“Insufferable brunchlord” is the best and most accurate burn of Ezra Klien. It’s even better than when I annoyed my local librarian by moving “Abundance” from the non fiction to the fiction section of the Peak Reads display.
who the fuck does Ezra Klein thinks actually writes the overly convoluted regulations he despises?

It's not progressives or anybody even tangentially related to good faith reform movements, it's unchecked corporate power, you insufferable brunchlord

WE WON. I am *begging* you to take note of who did this. *Not* UCLA admin—they’re still scuttling around behind closed doors, attempting to appease—but FACULTY AND STAFF, led by AAUP.
BREAKING: In AAUP et al v. Trump (wall-to-wall union lawsuit challenging the administration’s unlawful use of TItle VI to reshape the University of California system), the faculty and staff of the UC system WON!!!

We were granted our preliminary injunction! @aaup.org
