It's a 1st grader's art project if they were given "gold" medallions and gold paint instead of macaroni and glitter, and kept spreading the glue until they ran out.

This is EXACTLY why testing is good. Clear communication. I'm glad they're getting experience and working out the glitches.

How is this not a screaming massive headline across every news site? This is insane, a virtual declaration of civil war. We fought a revolution to not be subjected to this kind of tyranny

This exchange shouldn't require any additional commentary. The blatant violation of our American ideals (in this case, justice, not the blood-lust or percieved revenge being demonstrated) should speak for itself.
This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.
May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

I'm glad UC is fighting this absurd situation. We need to push back against people (esp. government and anyone with an abundance of power) when their entire goal is to inflict as much pain on those who are not in their percieved group.
The UC system has launched a public campaign to defend its research mission and financial future after the Trump administration demanded $1 billion from UCLA and froze a raft of federal grants.

To please Great Leader, the Smithsonian has removed Trump from its Impeachment Exhibit. Now, only Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton are shown as having been impeached. (Nixon resigned before the vote.) We are only minutes away from Barack Obama being removed from photographs à la Joseph Stalin.

Seems like an open and shut case unless speech is now considered interference with an official act. So far that seems to mean resisting or obstructing. But let's see if they stretch it. I think this could be a relevant law? It's ambiguous in this new bad world. www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/36/...
