The attacks on DEI are a pretext for a much more radical agenda of reversing the gains of the civil rights movement, an objective the Trump administration is pursuing with zeal. A Great Resegregation. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

It wasn’t really hard to see the trajectory Callard was on. Her shtick seems always to have been rationalization of her superiority and transcendence—a kind of Nietzsche without the humor or chops.

An excellent deep dive intp the dats behind FIRE's "campus free speech" rankings. You won't be surprised to learn they are bullshit, riddled with errors and willful misrepresentions. This is not a serious organization and we would stop treating it as such. www.chronicle.com/article/the-...

Hey @chatterton.bsky.social Rufo, among many other things, made up evidence that Haitians were eating people's pets. Now some 500,000 Haitians who were here legally are likely going to get deported. Glad he criticized you in "good faith" though. Enjoy staying on a platform run by the administration

In this clip, the president is publicly threatening and trying to extort a sitting US Governor. The Governor, correctly, challenges the president’s claim of authority. The interaction serves as: - an example of egregiously overstepping federal executive authority. - how to respond to bullying.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

If I’m understanding this correctly, very few middle or low income households would receive this. Only those who have liabilities. So that family of four who now gets refundable credits? Sorry, no extra cash. That’s going to Chet, the used car salesman. And of course this ignores it’d be illegal.

State governments should cut off all state and local cooperation with the FBI, and they should do it immediately. No law requires it, the Constitution fully empowers you to not even return their calls. But there is no legitimate purpose now in treating them as an acceptable partner for anything.
