The 19 richest U.S. households saw a $1 trillion wealth increase in 2024, a rise that exceeds the size of Switzerland’s economy. These 19 households now control $2.6 trillion in wealth — almost as much wealth as the bottom 50% of American households. Tax the rich.

Since we are discoursing about academics it’s also probably good for everyone to remember that academics are some of the first people that authoritarians target Also feeling forced to leave your home country is hard because it is no longer safe for you is hard, not fun

honestly a little surprised that this is getting full scandal treatment from the press and i think one reason is that it is secretive. high ranking officials were hiding something and the (idiotic) aphorism that the "cover-up is worse than the crime" has kicked the scandal instinct into gear.
