NEW: I’m calling for a Government Accountability Office investigation into ICE’s billion-dollar detention center contracts with private corporations.

Trump’s admin is funneling cash to shady private prison corporations — including GOP donors. The American people deserve answers.

If you’re too afraid to do your job, you should quit your job. If you’re too afraid to report on what’s going on because you’re afraid of MAGA death threats, you should stop being a reporter.

if you’re too afraid to vote against honoring a white nationalist due to death threats, you should resign.

www.insidehighered.com/news/governm... I was a first-gen student, a high school dropout, and a returning adult. I was also TRIO student, a tutor, and a McNair scholar who now has two graduate degrees and works in higher education assisting students with backgrounds similar to mine.
Trump Administration Withholds Millions for TRIO Programs

Fucking FINALLY
The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social

"There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”
Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

Wetland restoration is seen as sunk cost – but new research shows why it should be considered an investment
Traditional cost-benefit analyses treat wetland restoration as a one-off expense with fixed returns. New research shows this misses long-term climate and biodiversity benefits.
