I love when people start up with "we need a total overhaul of education!" as if there isn't a whole field of education research that exists, as if this comment hasn't been made approximately 1 million times by people who have never read that research

Trump has declared war on universities — including the University of California — & on the very idea of critical thinking & scientific inquiry.

And he’s doing it under the fake guise of investigating antisemitism — as he assembles the most antisemitic Administration in U.S. history.

Our allies just witnessed Vance and Trump beating up Zelensky in service of Putin. They realize that US is no longer a trusted ally but a potential enemy. They will unify to protect themselves. We will be further isolated.

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

NIH is again throttling research funding in defiance of a federal court order A freeze on "new and continuation awards" will "remain in place" pending DEI review, states a new internal memo.

Despite court order, NIH grants remain frozen. Newly awarded grants, grants with fundable scores, & funds for a new budget cycle of a current project are all *FROZEN*🥶 and not being released. US research is being choked to death & is on life support right now www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Nikki Haley highlights the danger of Trump’s DNI pick, Tulsi Gabbard, which was already wholly predictable when Nikki endorsed Trump.

You have yourself to thank, Nikki.

Trump’s return is terrible news for Ukraine. Europe should step into the breach – but will it? | Timothy Garton Ash With Germany’s government collapsing and Europeans so divided in their response to Trump, unity is essential yet elusive, says Guardian columnist Timothy Garton Ash

"The first victim of Donald Trump’s second term as US president is likely to be Ukraine. The only people who can avert that disaster are us Europeans... Unless Europe can somehow rise to the challenge, not just Ukraine but the whole continent will be left weak..."

Donald Trump has said he plans to use the Department of Education to further his priorities. He also said he would close it. But is either possible? Even with his electoral victory, both options would face difficulties. nyti.ms/3UPvMlG
