That's what this has all been about.
"Correcting diversity."
Deportations, concentration camps, murdering protestors, anti-DEI, forcing trans people into hiding, it's all for one reason....

Feel like it should be a bigger story that Howard Lutnick's firm (run by his kids) created a financial product to buy up tariff refund claims at a major discount, and will now be cashing in on the higher costs passed onto consumers.
It should be noted that Bovino is actually describing mass ethnic cleansing, not mass deportations.
Judge Helen Gillmor just told the DOJ exactly where to stick their bogus, preemptive lawsuit. Her brilliant ruling leaves Big Oil's federal shield completely shattered. Here's why this ruling is a massive game-changer... 🌊👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-is-l...
A series of six maps depicting Arctic sea ice age from 2000 to 2024. Each map shows the Arctic region with colors representing the age of the sea ice, ranging from yellow for older ice to dark blue for younger ice. The progression illustrates changes over time with each map labeled with its corresponding year: 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2020, and 2024.
Introducing the new Arctic Sea Ice Age product, offering one of the most advanced long-term records of Arctic sea ice evolution.

Hegseth on dropping the flu vaccine reqt for the military: We will not force you to take it, “because your body, your faith and your convictions are not negotiable.”
OH REALLY?
Replace ‘flu vaccine’ with ‘abortion’ and we’ll see how ‘negotiable’ my body, faith, and convictions are.
It's not possible to view these kinds of arguments, which are coming up repeatedly, separately from the sustained attacks on shared governance. Some state legislatures and rich donors have been extremely vocal about removing faculty from positions where they can affect change at their universities.
Exciting 🤩 new insights into subglacial hydrology of Grímsvötn jökulhlaups (2021/22, Iceland).
💧 Subglacial Floods switch between channel & sheet flow; water ponding along paths drives major ice dynamics and velocity including lifting of ice, altering 3D motion.
Amazing work 🇮🇸 #glaciology #glofs
SORKIN: There's a whole number of very large companies, including Apple and Amazon, that have not sought reimbursements yet for the tariffs. From what I understand, part of the reason is they're worried about offending you.
TRUMP: I think it's brilliant. They got to know me very well. I'm honored.
I don't *believe* this per se, but there's a long-held conspiracy theory that Alex Jones is long-dead esoteric comedian Bill Hicks, and I'm just gonna say that it makes Jones REALLY mad when you bring it up
Imagine seeing a Grimace hit by a car on the side of the road. For us it’s the stuff of nightmares but for motorists in McDonaldLand it is the grim reality of everyday life

Abstract: Under the banner of progress, products have been uncritically adopted or even imposed on users — in past centuries with tobacco and combustion engines, and in the 21st with social media. For these collective blunders, we now regret our involvement or apathy as scientists, and society struggles to put the genie back in the bottle. Currently, we are similarly entangled with artificial intelligence (AI) technology. For example, software updates are rolled out seamlessly and non-consensually, Microsoft Office is bundled with chatbots, and we, our students, and our employers have had no say, as it is not considered a valid position to reject AI technologies in our teaching and research. This is why in June 2025, we co-authored an Open Letter calling on our employers to reverse and rethink their stance on uncritically adopting AI technologies. In this position piece, we expound on why universities must take their role seriously toa) counter the technology industry’s marketing, hype, and harm; and to b) safeguard higher education, critical thinking, expertise, academic freedom, and scientific integrity. We include pointers to relevant work to further inform our colleagues.
Figure 1. A cartoon set theoretic view on various terms (see Table 1) used when discussing the superset AI (black outline, hatched background): LLMs are in orange; ANNs are in magenta; generative models are in blue; and finally, chatbots are in green. Where these intersect, the colours reflect that, e.g. generative adversarial network (GAN) and Boltzmann machine (BM) models are in the purple subset because they are both generative and ANNs. In the case of proprietary closed source models, e.g. OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Apple’s Siri, we cannot verify their implementation and so academics can only make educated guesses (cf. Dingemanse 2025). Undefined terms used above: BERT (Devlin et al. 2019); AlexNet (Krizhevsky et al. 2017); A.L.I.C.E. (Wallace 2009); ELIZA (Weizenbaum 1966); Jabberwacky (Twist 2003); linear discriminant analysis (LDA); quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA).
Table 1. Below some of the typical terminological disarray is untangled. Importantly, none of these terms are orthogonal nor do they exclusively pick out the types of products we may wish to critique or proscribe.

We unpick the tech industry’s marketing, hype, & harm; and we argue for safeguarding higher education, critical

I study racist politicians from the Jim Crow era and this is on par with anything that John Rankin, Theodore Bilbo, or Cotton Ed Smith ever said in public
With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
I love these two Tims, Onion & Heidecker. Sandy Hook is the next town over from me; my kids swam in meets against the older siblings of the murdered kids.
