Hi, yeah, who’s going to tell Trump that’s not how universities work? It really shows how little he understands higher ed. His ignorance will continue to hurt students & colleges/universities as a whole—let’s see how long it takes to figure out how important they are to our state/national economies.

Omaha just elected Democrat John Ewing to replace 3 term Republican mayor Jean Stothert—seems like more of these reps need to be listening to their constituents or they may just lose their seat 💅👀

Pushing back on the attacks on education? You’re not alone, even if it feels that way. There are many folks within our University system (and beyond) pushing back—we have to keep it up www.dailynebraskan.com/news/afire-f...

Last day of class for my Nebraska EDAD history of higher education course! A fantastic group of college educators finishing up the last semester of their master’s program! 🎉 🎉🎉

Ummm have y’all seen the antics Trump has been up to on social media since yesterday? Apparently conjured up an AI image of himself as the Pope, posted on his truth social account, and also now on the official White House social media (see Instagram landing page below). This is our president? 🥴

My statement to the University of Nebraska Board of Regents against complying with anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion guidance. Now is the time to be brave and to keep fighting for the future of education.

This is the world Trump and other Republicans are creating. Republicans have become so obsessed with controlling trans people they are losing sight of reality. We already struggle to keep teachers, what do you think will happen as they are continuously surveilled, censored, and threatened?

Listening in to Senator Cory Booker live as he continues his powerful filibuster—somewhere around 20 hours now and going with no breaks. This is the energy that we need to show up in this moment in history and I am here for it 🔥🔥🔥❤️

Dismantling the Department of Education would be a travesty. If it is eliminated, who will we trust to care for essential programs and services it previously carried out? More unqualified billionaires? Private corporations that only care about making a profit? It’s time for us all to #SpeakUpForEd

There were a lot of horrifying and ridiculous things I expected from this administration, but Trump becoming a car salesman was not one of them. 🤡

It’s giving… Danny DeVito’s character from the movie Matilda—same car quality and all.

JD Vance knows that what he is saying here is a lie. He’s saying it to delegitimize our democracy. If we continue to hope for the best and for our systems to save us we are going to be in an extremely dangerous position very quickly.

As for me and my house, we will be buying in at #Costco 💅💖

Fuel to keep pushing back on an administration set on destroying people’s rights and lives. Reminder that where we spend our money matters—whenever possible spend it with folks that are fighting with you, not against you

If #Meta #Facebook didn’t buy #TikTok or make some kind of deal with them that would be shocking - the TikTok app has Facebook language in the Terms and Policies—Intellectual Property Policy tab as well as the privacy options —see screenshots

Making care packs to give to home insecure folks today. What are you up to on this Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day? 💖 #mlk #mlkday

REAL creepy ish happening with TikTok rn. Trump, who started the ban in the first place is now taking full credit for “saving” it. Signs point to a meta purchase (not confirmed). So what started as fear mongering about spreading Chinese propaganda has become a platform to spread Trump propaganda.
