Regarding Trump’s name change:
Unfortunately, when you look at the Pentagon’s role in Iraq, Iran, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Grenada, Panama, Nicaragua, El Salvador, etc., Department of War may indeed be more accurate than Department of Defense.

It's been three years since our historic resolution passed. Come CELEBRATE with us the decriminalization of natural psychedelics in SF. As medicalized access continues to struggle and is costly, let's continue to dream, plan, and work towards creating equitable access for all. Let's connect 🍄🌈🦋

Here's the Trump admin's fascist demand letter to Harvard:

I was concerned Harvard was going to surrender, but Garber just responded: An unequivocal NO, even if it means losing $9 billion in research grants.
Here's the Trump admin's fascist demand letter to Harvard:

I was concerned Harvard was going to surrender, but Garber just responded: An unequivocal NO, even if it means losing $9 billion in research grants.
![In recent weeks, the government has threatened its partnerships with several universities, including Harvard, over accusations of antisemitism on our campuses. These partnerships are among the most productive and beneficial in American history. For the government to retreat from these partnerships now risks not only the health and well-being of millions of individuals but also the economic security and vitality of our nation.
Late Friday night, the administration issued an updated and expanded list of demands, warning that Harvard must comply if we intend to "maintain [our] financial relationship with the federal government." It makes clear that the intention is not to work with us to address antisemitism in a cooperative and constructive manner.
I encourage you to read the letter to gain a fuller understanding of the unprecedented demands being made by the federal government to control the Harvard community. They include requirements to "audit" the viewpoints of our student body, faculty, staff, and to
"reduc[e] the power" of certain students, faculty, and administrators targeted because of their ideological views. We have informed the administration through our legal counsel that we will not accept their proposed agreement. The University will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights.
The administration's prescription goes beyond the power of the federal government. It violates Harvard's First Amendment rights and exceeds the statutory limits of the government's authority under Title VI. And it threatens our values as a private institution devoted to the pursuit, production, and dissemination of knowledge. No government— regardless of which party is in power-should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ja5soujdv5a735xhr3cmohdv/bafkreiapil3y7dli2vpwas7wjgnibw6kypw567vclbdbzqicw6yuunteyy@jpeg)
