Trump admin attacks on universities, including UCLA, are never in good faith. They're full of hypocrisy and gaslighting.

Solid column by @rabcarian.bsky.social. The Trump administration's extortion of UCLA goes beyond asking California taxpayers (ultimately) to pay $1 billion completely unjustified by law. Many substantive provisions of the draft substitute Trump administration policy preferences for the law.
Column: Proposed settlement between feds and UCLA is a master class in extortion
Trump's administration accused the university of antisemitism and wants to dismantle anything related to DEI.

Jury nullification occurs when a jury returns a verdict of "not guilty" despite believing that the defendant is guilty of the crime charged. This decision is often based on the jury's belief that the law is unjust or that applying it in this case would be unfair.

The way to ensure independent/non-oligarchic media is to really support it.
Not just by posting about the latest round of layoffs and consolidation. Before and apart from that happening.

Stop calling them "anonymous" donations (for the ballroom and military pay). The donors are fully known to the government. The Trump Administration is just letting the donors hide their identity from the American people.
I can't think of any non-corrupt reasons to allow this.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.
