This all definitely ends with Trump agreeing to let Iran keep the uranium and collect tolls in the strait in exchange for the rights to a new Trump Intl. Golf Course outside Tehran.

Delighted to share our revised paper (w/ @juliaturner.bsky.social & @jacobbastian.bsky.social ) showing that Universal Pre-K has broad effects on local labor markets — effects well beyond only mothers. Larger effects for full-day programs. nber.org/papers/w33767 #EconSky #EarlyChildhood #ECE

I'm being to seriously question whether it was a good idea to put our intelligence, security, and diplomacy in the hands of podcasters and shady real estate developers.

Presumably JD Vance is going to be right on this waste fraud and abuse right?

Busy days ahead for our new Fraud Czar, JD Vance.

Does this mean I’m not getting my tariff rebate? I’m still waiting for my doge check. I’m beginning to think I shouldn’t have bought that jet ski before check arrived

New Postdoctoral Research Associate positions at @Princeton's Office of Population Research!

Let's get this straight. Instead of investigating actual people incriminated in the Epstein files, we have Jim Jordan (credibly alleged sexual assault protector at Ohio State) grilling a women Hillary Clinton on capital hill. You can't make this ish up. Do your job, congress!

If Don Lemon is a criminal for disrupting a house of worship, shouldn't ICE be in violation too? democracyforward.org/news/press-r...

Dear Social Media- It is actually possible to deplore Hamas/Oct7 and the Islamic Republic of Iran while also rejecting the actions of Israel amongst civilians and it is possible to want violent criminals to be locked up or deported without supporting ICE kidnapping children and shooting civilians.

Happy Seattle won but a Hail Mary would have been fun

Jimmy Kimmel offers to let Trump have one of his trophies if he will pull ICE out of Minneapolis.

Another profile in courage from Josh Hawley in not voting for Congress to exercise their constitutionally granted checks and balances.

"Argentina's done it. Russia's done it. Turkey's done it. Venezuela's done it. And Zimbabwe's done it. It's a thing that tin pot dictators do... right before starting a hyperinflation and destroying their own economies."

sharing my most recent data/model driven thoughts on state school finance systems: schoolfinance101.com/2025/11/24/i...

@fareedzakaria.bsky.social rails against blue state funding and no results. Clearly issues but so much success- universal prek in nyc saves parents 1-2k a month. Cali higher ed best system in world. Nj, mass, Connecticut k12 education on par with Japan and Singapore.

I hope future generations recognize how quickly and strangely the contours of what counts as a political scandal changed for this president.

In a completely predictable shift... Policymakers supporting #SchoolVouchers have now decided that taxpayer-funded religious education is only for religions they like. www.tampabay.com/news/educati...

Fifteen million are about to lose health care. Premiums are set to double. Housing & child care are outrageously expensive. Meanwhile, Trump’s priorities are demolishing the White House, bailing out Argentina & now threatening war with Venezuela. What happened to America First?

Q: “Most hospitals + people who will lose insurance are in rural areas. If Trump & Republicans are so intent on sticking it to their own voters, why not let them?” @aoc.bsky.social : “That’s the difference between us & Trump. I don’t care if you voted for me, I want you to have health care.”

I never believed the "Drain the Swamp" promise from Trump but I think it is a worthy goal. Glad we sent Menendez upstate, but I'm sickened by Tom Homan, George Santos commutation, crypto bribes, etc;

It's really not about politics anymore. The apparatus of the Republican Party has simply become a haven for bad people. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

“We can give $20 billion to Argentina but we can’t afford the CDC’s measles experts” is a hell of an argument

🍎🦡 I'm recruiting a PhD student in Ed Policy (fall '26) at @uwmadison.bsky.social! Come work with me on college access, admissions, & fin aid in our top-ranked, fully-funded program. I’m especially excited for this student to immediately join our direct admissions RCT team.

The University of Nebraska looks to join West Virginia University as flagship public universities to cut graduate programs in K-12 and higher ed administration. It's not a great look for land grant missions.

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

Just another Friday afternoon in 2025 higher education.

Valuable work that should inform our understanding of the complicated political dynamics underlying anti-public school, anti-teacher union backlash to COVID policies.

Terrible analysis. The Post wants NY to unfairly punish students who get harder questions. NY's approach follows standards, see Ch 5 www.testingstandards.net/uploads/7/6/... Plenty of reasons to critique/improve state testing. This isn't one of them. Our TAC comment www.linkedin.com/posts/new-yo...

I’m old enough to remember when it was a Real Problem that Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch hung out on a tarmac once.
