U.S. Policy Made America’s Research Engine the Envy of the World. One President Could End That. Someday, in the not-so-distant future, Americans may find themselves on the sidelines of science.

Excellent article about the critical role of fundamental research performed by universities and why Dump’s war on academia will irreparably harm America.
Just because the stupid kids in America’s Facist Party (GOP) got their feelings hurt and want to punish everyone

ILLEGAL ALIEN VS. SEXUAL PREDATOR

I’m inclined to agree. You?

International students contribute $44 billion to the US economy annually, creating 1 job for every 4 students enrolled.

Higher ed is America’s 10th largest export industry. A finance professor explores how their impact reaches beyond big cities to small towns like Mankato, MN.

I can’t wait until Dump and his cabinet are rotting in prison.

Making do with inadequate administrative support I suspect nearly all folks doing science in universities think that they are lacking the basic administrative support they need.

Many professors will never be satisfied. But for those of us that do all we can - it’s an interesting read.

Who did this?

Yes!

Yes!

Replace Schumer with Booker

Can everyone please remember Executive Orders are NOT laws? He can throw whatever tantrums he wants - that does not make it law. STOP CAVING. Fight back.

Remember:
Keep the protests organized and peaceful. They want a riot so they can declare martial law and suspend the Constitution.
Don’t take the bait.

Senate Bill 1 guts academic freedom and reshapes Ohio’s public universities • Ohio Capital Journal The Ohio Republican higher education overhaul substitutes governmental edicts for academic freedom; eliminates all diversity and inclusion activities on campuses; restricts how faculty teach; and bans...

Ay. Oh. Way to go Ohio. 🤬

What’s stunning to me is all the work that research institutions of higher ed are doing to meet the new DoD Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), or lose our ability to even apply for certain awards…..and the fricking cabinet is leaking classified information. 🤬

#DefendResearch We call on members of the worldwide scholarly communication community – researchers, policy-makers, scholarly societies, libraries, higher education and research institutions, publishers, funders, and...

I am deeply concerned with the pressure on scientists in the US: naked censorship, staffing reductions, and promotion of pseudoscience by the government.
I have signed the #DefendResearch declaration posted on www.defendresearch.org, under the number 3615.
Stand up for science!

Columbia Yields to Trump in Battle Over Federal Funding Columbia’s agreement is a significant moment in the intensifying battle between Trump and elite universities.

RIP academic freedom. This is a very sad day for academia in America.

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

I can’t with this crap.

What musicians did after an executive order on DEI led to the cancellation of U.S. Marine Band collaboration After an executive order ending DEI initiatives, the U.S. Marine Band canceled a concert featuring young musicians of color. Veterans stepped in to mentor the aspiring musicians.

For all of my fellow musicians. please watch and share this far and wide. We cannot let the GOP destroy the idea of unity through music. They are bigots and cowards and we are better than them.
And Bravo to @60minutes.bsky.social

Annual post.

Only takes 23 Senate Democrats to remove Chuck Schumer from leadership and replace him with someone willing to fight. Get him OUT.

Wrong. Coward.

@schumer.senate.gov is a coward. And we will replace him.

primary @schumer.senate.gov

@senatedemocrats.bsky.social replace Schumer now!

If America has any hope - 1) Election Day is a National Holiday; 2) All Citizens are required to vote; 3) Failure to vote is a $500 fine. 4) The first vote is to do away with the racist electoral college.

I'm Not Running in 2026, But I Am Getting to Work We all have work to do in delivering a better kind of politics for America.

I care deeply about who Michigan will elect as Governor and send to the U.S. Senate next year, but I have decided against competing in either race.

I wrote more here about my decision and how I view the work required of us all in this moment:

Judge blocks removal of Palestinian activist who was detained at Columbia University ICE agents arrested Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil -- a leader in Columbia University's encampment movement -- on Saturday night, said his attorney, Amy Greer.

GOOD! I will die on the hill of First Amendment rights. Just because you are Pro-Palestine does NOT mean you are Pro- Hamas. Just like being Pro-Israel does not mean you are Pro-Netanyahu. Or that as an American, Pro- Dump.

If EMPATHY is considered bad by your religion - I hope you rot in hell.
I can’t believe I was involved with a Randian for too much of my life.
