Here's what NO ONE asked for: turning the IRS into ICE. Maybe that’s the plan—make the IRS too busy trying to deport folks so they can’t go after billionaire tax cheats like Trump. Elites don't care who gets hurt as long as they can steal from the rest of us. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

100% to this. It’s been clear to anyone watching closely that there is a multi-pronged attack on U.S. universities & the playbooks we are using to address this attack are not up to the challenge of the moment. (That said, some have been better than others, and at least UW let my team fight.)

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is on its face a violation the equal protection of the laws.
