Renee Nicole Good was murdered by ICE. She wasn’t just killed, she was murdered.
The right was already trying to vilify her before we even knew her name. But I’m just going to say it…
They’re going to have a much harder time doing that this time.
She’s not Brown.
She’s not Black.
She’s white.

Today I just looked at my grades and I ended up with 4.0’s in the classes so my GPA is now 3.916.
This fall semester in my 2nd year as a PhD was extremely challenging but I’m really grateful I made it through.
Now that I am home. It’s time to rest & prepare for 2026.

In today's lecture I explained to the students that when Barry Goldwater dismissed the Eisenhower administration as a "dime store New Deal," he was just calling it a cheap knockoff.
"I guess today he'd call it the Temu New Deal," I said, which actually got laughs.
