Labor unions, faculty and students in the University of California education system sued President Donald Trump's administration on Tuesday over the freezing of federal funds and other actions that they say aim to stifle academic freedom.

So like just after we published this, the 4th Circuit held a hearing where a bunch of judges (including famously conservative ones) are just going out and out with "wtf is wrong with the supreme court, why are they doing this nonsense to us?") www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Another professor in Texas is fired, this time after a selectively edited video of a talk he gave was posted on X, with the bogus claim that he was inciting violence www.texastribune.org/2025/09/10/t...

The professor has been fired and senior administrators removed from their post. No mention of this in the New York Times, The Free Press, The Atlantic or other outlets who drove the campus speech moral panic.

This is what eager complicity sounds like, and what defenders of academic freedom must combat: "I think we've had a lot of success. We can't promise that we've cut every single thing. It is an effort that folks very much so undertook seriously," @aaup.org #highered abc11.com/post/north-c...

There goes the Grand Jury ham sandwich analogy #RIP

The thing that disturbs me most about DC isn't the military pageantry or even the bursts of federal violence. It's the emptiness. The strange, dead silence. People should not be afraid to come to America's capital, see the sights, and have dinner afterwards They didn't used to be. They are now.

Good time to point out that NSPM-33 regulates reporting these professional associations on biosketches and Other Support #RAdminSky

#GMU President just got a raise. If a Dem was Gov, this light punishment may have been harsher.

NIH Director Orders Review of All Current, Planned Research https://bit.ly/45Wvq2p

NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya, who has spent years promoting skepticism toward mRNA vaccines, melts down over criticism from the American Medical Association, blaming the group for widespread vaccine skepticism because it supported COVID shot mandates. A totally unserious man.

AG Bondi on mayors and governors in blue states: “If they don’t comply with us…We’re going to…cut off their federal funding. We are going to send in law enforcement…just like we’re doing here in Washington, D.C.”

The Commerce Department threatening to take over Harvard's patents shows the extent to which the federal government is trying to pressure the university into a settlement. They are trying everything possible. (gift link)

“The focus on monetary damages paid by the university and restrictions on campus protests and diversity policies obscures the Trump administration’s imposition of the right to interfere directly in university admissions, hiring, and promotion decisions.” —Aaron Nisenson, AAUP Senior Counsel
