Jeannie Suk Gersen, writing in the @newyorker.com, is as usual terrific. She also brings more than the usual credibility to the topic, having defended Harvard's independence from the Obama administration during the Title IX wars. bsky.app/profile/amyc...
The point of the Administration’s moves is not to combat antisemitism, racism, or sexism, or promote free inquiry and the diversity of viewpoints. The goal is rather to bring the university, as a representative of major institutions of civil society, to its knees.

Why does Elon get to eliminate a $50 billion agency that provides life-saving services, helps stabilize countries, and helps reduce the spread of diseases in the home country and thereby here at home?

I had an incomplete miscarriage that required medical attention many years ago. It was emotionally difficult but I received excellent care. It might not be possible today. Here’s a way to support this group: aidaccess.org
