In stunning comeback, Carneyโ€™s Liberals win Canadaโ€™s federal election The result marked a reversal in fortunes for a party that was on track for a massive drubbing only months ago and capped a campaign upended by Trump.

Breaking news: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carneyโ€™s Liberals won a federal election Monday, the countryโ€™s public broadcaster, the CBC, projected, a comeback that was fueled in part by President Donald Trumpโ€™s tariff policies and attacks on Canada.

This NYT-driven nonsense bugs me every time I see it. Let's set the record straight (again).

Our DEI office was *very* effective.

Among those supporting the compact was Silke-Maria Weineck, a professor of German studies and comparative literature. She decided to vote yes after seeing Michigan on the governmentโ€™s โ€œtarget list.โ€ Already this semester, she said, more than a dozen staff have been fired as Michigan administrators ended campus DEI initiatives.
โ€œEither they wanted to do this and used the Trump policy as cover, or theyโ€™re cowards,โ€ Weineck said Tuesday. She faulted Michiganโ€™s president, Santa Ono, for failing to support the compact effort.
โ€œWe need a wartime president. Heโ€™s completely not up to the moment,โ€ she said.
Ono did not respond to a request for comment.

Cowardice and Capitulation: Columbia Has Sacrificed Its Own Students to Authoritarianism The AAUP condemns in the strongest possible terms any university that would sacrifice its own students to the demands of an authoritarian government. Columbia Universityโ€™s decision to punish students ...

โ€œThe subjugation of universities to state power is a hallmark of autocracy. Columbia Universityโ€™s immediate submission and betrayal of the core mission of higher education reflects cowardice and capitulation to a government that seems intent on destroying US higher education.โ€

Excellent editorial by Silke-Maria Weineck: "[Institutional] neutrality is a policy designed to shield the right-wing from the critique of one of the most powerful institutions in American life โ€” the home of expert researchers and rigorous thinkers."
