Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Please give us your thoughts on why no single Democratic leader has emerged to solidly counter Trump/Musk. Yes, many are speaking up, Senator Sanders is doing an anti-oligarchy tour, but no one is standing up to be the face of and fighter for democracy.

Can we ask Chuck Schumer to not try to be the voice of the Dem. party? We need charisma, and we need relatable messaging. I fear Schumer has lost that. We need someone who is willing to fight on the points of fact. In short, we need you, Mr. Buttigieg.
