MAGA’s “Voter Fraud” Watchdog Votes in a Swing State. He Doesn’t Live There. A long paper trail shows that Jack Posobiec casts a ballot in one state and lives in another.

Well, well, well. Jack Posobiec, the loudest voting-fraud conspiracy theorist, lives in Maryland.
He votes in Pennsylvania.

I’m in Philly and have been doing PAR within an Ed justice coalition organic for public schools for nearly 10 years. I’m more k-12 but would love to chat

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

“You also now must fear one another. Under the new normal, a single student can record a class discussion, fail to protect your identity, and post it online in violation of the safeguards provided by Student Rule 24 and FERPA, dragging you & your classmates into a national scandal without consent.”

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

The new Trump administration is making an unprecedented effort to PREVENT science from informing policy.

They are literally paying researchers and economists to NOT work. For the same cost, they prefer ignorance.

I've been trying to understand why this isn't generating as much fury as it should, and i think it's because there is a fundamental belief among many americans that the military can pretty much do whatever (which isn't entirely inaccurate.) that said, what the actual fuck.

Screenshot of a news excerpt. It reads:

"On August 19, 2025, Nexstar announced its intent to acquire Tegna for $6.2 billion; the acquisition would give it 265 stations in total, serving 80% of U.S. television households. In an interview with CNBC, Sook stated that the purchase was a move to '[play] offense and defense to maintain a vital industry for America and a vital resource for information,' and place Nexstar 'on a level playing field with Big Tech' in a 'fragmented and rapidly evolving marketplace.' Sook stated that in the 35 markets where this would create duopolies, Nexstar planned to keep station operations 'autonomous.' The agreement comes ahead of a possible loosening of FCC ownership limits by the second Trump administration."

The words “CNBC,” “Big Tech,” and “second Trump administration” are hyperlinked. There is a reference marker [127] at the end.

It's important to realize what precipitated this was Nexstar announcing they pulled showing Kimmel on their affiliates. They're currently waiting for the FCC to loosen restrictions to enable their massive merger. This was as much pay to play by a corporation as it was censorship.

Quote from trustee Robert Fenza of Penn State:

"...the thing that bothered me the most is that they have not committed to hire our employees in the agreement. It said they may, and that also means they may not and that’s not good enough for me.”

Quote from trustee Robert Fenza of Penn State: "...the thing that bothered me the most is that they have not committed to hire our employees in the agreement. It said they may, and that also means they may not and that’s not good enough for me.”

Penn State trustees rejected a deal to transfer the university's public media outlet (WPSU) to WHYY. As a result WPSU will shut down.

One trustee said he was upset the deal didn't guarantee employment for all WPSU staff.

And so he voted for a scenario that guarantees they'll lose their jobs.

The funding model for academic public health makes grad programs vulnerable to downswings & instability in the funding landscape. A cancelled T32 means a Dep't or Center may not be able to fund trainees w/o state funds (if @ a public uni) or w/o significant donor support (like some private unis).

If anyone is curious about the current list of search terms being used by right wing activist organizations to harass university professors, here's a public records request I received today from Mike Howell of the Heritage Foundation. Not intimidating or meant to curtail by my speech at all, right?
