Cover reveal. It's about how & why colonies/states controlled international & domestic migration until 1888, why in the late 19th c the feds took over, & what it was like for politically disfavored groups to live under that arrangement of power. You can't understand voluntary migration history 1/

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country.

The reason you go scorched-earth on this is the same reason we should have gone scorched-earth on impoundment; you can't stop it from happening, but you absolutely need to stop it from becoming a normal part of politics. You have to draw a line.
They didn’t even bother to ask for an AUMF, impeachment

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

It contains the sentence "The Center for Academic Renewal may need some academic renewal of its own."
Pleased to announce that due to this Martin Center claptrap, I have now drafted my first angry op-ed of the calendar year. This is a new record for me, courtesy of me being on a coast-to-coast plane ride and having given up my AirPods to my kid.
Hopefully it gets accepted and you will see it soon.🤞

People are right to roll their eyes at this—another stupid and malicious effort to undermine universities. But don’t rest your opposition on the idea that scores “don’t predict outcomes”. Insofar as any measure is used to select a population, you have conditioned on it so it won’t predict outcomes.

I had a dream about a musical called "Faculty Meeting" and weirdly it was good?
The first number is about someone objecting to approving the minutes without unanimous consent but not offering a correction. This is how we meet The Parliamentarian, our narrator.
