The logical answer to having too few meat inspection facilities in your state is clearly to just start selling uninspected meat

Trump rages and says inflation "costs under the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION are tumbling down." It's as if he's trying to validate @crampell.bsky.social's argument. www.thebulwark.com/p/affordabil...

It really seems like this administration is trying to eliminate the field of public health. MPHs and DrPHs will no longer be considered "professional degrees" by the DOE and, therefore, will face limits to accessing federal student loans.

Here in Broadview, outside Chicago, a large group of faith leaders & protesters have gathered this morning outside of ICE’s detention center.

This looks like one of the largest protests on Beach St. in weeks, where the city of Broadview is still enforcing a small “free speech” zone. It’s packed.

A 15 year old cannot drive, vote, work, or live alone. They cant join the military. They cant be out past 10PM without an adult here.

And you, an adult man, want to have sex with them? Your desire is for POWER over them. That is all. They are defenseless. Powerless. They are children.

NEW: DHS invoked the “national emergency” at the border to skirt competitive bidding rules for a $220 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign.

We found that a firm with deep ties to Kristi Noem secretly benefited from the deal.
Kristi Noem-Tied Firm Secretly Got Piece of $220 Million DHS Campaign
The company is run by the husband of Noem’s chief DHS spokesperson and has personal and business ties to Noem and her aides. DHS invoked the “emergency” at the border to skirt competitive bidding rules for the taxpayer-funded campaign.

BREAKING: Pete Skandalakis, executive director of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia, has appointed himself to prosecute the case against Trump and others in Fulton County.

The move follows a court ruling that disqualified Fani Willis from pursuing the case.

Hey folks,

I just had to renew my health insurance and I’ve got to pay my car registration this month—all while I’ve finally got the big move to a permanent new home underway. I could use about $300 so I don’t get overdrawn in a few days. See the post below if you can help. Many thanks.

I wrote about why you absolutely do not have to hand it to Marjorie Taylor Greene, and posed a few basic questions that her interlocutors ought to be asking her, like: who won the 2020 election?

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.

Jim Ryan's letter is not just surreal and troubling; it provides a series of deeply sobering lessons—about the perils facing public universities today; about what it means to "work with" this Department of Justice; & about what leadership does (and doesn't) entail at this especially fraught moment.

I built a funny version of my website, but I thought it was too silly. Then I built a professional version of my website, and I thought it was irritating.

I couldn’t decide, so I made more, and it’s random chance as to whether you get silly or irritating. Just like me!

I thought the earlier news from A&M was bad, but this is incredibly bleak. It’s close to the point of not having a functional university.
Message to all faculty: your expertise is no longer trusted or valued at this so-called “university.”

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

i don’t think people realize how straight up delusional a solid proportion of democratic senators are regarding our politics. i don’t mean that as hyperbole. they are actually untethered from reality
I think this helpfully confirms the notion that the end of the filibuster was a big motivator for the eight Dems.
Heaven forbid the Republicans get rid of the filibuster…
