Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

This is just a matter of course in Canadian politics frankly it is WILD to me that the democrats seemingly have absolutely no organization or structure to their caucus. How do they expect to be heard in the media when they don't have any spokespeople or core message or party discipline at all?

Since the 90s governments have pushed universities to run more like big business. This led to high executive pay, dissatisfied 'customers', mutinous staff, disbanding socially useful but 'unprofitable' divisions, and lavish spending on white elephant prestige projects. So, in fairness, it worked.

This whole thread - but also, and despite my own deep cynicism, I have still been surprised by all the powerful institutions complying in advance. My uni is striking all mentions of diversity. The last 18mos has shown admins are generally unwilling to stand for academic freedom with their faculty.

I’m so tired of them. I’m tired of their lies. I’m tired of their disgusting amorality. I’m tired of their faces, their voices, their smirks. I’m tired of their inability to say — let alone do — even one thing remotely kind or humble or appropriate, ever. So tired.

Convince me I’m wrong: The rich twat currently raging through the federal government has no legal right to do so. People could ignore him, refuse to follow his “orders” - he has no recourse because he isn’t in charge. Except people want to say yes to this destruction—and so they’ve opened the door.
