Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ.

Good fucking morning to everyone except every MAGA official who’s covering up for Donald Trump’s involvement in Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes.
They knew about these emails that implicate Trump. They knew he was at the house, on the plane, and that he spent time with the victims.
THEY KNEW.

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.

Co-sign. This is an excellent segment on the grievance troll Bari Weiss and her misguided bullshit journalism and academic ventures.
This is such a thorough take down of Bari Weiss and the vapid shill she is for oligarch billionaires. He especially shreds the Free Press over it's coverage of trans issues and the so called whistleblower Jamie Reed.

MIT’s reply to Trumps shocking attack on education is a master class in deft rhetorical communication and positioning. It refutes without ceding ground. It negates without naming the charge. It accuses and rejects while sounding compliant. What a breath of fresh air after endless disappointments
MIT rejects "compact" proposed by the Trump administration.
MIT prez wrote: it "would restrict freedom of expression and our independence as an institution" and "is inconsistent with our core belief that scientific funding should be based on scientific merit alone."
