Don't you think the public has a reasonable expectation that the Commissioner of the NACC being paid well above $800,000 would consider this a full time job and not also seek to freelance outside of it?

The NACC has AGAIN been forced to correct its evidence about how many times the Commissioner has consulted for Defence.
This is ridiculous.

I guess making high quality, usable web apps is “woke” now or something.
Literally “making things easy to use” is considered woke now

The people who arranged the event are not to blame. This seems (in my opinion) to be the university‘s extreme attempt to comply with HB 261 (Utah). To be clear, I would’ve been speaking as a private individual, not for the university.

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

In a bit of a tense moment, one of the La Mega co-hosts presses Mamdani on why he "lied" about his "aunt" having been scared to ride the subway after 9/11 while wearing a hijab.
Mamdani says it was "not a lie" because he refers to his father's cousin as his "aunt."
