This is a great illustration of the resource gap between right wing and left wing institutions, where the former can throw money at grievance trolls (and thereby incentivize the industry), while the latter doesn’t have the resources to provide a safety net to people victimized by these grifts.
the only part of the Oklahoma scandal I'm still following is whether anyone so far has given the instructor involved a new job. If it happened the other way ("cancelled by the woke left") she'd already have a six-figure campus speaking tour and a corner office at Heritage.

A small (personal) example of this book’s intellectual dishonesty:
My father-in-law is reading In Covid’s Wake, and excitedly told me he found a passage where I’m quoted. The quote in question is me saying the FBI worked to censor speech on social media.
Huh? When did I say that?!

huh. wonder if any publication in particular might be somewhat responsible for these warped politics.
A new book explores how culture wars have long warped the politics of American education—but it might miss the actual danger facing schools, Jonathan Zimmerman argues:
America’s Schools Are Less Divided Than You Think
Teachers are generally much more concerned about doing right by their students than they are about angering parents and community members.

NEW: By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court blocks Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to assist immigration agents. A majority holds that he likely lacks authority to do so. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
![The Government asked this Court to stay the District Court's order. After the response and reply were filed, JUSTICE BARRETT referred the application to the Court. We directed the parties to file supplemental letter briefs on an issue that the District Court had addressed but the parties' initial briefs had not: the meaning of the term "regular forces" in §12406(3). In its supplemental brief, the Government argues that the term refers to civilian law enforcement officers, such as those employed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the Federal Protective Service.
Respondents, echoing the District Court, maintain that the term refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary.
We conclude that the term "regular forces" in §12406(3) likely refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary. This interpretation means that to call the Guard into active federal service under §12406(3), the President must be "unable" with the regular military "to execute the laws of the United States." Because the statute requires an assessment of the military's ability to execute the laws, it likely applies only where the military could legally execute the laws. Such circumstances are exceptional: Under the Posse Comitatus Act, the military is prohibited from "execut[ing] the laws" "except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress."
18 U. S. C. §1385. So before the President can federalize the Guard under §12406(3), he likely must have statutory or constitutional authority to execute the laws with the regular military and must be "unable" with those forces to perform that function.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6h7b2i6ttw3l4t7pvbvxdith/bafkreiftbhzwvn3vgwhqsi7k2paizvdw4t26ailljvovso3chqupnmj364@jpeg)

I don’t wish cancer on anyone, but let’s not start with the Ben Sasse hagiographies. He was terrible senator and an even worse university president, ripping off the taxpayers for millions of dollars while hiding behind piety.
