Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Mark Kelly is about as centrist and polite as you can get and would never attack a fellow veteran. Kelly literally said he couldn’t find a single quality in Hegseth that would permit him to run the military. Kelly’s words were a stunning indictment.

And, nope, none of these white writers have ever penned an article asking Trump voters to "reach out" and understand the plight of millions of Americans who voted AGAINST Trump. Odd. So strange. I wonder why our anxiety doesn't matter? Hmmm. Anyone want to take a guess?
A lot of white dudes coming out telling me to reach out to Trump voters, not all are bad, yadda yadda. Good for you. You go out to diners & talk to people who voted for a criminal racist & violent insurrectionist 3 times in a row. For most people of color, we'll concentrate on the 65% that didn't.
