I've always told students that they shouldn't feel like they can't go into the trades (plumbing, carpentry, pipefitting), but that they owe it to themselves to get a college education. College is not just about preparing workers, it's about joy in discovery. Everyone deserves that. #FreeCollege4All

Wrote this report with my @prri.org immigration podmates @ekyleromero.bsky.social and @willmccorkle.bsky.social about how over 65% of Americans support TPS for Haitians. This administration exerts cruelty and calls it policy. Americans don't want it.

65% of Americans support granting asylum to Haitian families, revealing a significant disconnect between the recent Supreme Court ruling that allows the removal of Temporary Protected Status for Haitian migrants and general public sentiment. Read more in a new Spotlight Analysis:

My brilliant colleague Iván Chaar López 's tenure denial is not only a threat to UT faculty, but to all scholars who research topics considered "controversial." His case is a model for how to deny tenure with zero justifications to him or his colleagues. www.statesman.com/news/educati...

UT border surveillance scholar was a shoo-in for tenure. UT denied him.

American Studies scholar Iván Chaar López fears UT’s unexplained tenure denial violated his academic freedom amid scrutiny of controversial fields.

While Donald Trump spewed his delusions about voter fraud, his administration along with SCOTUS are trying to strip Americans of their right to vote. This has everything to do with Making America a White Republic Again. Most Americans aren't buying it.

In a new Spotlight Analysis, @drlmmurillo.bsky.social writes about the anti-immigrant rhetoric that the Trump administration is using to frame its argument for more restrictive voting laws, noting that these negative views are not shared by most Americans. Read more:

This is an important exchange between Congresswoman Tlaib and Russell Vought, the director of Office of Management and Budget. He's deciding what gets funded and what doesn't, often against the express laws passed by congress. He's also a Christian Nationalist. Tlaib called him feckless TO HIS FACE.

The beautiful game. The people’s game. Throughout this World Cup, we have been reminded of a simple truth: football belongs to everyone. So does the joy and community it creates. Yesterday, I joined New Yorkers on Rikers Island to watch England take on Argentina.

How humiliating that to rise in the ranks you have to kiss the ring of a charlatan, a buffoon, a sociopath. Tod Blanche, JD Vance, Pete Hegseth, Stephen Miller, & RFK, Jr have no actual expertise or knowledge. It's their spinelessness, lack of dignity and morality that helped them climb the ladder.

@nytimes.com YOU CAN'T SAY CORRUPTION? Listening to NYT The Daily discuss the billions of dollars this dumb man and his kids are making with OUR TAXPAYER dollars and NO ONE CAN SAY THIS IS CORRUPT? We could have healthcare and maternity leave, but instead these buffoons are padding their pockets.

So glad Rep. Kean was able to avail himself of government-funded healthcare and generous leave policies to take care of his health. I wish all Americans could have that.

RJ scholars knew this was coming because women have already been prosecuted. And it has nothing do to with controlling abortion, but everything to do with controlling women.

Read all the way through. Wild. But also very instructive on the way AI writing makes us feel. When we know "something isn't right." That embodied knowledge can't be replicated by artificial intelligence. They will try, though.

I'm attending a digital humanities event in Montreal. There was a keynote on AI and something about the talk made me wonder if it had been written by Claude. I said as much in the Q&A.

The American taxpayer is responsible for making Musk a trillionaire: without the billions in public funds that have repeatedly bailed out and kept afloat his multiple failing businesses, he'd be just another serial bankrupt. His fortune was built on OUR backs. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

CommonSense@comminsense.bsky.social · 2mo ago

A future Dem government should nationalize SpaceX and rip it away from Musk. He gets NOTHING in return and the US gets its NASA investment back.

I've been thinking about this so much in the last few weeks leading up to this massive IPO launch. He grifted billions from the government in tax right offs, and now he'll be stealing directly from our retirement. It's unconscionable that as a country we've let this happen.

Garrett M. Graff@vermontgmg.bsky.social · 2mo ago

It shouldn’t be controversial to say that the creation of a “trillionaire” represents a giant and complete failure of public policy and government.

Most Americans broadly support public education for undocumented students – regardless of their political affiliation and religion

Some states are trying to challenge a long-held precedent that undocumented children are allowed to attend public school free of charge.
