At this point, anyone—a university, a law firm, a corporation, a Democrat—bending the knee to Trump is doing it because they want to, not because of any political reality.

It’s a small point and nobody behind this cares, for obvious reasons, but if what happened at Columbia were a response to something Columbia or anyone specific there did wrong, it would make no sense to treat it as a “prototype” to replicate across a “sector.” Faculty who leaned into this are fools.
Rufo would "like to see that prototype [what's happened at Columbia and elsewhere] industrialized and applied to all of the universities as a sector" and that he would like "to reduce the size of the [higher education] sector itself."

Trump Administration Aims to Spend $45 Billion to Expand Immigrant Detention

At least 20 people lost their lives over the weekend as storms ravaged the country.
Meanwhile, Trump & DOGE have terminated 1,000 employees from NOAA — the agency that provides severe weather forecasting and warnings.
Make no mistake: these cuts put people's lives in danger.
