Possibly unpopular opinion but I think tenure should be revokable when you express bigotry toward the immutable characteristics of part of your student body. Such as saying women are naturally not as good at science and engineering. How many young women students has he harmed since saying that?
2/2 Summers did some disgusting predatory stuff. It's genuinely not clear to me whether it would legitimately be grounds for tenure revocation. But I would hope that folks at Harvard are looking into it.

Bingo
and yet the intensity of reporting around trump and affordability has not reached 1/10000th the intensity it had under biden. the msm is not emphasizing this issue and its because theyre trying to help trump and the gop.

Asswipe
the goal is to change the petition, ideally in a way that protects trump and makes it impossible for people who are in good faith to vote for.

the thing is...johnson lost control of his caucus on this. it's really not clear thune can keep control of his. 1
Mike Johnson says he's talked to Thune & he's "very confident that when this moves forward in the process - if & when it is processed in the Senate, which is no certainty - they will take the time methodically to do what we have not been allowed to do in the House. To amend this discharge petition."

KEEP SHARING YOUR STORIES about increased ACA premiums due to the disappearance of subsidies. The stories clearly are having an impact, they help people feel less helpless, and they create solidarity that leads to action.

Mine went from $395→ $821. What happened for you?

It’s funny how Trump can impose tariffs and bomb boats in the Caribbean without the approval of Congress but he can’t release the Epstein files without their approval?? 🤨

In my town it’s mostly the choir director ran away with the pastor that busts up the churches.
I had extended family I used to see every week that I didn't speak to for a decade after my church split over whether members could own a VCR. And we all lived in the same very small town.
Folks, if you didn’t grow up in a low-church American evangelical/fundamentalist baptist or Bible church you have no idea how easy it is for factions to split a church, excommunicate each other, and how that informs the coming schism in Republican politics.

No matter what the SQUEAKER of the House claims, there is only one person who he is actually protecting!

Guess who that is?

(Hint: HIS name was mentioned 2,020 times in the Epstein files!)

Email just went out on my campus that the Immigration Goons ("federal immigration agents") will be in town (Raleigh).

Inter alia, it says,"International students, faculty and staff should carry evidence of their immigration status with them at all times."

This explains why Trump changed his stance on releasing the files from “No, no, it’s a hoax” & pressuring representatives in the Situation room to not release the files, to “I don’t care, release the files”. There is no way he would agree to it unless his name is no longer in it.
Mark Epstein (Jeffrey’s brother):

“The reason they’re gonna be releasing these things, the reason for the flip is that they’re sanitizing these files. There’s a facility in Winchester, Virginia where they’re scrubbing the files to take Republican names out”

If Trump wanted them released he could do it now. Is he doing it? No. No, he is not.
