I don’t have an articulate way of putting this but this and the H1B news just feel like such a loss to this country. I mean in terms of academic and professional achievement and discovery but also just people who won’t fall in and out of love, babies who won’t be born, friendships that won’t be made

Michigan’s Mallory McMorrow has shifted her stance on the war in Gaza
Mallory McMorrow has shifted her position on the ongoing Middle East conflict.
Mallory McMorrow: “I’m not accepting AIPAC support. I’m not seeking their endorsement. I’ve never accepted their support. And what we are seeing in the Middle East is a moral abomination.”

Billionaire ticks all the boxes on the antisemitic score card as Trump attacks Democratic contributors before midterms
“This idea of the rootless cosmopolitan…I don’t need to say the word ‘Jew’ for antisemitic synapses to light up, which helps these conspiracies travel effectively. That’s exactly what we’re seeing now in the US and we should be clear about that” Me to the Guardian

Miller’s attempt to deem The Left terrorism was obviously where this was going and why, in addition to it being intellectually and morally correct, it was important to resist efforts to classify pro-Palestinian groups as such. You reject the politicization of “terrorism” or you accept it for all.

CBS News staffers are ‘literally freaking out’ about Bari Weiss taking over newsroom
EXCLUSIVE: ‘People are using words like depressing and doomsday – feels like some sort of doomsday,’ one source told The Independent about the mood inside CBS News right now.
“'The fact that we don't have money to pay journalists, but we have money to pay Bari Weiss between $100 and 200 million is indicative of what the Ellisons' true goal here is,' a network correspondent said. 'And it's not journalism.'"
