Of course there is! The structural pattern is that elite universities do a lot to support neoliberal power. With a tenure-track appointment, you will benefit from that power. But it’s complicated. Elite institutions also allow for critical voices to do important work. Thus MAGA seeks to break them.

I'm glad he showed up, but he's always promoting himself. Lesser of evils. Very very apt to shift and turn in the political winds. And at the end of the day, this guy is a straight up neoliberal powermonger. We can do better than Newsom...

Afghanistan cost taxpayers $2.3 trillion. We got zilch in return.

They've trained us to think that it's weakness to have government social programs. Actually, it's social investment.

Our taxes SHOULD go to education, healthcare, maternity, & other supporting systems instead of wasted on war. 🧵
