That’s a lot of Virginia flips on that list!
Thought we should check in on the total list of legislative flips during Trump 2.0. The tally so far (including tonight):

Republicans: 0 flips

Twice this week I’ve explained that UVA Health employees don’t have things like winter storm hazard pay because in reaction to Black UVA Health employees organizing for better working conditions, in 1947 the General Assembly made collective bargaining illegal for public sector employees in Virginia.

If only Erik the Red, exiled from Iceland, had named Greenland as something else to sound less inviting. A name that would discourage people from trying to settle there😕

If you want to jerk a knot in their chain, you can cancel your Hilton mebership. Call +1-855-672-1138 option 7 and speak to a representative. It took me 3 tries (first 2 hung up on me) but the third, sighed and after a long pause said” .…okay, I understand.”

It looks like Bluesky is already saying everything that needs to be said about S2:E9 of #Landman, Tyler Sheridan going for all the stereotypes & college life at TCU. But thinking the Admissions Office has anything to do with Resident Life issues & the Office of Student Affairs? It's preposterous!

The NYT has numbers on the cuts at the Dept of Education.
Almost 800 people have been cut at Federal Student Aid. That's a lot larger than I expected. And IES has been gutted.
