I am disgusted by the ways that Columbia has caved and in the process weakened academic freedom for us all. History will not look on the Columbia university administration and trustees kindly. Conceding to authoritarianism opens up all of higher education to a horrific future.

Why Hasn’t Columbia U. Sued to Protect Itself?

Legal scholars say the university would have a strong case to make if it wanted to use the courts to fight for its funding to be restored.

Many journalists have been ringing the alarm for months on how the NYTimes & other MSM paved the way for these inhumane attacks on trans people. Some of my faves are @imarajones.bsky.social, @evanurquhart.bsky.social / @assignedmedia.org, & @michaelhobbes.bsky.social. Hold them accountable!

35 minutes until the deadline for all agencies to explain how they're going to be "Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism." Meanwhile, the Secretary of Transportation announces funding preferences to communities with higher birth and marriage rates.

In a totally normal and not-alarming memo, Trump’s new transportation secretary directs staff to give preferential funding to “communities with marriage and birth rates higher than the national average” jessica.substack.com/p/trump-admi...

What is a "controversial" belief or policy? According to a new bill in Ohio, examples include climate policies, electoral politics, foreign policy, DEI programs, immigration policy, marriage, or abortion. chroni.cl/40TaN4D

A Expansive Effort to Reshape Ohio’s Colleges Has Stalled for Years. Now It’s Back, and Even Broader.

Senate Bill 1 takes aim at what happens in the classroom, focusing on “controversial beliefs or policies” and seeking to encourage intellectual diversity.
