Update: I offered this simple amendment in the Appropriations Committee to say no President can withhold funds from a college to try to control their speech.
Failed 14-15. Every Republican voted to endorse Trump’s censorship.

Ok I’m offering another amendment right now in the Appropriations Committee to stop Trump’s corruption.
This one says the Department of Education can’t cancel funding for a college just because professors or students hold views Trump doesn’t like.
Again, stay tuned.

The middle school bullying of the GOP, from the White House down, is appalling. Everyone is wringing their hands about the state of boys and men, but I really think the toxic masculinity modeled by the GOP is a huge part of the problem. They are being taught meanness and selfishness by their elders.
