If you signed the new press policy, the university you graduated from (assuming you graduated) should immediately revoke your degree because it’s patently obvious you didn’t earn the degree not learn about journalism.

One of the best cross-examinations I've heard started with: "Sir, can you describe what you're apologizing for?"
That seems appropriate here.

Larry Summers tells @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social
he’s stepping back from all public commitments in light of his messages with Epstein, saying he is “deeply ashamed” and hopes “to rebuild trust and repair relationships.”
He will continue teaching.

In 2028 I will vote for whoever will send Stephen Miller to The Hague.
79-year-old Paul Bojerski was born to Polish parents in a WWII German refugee camp. His family legally emigrated to the U.S. when he was 5.
He’s been taken by ICE in Florida.

I despair of the Democratic Party in Texas. They continue to try and run to the center and pretend to be the GOP without the fascism.
That never works. Given the choice between GOP Lite and the real GOP, voters will pick the real thing, while the progressive voters and donors will tune out.

The more right coded, the less I care, so I pay zero attention to NASCAR.
The fan a sport draws can limit its growth.
Remember when NASCAR hit its popularity ceiling? 2005. 9/11, Bush, Iraq. Bubba Chic was in.
To grow now maybe try being less disgusting?

Do ministers ever think about the message their rhetoric on "handouts" and "golden tickets" for migrants sends about whether this is a government for people like us?
