I am in shock at the stupidity of @gavinnewsom.bsky.social inviting Steve Bannon on his podcast. Many of us on the right sacrificed careers to fight Bannon, and Newsom is trying to make a career and a presidential run by building him up. Unforgivable and insane

“The Maryland National Guard must decline events which celebrates individuals based all or in part on immutable characteristics,” the memo said.

Douglass was an abolitionist, suffragist, orator and author. That’s what we celebrate him. Let’s be clear: This bars celebrating him because he was Black.

Strict guidance from the national defense department crushed plans for a parade held in honor of Frederick Douglass’ 207th birthday because it was being held during Black History Month.

If this cut to indirect costs goes through, universities won't be able to close the gap. Not even close. But they will do what they can. And I expect "less profitable" departments -- humanities, women's studies -- will take big hits, if not get shuttered completely.

That's a feature, not a bug.
“A sane government would never do this.” — the former dean of Harvard Medical School

Universities are reeling. Elon Musk’s allies are celebrating.

Looking at the major cut to federal research funding — which many scientists predict will be devastating

With @lenasun.bsky.social and Carolyn Johnson
NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately
The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease.
