Student evals are always fun. What is an Alot? This one apparently was an Alot of Reading, which sounds kind of like a DnD item.

They don’t give out the award for “Most Dangerously Unqualified SecDef in History” to just anyone. You have to earn it.
(AP) — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had an internet connection that bypassed the Pentagon’s security protocols set up in his office to use the Signal messaging app on a personal computer, two people familiar with the line told The Associated Press.

Anyway, political science welcomes you to the wild, and wildly irrational, world of voting behavior.
It is absolutely fucking bonkers that Trump won more of the vote than he ever had less than half a year ago and now he is less popular than he’s ever been, all on the strength of shit he was promising loudly to do when people elected him.
Let's wake up. He's REALLY unpopular for this early in a term or really ever. President's this unpopular are already losing. Power becomes harder to assert when your power is fading.

If only there was an easily accessible tool where State and Federal Regulators could look for Ozone exposure, especially in marginalized communities, and screen for environmental justice 🤷
Ozone exposure early in life raises the risk a child will develop asthma and wheezing by age 4, a recent analysis found.
Early-life ozone pollution linked to higher asthma risk in young kids
Among the children studied, 12.3 percent had asthma at the time of their 4- to 6-year checkup and 15.8 percent had wheezing.

Friends don't let friends run survey experiments that don't measure outcomes pre-treatment
New paper with @dianamejordan.bsky.social and sky-less Trent Ollerenshaw! We provide large-N tests of repeated measure designs in survey experiments, showing that they slightly attenuate ATEs relative to post-only designs, but provide large gains to precision. Thread below.

As a New College Alum, this is sickening, but unsurprising.
New College of Florida has fired a Chinese language professor under a state law that restricts Florida’s public universities from hiring individuals they deem to be from “countries of concern”.

As the German joke goes: if you are at dinner with nine Nazis, guess how many Nazis are at dinner?
Ah yes, who could forget the obvious distinction between being an antisemite and "creating the feeling of safe harbor for far-right elements who unabashedly or in coded language express antisemitic sentiments"

The suspect that was arrested in the Magdeburg attack is a far-right extremist, a supporter of the AfD and Tommy Robinson. It is people like Robert Jenrick who empower these extremists. See how his talking points are identical to those that Jenrick still tweeted yesterday.
