If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Interesting time for universities like mine to proudly declare their political neutrality. As the saying goes, you can pretend not to care about politics, but politics certainly cares about you. Now more than ever, universities need backbone—and leaders willing to stand up for them.

Among other things, Trump’s latest unconstitutional move will pause research on cures for childhood cancer, close homeless shelters, halt food assistance, reduce safety from domestic violence, and shut down suicide hotlines. People will die. Is this what you “price of eggs” voters wanted?

There is only one reason Trump pulled the security off Pompeo and Bolton…to put them in danger for “crossing him.” To send a message to anyone else who would oppose. Both have active death threats from Iran. All to intimidate. This is the opposite of a real man of God. This is evil

At a press avail, President Trump was asked about why he would ask NATO members to up their contribution to 5% of GDP when the US doesn't do that, and he said, "They're not protecting us, we're protecting them." The only time NATO invoked its mutual defense pact was after 9/11, to protect the US.
