Emory announces it is closing its DEI offices. And, they put the responsibility for announcing it on Leah Ward Sears, former Georgia Supreme Court justice and the new interim president of Emory as of yesterday. "The standards are clear, and we must act accordingly." Well, not really, but.

This is a really important piece taking apart the false factual premises of the Trump Administration’s attack on UCLA. There was no “Jew Exclusion Zone” at UCLA.

We moved to New Jersey in 1969 when I was 3 years old.

FOX REPORTER: “The way it felt in the room was not good. It did not seem like things went well. It seemed like Putin came in and steamrolled, got right into what he wanted to say, got his photo next to the president, then left.”

UC Law faculties: we are still accepting signatures!

A remarkable level of grace and humanity from Andry Hernández Romero, the hairdresser from Venezuela that the United States sent to CECOT in El Salvador, where prison guard forced him to perform oral sex. Despite all this, he shows a stunning level of grace. www.thebulwark.com/p/can-we-eve...

Oh man. this is so awful. And I believe every word.
