The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.
It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.

I've been doing a lot of TV lately, but easily my favorite thing is "The Professor Is In," a segment in which we step back from the news cycle and teach economics. That's my true love. With news that Trump might be about to appoint a new Fed chair, we explain: What does the Fed Chair do?

Rubbing salt in the wound is citing their shadow docket rulings in further shadow docket rulings. This is how you guarantee the court will be seen as a wasteland of partisan hackery.

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

Everyone at @tulaneu.bsky.social, @lsuscience.bsky.social and elsewhere in Louisiana need to stand up now. It's not just about ACIP, it's about attacks on NIH, on universities, etc. presided over by RFK Jr. Bill Cassidy is more than a coward. He is now an accomplice.
Every time ACIP meets, Bill Cassidy (R, Coward City) makes pathetic mewling sounds about how bad the committee is.
It is Bill Cassidy’s fault that ACIP is no longer a legitimate scientific body.
Sir, you are a fucking U.S. Senator. Impeach RFK Jr or STFU.

What's changed is that the Court has become more transparent in its corruption. There's not even an argument here beyond the implicit one which is: how do you expect us to hold the House without those seats?

For what it's worth, my experience was the exact opposite.
I found my students this semester to be more engaged and excited about the work than they have been in years.

Hearing, and seeing, many university professors express despair, of this sort, this fall. Faculty are famously headstrong and truculent, if sometimes grouchy. But this affect is new. ’ve never seen the widespread descent into sorrow before, that I am seeing now.
Today I'm teaching the last few classes of the worst semester of my career. Just poor attendance, rampant AI use, disruptive students, and a sea of blank, disinterested faces. That last one is especially tough. It's hard to perform for a crowd that seems intent on giving no reaction whatsoever.

Hard disagree. The official BLS jobs numbers are still the most reliable data we have, and it's not close. And there's no way the Administration has (yet) fiddled with its data. I promise to let you know at the first whiff of interference.
The only reliable data we are going to get on this stuff now comes from the private sector. bsky.app/profile/atru...
🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"
