Just every day we are faced with overwhelming corruption and it just sounds more and more ridiculous to defend acting in a moral way (even if you still should try)

Texas A&M civil discourse symposium met with protest Some students said the message of the forum, headlined by former Vice President Mike Pence, rang hollow as the university has placed limits on what professors can teach.

Protest organized by...us!

(You're welcome!)

Dr. Leonard Bright speaks to protesters at the Texas A&M civil discourse symposium. Sign reads “Aggies for Academic Freedom.”

“We’re showing the Board of Regents that we’re not backing off.”

If he meant any of this he'd just retire from commentary because that's the only rational response to getting it this wrong, but instead he's just gonna endorse Vance next year because of under-the-hood articles about how he opposed the war

i would like just one of these guys to spend even 5 minutes teaching at a regional public or community college before they pronounce

Zimmerman is Columbia, Hopkins, NYU, Penn

Is this the “college readiness” policy promises?

@jaketapper.bsky.social is going to be wearing a pocket square with a mildly critical and definitely vague message about press freedom, Im sure things will be fine

Political commentators need to stop pretending there is anything more coherent to MAGA than hate of the "other." "Economics" are the figleaf these people tell you about why they vote MAGA, but its hate. Like Hindutva. Its voting for someone who promises to hurt the people you hate.

Wow:

More Corruption from the felon.

Republican President ____________ may have ____________ the ____________. But it's up to the incoming Democratic president to ___________ it.

Wow, a white scholar starts pandering to right wing political power after being called out by women? groundbreaking!

Come on, why do we infantilize Trump supporters? He was always dysfunctional & they always could have seen it if they wanted to. They chose not to because they were on board with his bigotry & shared it. They're mad because he's coming after them too & that's it. White folks are not poor babies!

"voters who just want prices to come down" and were tragically lured into voting for men who openly announced their plans to trash the country...

Just read the Yale report on Trust in Higher Education. You will be shocked, no doubt, to learn that it did not occur IN THE SLIGHTEST to a committee at a top American university looking at trust in American higher ed to use any other country's experiences to pose intelligent counterfactuals.

We filed suit against the Trump administration (again) today to block the implementation of an unlawful executive order that seeks to undermine inclusion & equal opportunity, threatens government contractors w/ criminal prosecution, & chills protected speech.

These are not normal times.

Watch how swiftly fake quotes get attributed to “S. Drimmer” now.

Thing is, this is exactly what ChatGPT was designed to do. Namely, jackhammer the grounds of truth beneath our feet. Whether the product is “good” or not is irrelevant. Its purpose is to remove people from acts of discernment.

It’s National Library Week! You can get started running for office at ReadLeadRun.org

I have confirmation the SAVE Act died because Senate Republicans knew it would disenfranchise their own voters at much higher rates than Democrats. I wasn’t going crazy.

If you attend the White House Correspondents Dinner this year, you should be legally barred from using the term "journalist" to describe yourself from that point on.

Trump did this 👇🏽

A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek), with the handle @magyarpeterMP. The post reads: "Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then — on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office." At the bottom, the timestamp reads "3:04 AM • Apr 21, 2026" alongside "19.9K Views".

Peter Magyar is not playing around at all. He's going to purge every single remnant of corrupt Orbanism. This is exactly how Dems need to be when they retake power.

She raised concerns about her company's contracts with ICE. Then she lost her job Billie Little had worked for Thomson Reuters for about two decades. She was fired after questioning whether federal immigration agents unlawfully used their products.

This is glaringly obvious to everyone except for the faces of corporate media, who desperately want to walk a red carpet

perhaps that’s the reason “coercive diplomacy” is an oxymoron?

It’s utterly ludicrous and corrupt for any journalist to go to this event.

Oh wow, this is huge. You used to have to go to the Library of Congress to get most of this.

RIGHT NOW -- Veterans are being arrested in #washingtondc after peacefully demanding an end to the War on Iran. @vetsaboutface

Why is the now former Secretary of Labor's family so horny? Why are they, allegedly, wandering around the halls of the Labor Department like they're sailors in a red light district?

No one, not the New York Times, not the Daily Mail, has explained this. Journalism is dying.

Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.

He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).

Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.

And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.

Remember this.
