All I’m seeing is the vomit emoji. No anger really.

A glance at the jaw-dropping, 6 or 7 figure salaries paid to administrators at most universities compared to the middle 5 figure salaries paid to many faculty is enough to see this as grossly hypocritical and insulting.

This is the personal FB post that got a Ball State staff member fired. The post is both compassionate and truthful but that made no difference. It was submitted through that website.

That, but also in Indiana, an official state government website from AG Rokita’s office has a portal that allows students to submit complaints related to “objectionable curricula and policies that show examples of socialist indoctrination”. Teachers are then investigated without due process.

I’m a recently retired professor at an IU campus, and the info I’m getting from former colleagues is that faculty are treated disrespectfully by administrators, with power and control over faculty speech also residing in the hands of students. Faculty walk on eggshells. It’s awful.

But in some emails, there is no reason for him to lie. In a conversation with Ghislaine Maxwell, he says Trump was in his house when a victim was there- and Maxwell also knows that is the case.

I was thinking more about the helicopter and drop. Seems like an expensive operation.

I wonder how much it cost to conduct that pointless raid?

I refinanced from 30 year to a 15 year in 2012 because of lower interest rates.

And what we’ll get is a heavily redacted and edited version. Republicans must know that. DOJ has probably already made it unreliable and essentially useless

When a person refinances, does that count as a new home buy? If so, how many people refinanced their mortgages in the last 15 years, especially when interest rates were low. Not saying it’s easy to buy a home, just curious about refinancing.

Or perhaps Merrick Garland being irrationally concerned about pursuing things that might be construed as politically motivated.

There have been discussions about who is leaking- and a likely candidate are Epstein executors who are lawyers and former Epstein employees. They have been cooperating with the oversight committee. They have emails and banking info and lots of info.

Delay delay. Maybe under pressure release a heavily redacted version or an edited one- then maybe a few court cases to delay some more, just buying time until something else keeps us occupied (or until there’s someone who leaks it).

It’s no big surprise. When there’s proof that Trump engaged in sex with underage women, that might be different.

I don’t think many people will be surprised, though.

Until 1983, UK and UofL never played each other in MBB. After meeting in the NCAA tournament in 1983, they played each other in the regular season. It was called the "dream game". In KY, it's a rivalry similar to Duke and NC. Last night, no one with You Tube TV could watch this historic match up. ☹️

Makes sense. The negative stuff is kind of a weapon - especially if Carol (or others?) figure out how to direct it.

Maybe Carol will figure out how to self regulate herself? She seems aware that her negative behavior has a profound effect on them.
