I was passed on this crap. Now, look at the Republicans, rushing to protect the companies that sold it.

Terrific reporting on why Dems lost Latino voters. Turns out, the failure to deliver on promises of Immigration reform finally caught up with them. Remember Obama's broken promise? Apparently, many Latino immigrants do.

Here's some context, #NPR, Michel Martin: Abigail Bordelon holds up a red-gloved hand after opting not to shake hands with Dartmouth President Sian Leah Beilock while walking across the stage during the Dartmouth College commencement ceremony on June 9, 2024.

Our President's contention that we "teach them how to think, not what to think" on #NPR is a misrepresentation of what we do as professors. At least in my discipline of History, we interpret evidence, which is BOTH "how" and "what." There is a cult of objectivity in her "idea" that isn't helpful.
