical discoursal evaluations of aesthetics, ethics and power, that Foucauldian triad--all important to our ability to self-govern justly.

Well, my expression of disdain for Trump and Vance's bullly shit-show has me blocked on Twitter.

The Trump administration is "hugely problematic because it has a lot of fraud, wasye, and abuse".

Love this guy, but what's with the hands? The hand movement drives me nuts. Is he unable to talk without all that kinesthetic noise? youtu.be/F1dX0y6JKU4?...

I worry that Trump will have him killed, though if that were to happen, there goes Trump's leverage over Putin.

The meeting on SA is a business meeting, not peace talks. Maybe piece talks: "I want this piece of Ukraine. You can have that piece. Lets leave a few crumbs for Oban."

At the foot of this story you get to the nitty gritty. The 'debt package' involves tax-payers paying £3bn plus 9.75% interest to hedge funds which already own Thames Water. It's a blatant wealth transfer. The 'complex argument' is actually simple: nationalise. www.dumptheguardian.com/business/202...

Pretty sure 90% of the posts on X are Russian bots. You can't know if anyone there is telling the truth. I don't even trust that those I agree with are truthful. Tower of babble.

If your argument is "sure, a terrible modern event has a parallel in the 1920s and 30s but don't worry we turned out just fine", might I suggest reading about the 1940s.

I have just finished reading Danielle Sassoon’s memorandum in its entirety. It is a tour de force. Its correctness is obvious. She’s an American hero. Emil Bove ought to be investigated by his state’s bar association for discipline and possible disbarment, at least.

My friend said she and her mom agreed not to speak Spanish to each other in public anymore. Oh man, that hit hard. I’m so sorry this is who we’ve become.

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this. Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

11,000 Guardi for more than 5 million people seems inadequate. About 500 people per Garda. Maybe we should be allocated one at birth so they can keep their eyes on us as we go forth. www.rte.ie/news/2024/12...
