Coming back to this, I'm still struck by the implication that academics should care if the AI pushers "trust" all our work that's done without AI. I don't know, man, you all seemed to trust our work enough to steal it from us wholesale.

Clear evidence that at universities conservatives don't face higher obstacles than liberals to establish student groups + invite outside speakers. "These results fail to offer support for the view that conservative students encounter more difficulty in efforts to access campus resources."

WASHINGTON (AP) — At least 16 files from Epstein release disappeared from DOJ webpage, including photo of Trump, with no explanation.

They held a four day trial to try to convict this guy. The jury took three hours to deliberate before they returned a not guilty.

Question: When the head of the DOJ’s Civil Rights division tweets out a false statement about an individual that results in them being barraged with death threats based on their religion and ethnicity, which governmental agency would look into whether that student’s Civil Rights had been infringed?

It’s stunning that a person with this history is so eagerly working for an administration pursuing a policy of “remigration” that would involve stripping disfavored immigrants of their citizenship and sending them back to their “home countries.”

Maybe it was a sign when the person Trump put in charge of the DOJ's Civil Rights division was a protege of Jeffrey Hart at Dartmouth, a man who wrote this column in 1977.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer. Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump. Now, it’s gone.

Before you write this off as fringe, watch the vid/ read the Substack. Why is the military involved? Big Tech donors? They're actually *suppliers* for the project. 😳 Project Stargate/the Ellisons are also cleaved to Trump for this reason. Sigh. Think Team Trump plans to leave willingly in 2029?

An interesting theory. I think that it's a ballroom w/a bunker underneath but Drey Dossier has done digging into contracts & believes it's a data center. The firing of the original architect & replacement also points to this. 🤔 📺 youtu.be/VbJ4ilDvGyc?... 🧾 open.substack.com/pub/thedreyd...

i’m just going to assume the 90% of pages that they blacked out is ONLY donald trump

Oh man. They have now deleted this Epstein photo that they overlooked showed Trump. As people have said, their incompetence may be our only salvation.

Here's a better view of the now-deleted photo showing Trump with Epstein and Trump with a group of young girls. The photo was originally posted as item EFTA00000468 but was later deleted. Now the 'official' list simply jumps from EFTA00000467 to EFTA00000469.

For about ten years after the N. Ireland peace agreement was signed, I helped to monitor policing in communities. What Chicago lawyer Rob Held says BP does – attacks communities as BP leaves – is what the notorious police in N. Ireland did too – antagonize locals and launch attacks as they exit.

You know a thing that is very bad about this? This is the anti-trans playbook being played against women. Start with 'has the x movement failed the people it's supposed to help', then infantilize them, then make the case they can't be responsible for their own choices, then take their rights away

A YouTube content creator whose livestream talking about investments mysteriously appeared to take over a White House website says he has no idea how it happened.

An autopsy determined the suspect in the Brown University shooting and MIT professor's killing had been dead for two days when found.

Hang it in The Louvre.

They really think everyone else is as stupid as they are.

We already knew Bill Clinton and other Dems were in the files. But we said release everything and let the chips fall. Congress passed a law to release everything. But DOJ decided to violate that law by cherry picking certain things while covering for Trump and his cronies.

In 2023, the Education Department launched investigations into a Texas school district after several alleged incidents of racial bullying, and an investigator was planning to visit. Then the 2024 presidential election happened — and the visit didn’t.

Garcia: Well, first, I think we should be very clear: This is absolutely breaking the law. They have not produced actually what they were required to do, which was all the files by today in a way that was searchable for the public…

I started counting all the publicly accused abusers onscreen and I ran out of fingers in five minutes

This is some really bleak shit, folks. Take a hard look at your president.

Vought and Miller are running the show, propping up their useful idiot. None of this ends just because we treat Trump like there is something deeply wrong with him. It's a distraction. There is something far more deeply wrong with this administration that has been unleashed on America.

Man is entirely unhinged. Nevertheless, politicians, former presidents, media, and anyone of influence remain silent on a grave issue merely regarded as eccentric conduct. This is not simply an idiosyncrasy, and the assertions made by Vought and Miller are profoundly unsettling.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor. Now, more than ever, help build independent, pro-democracy media. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

“This is a student who did nothing wrong on a campus that is already in mourning,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the "enraging" story of right-wing figures falsely claiming with zero evidence the Brown University gunman was a Palestinian student.

Part of the issue here is faculty develop their own courses - it takes a lot of time and effort to do so - but if the university owns the syllabi they could fire me but keep all of that work and have someone else to teach the course *I* built. Replacing TT with adjuncts the obvious application.

Info that must be posted: 1. Class name 2. Goals 3. Grading info 4. Materials required for purchase 5. (This is new) "A statement noting that the course engages diverse scholarly perspectives to develop critical thinking, analysis, and debate[,] and inclusion of a reading does not imply endorsement"

The UNC system just released its final policy on mandatory syllabi disclosure, stating that syllabi are university (not faculty) IP and certain course info must be posted on new, publicly searchable databases before every semester.

Nenko Gantchev should still be alive—home with his family. After 30 years contributing to Chicagoland as a small business owner and taxpayer, ICE detained him, ignored his medical needs, and he died in custody. This system is cruel, reckless, and must be held accountable.

BREAKING: RFKJr directs that the US instantly stop recommending all vaccinations for children. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

I cannot state any more baldly or clearly than I already have about what an immense menace RFK Jr. is. The number of preventable illnesses and deaths - of *babies* - will be horrific. This anti-vax crap is grotesque anti-science, and always has been.

Steve Bannon reportedly said: 'You raised a kid that slit your throat!' about the late Rob Reiner. A reminder that not a single prominent Democrat or liberal pundit said anything even vaguely akin to this when Charlie Kirk was murdered. Oh the hypocrisy.

Under the proposed rule issued by the Trump Administration today, any Medicare- or Medicaid-participating hospital would be barred from providing gender-affirming care to *any child*, even if the care is not paid for by Medicare or Medicaid. public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2025-23465.pdf
