my takeaway from this letter is that glenn youngkin, rector sheridan and their flunkies on the board are deeply dishonest people who are engaged, with the trump administration, in a mob-style shakedown against the university of virginia
Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ.

It's a surreal--and troubling--read.

Donold used the higher crime numbers from 2023 to justify his takeover of D.C., and soon he'll use lower ones from early January this year to "prove" it worked.

They are sending roving bands of masked thugs with the stated goal of kidnapping 20 million brown people to transport them to any country they can pay to take them. All this has been cleared by The Stolen Court.

This is not deportation.

This is ethnic cleansing.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium.

ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

The gift is bad enough on its own, but can we talk about how insane it is to use a foreign-gifted jet as *Air Force One*

Air Force One has a lot of capability that a luxury jet simply doesn’t, and that’s before we even consider the obvious spying/bugging/security concerns.

$9 billion a year for NSF is absolute chump change. It's nothing. And yet, cutting it will devastate American science for decades.

God, we're led by a morons, empowered by idiots.
Your regular reminder that NSF grants built the internet and helped the U.S. dominate tech.
BREAKING: NSF has frozen all grant funding, as of yesterday. It's unclear when they will resume funding awards, or why the pause has been put in place. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

TO RECAP:
- they’re snatching innocent people off the streets
- they’re deporting people to supermax prisons solely because they have tattoos
- they’re using the Signal app (which holds messages temporarily) so evidence of their crimes isn’t found later
- Republicans are fine with all this

Trump wants to set rules for the way states run their elections and wants DOGE to audit voter databases. DOGE. Not an independent entity - his cronies.

Mike Johnson is talking about eliminating district courts.

These are not actions you see in a Democratic Republic.
