This is going to be hugely destabilizing in the middle east and Africa - funding disappearing overnight. This is not how a first world government behaves. Countries That Received the Most Foreign Aid From the U.S. in 2023:
Ukraine ($17.2B) Israel ($3.3B) Jordan ($1.7B) Egypt ($1.5B)

A critical part of a longer poem by Dean Thomas Ellis: You can’t sink a city that’s already sunken can’t terrify a town crawling with ghosts can’t unsettle a populace who came to be unsettled. Who the fuck do you think you are who the fuck do you think we are? We are New Orleans...

Yup, that’s what a spanking looks like.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "There has been no oppression for the white man in this country ... it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us, people of color on this side of the aisle, that y'all are the ones being oppressed."

This is sad. UNT had such a wonderfully engaging and welcoming approach to diversity when we were looking at colleges. You could feel the American dream happening on this campus. Horrible to strip a university of one of its great strengths.
The University of North Texas has removed the words "race," "equity" and "gender" from several dozen course titles and descriptions to comply with Texas new anti-DEI law.

One of the goals of authoritarian leaders is to create chaos so that people disengage from politics. Rest if you must, but paying attention is will be important to safeguarding our democracy. Proposed recess appointments and private background checks is a dangerous start.

Excited to see Reputation finish in the money/third after a VERY educational outing. LOTS thrown at her, but she was calm and professional through it all. Jockey remarked on how long our girl's stride is. We'll see if they try her in longer races now, and maybe on turf.
