Must be nice to have a net worth of hundreds of millions and not be affected by Trump destroying the economy while we wait for Republicans to step up.
Mark Warner on Republicans: "I do think we're getting close to them stepping up, but the problem is going to be, how much structural damage is going to be done before my Republican friends find their voice and voice publicly what they're already saying privately?"

"Government efforts to control the core academic decision making of universities, as the Trump administration has demanded be done with Harvard, are in profound conflict with America’s traditions," Lee Bollinger, former president of Columbia, writes:
Universities Deserve Special Standing
A good life and a good society require an ongoing search for understanding and knowledge.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

"Harvard appears to have learned a lesson from the Trump administration's tangle with another Ivy League school—just not the lesson the government intended," Rose Horowitch writes:
What Harvard Learned From Columbia’s Mistake
If cooperation and even capitulation don’t get you anywhere, why give in to the Trump administration’s demands?

In Utah, life coaching has emerged as an unregulated alternative to therapy.

Researchers analyzed online ads for ~220 life coaches and found that about 40% say they specialize in mental health — some even claiming to “conquer” clients’ conditions.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The reality is that Salesmanship is the differentiation between the two parties.

The Dems couldn't sell dollar bills for 50c

Trump has found his audience and can sell them dollar bills for $5

When everything is a story the algorithm flashes at you as you scroll, you better be selling fast
It is truly about who tells a better story — or really a story people want to hear and makes them see what they believe rather than believe what they see.
More jobs have been created under Biden than during the full terms of Trump, Obama, or Bush 43. @danprimack.bsky.social www.axios.com/2025/01/10/i...
