New from me at Cato: I go through the numerous and massive First Amendment and academic-freedom violations of Trump's proffered "compact" with universities and then talk about the mechanism by which it would be enforced, by way of what I describe as a "retroactive push-button guillotine."
Universities Must Defend Their Independence by Rejecting Trump's "Compact"
The Trump administration has proffered a “compact” to universities that would require them to surrender their independence and academic freedom. How many First Amendment violations can we identify in ...

The US has literally the best fucking universities in the world. Pledging fealty to the King will not make them better.

I am amazed that the NYT published this garbage. Is forcing universities to police speech following the orders of Dear Leader protecting free speech now?

“As someone who played a part in the compact’s initial formulation,” the financier Marc Rowan writes of the Trump administration’s plan for universities, “I would like to offer what insight I can into the motivation and need for the compact.”

The government should not use public funds to support a system that fails to serve the public good.

The Republican Congress has largedly done this to itself, but it got a hefty helping hand from CJ Roberts and the SCOTUS majority.

When Democrats sweep both houses in 2026, assuming we're still allowed to vote freely then, they need to address both Trump's overreach and SCOTUS' failures.

“.. Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an “iron fist,” according to people who have heard the comments. Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial.”

The president says there are very few stores left in Portland, Oregon, and the ones that are left are made of plywood.

I know we’re numb to this, but in any other time he’d have been removed by the 25th Amendment by now

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

Trump announces he's putting a bajillion percent tariff on China
It has just been learned that China has taken an extraordinarily aggressive position on Trade in sending an extremely hostile letter to the World, stating that they were going to, effective November 1st, 2025, impose large scale Export Controls on virtually every product they make, and some not even made by them. This affects ALL Countries, without exception, and was obviously a plan devised by them years ago. It is absolutely unheard of in International Trade, and a moral disgrace in dealing with other Nations. Based on the fact that China has taken this unprecedented position, and speaking only for the U.S.A., and not other Nations who were similarly threatened, starting November 1st, 2025 (or sooner, depending on any further actions or changes taken by China), the United States of America will impose a Tariff of 100% on China, over and above any Tariff that they are currently paying. Also on November 1st, we will impose Export Controls on any and all critical software. It is impossible to believe that China would have taken such an action, but they have, and the rest is History. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 838 ReTruths 2.53k Likes

Also: the train has two cars, four doors, three conductors, and they just have everyone use a single one.

Of course it is running late.

Also, I got yelled by a conductor for not being nice enough to him.

They insisted they needed to buy loco hauled cars instead of DMUs because they are more flexible, yet they never add a car to a consists, despite having perfectly predictable demand.

The Friday train 475 is late every single week, packed to the hilts every single week, and running with two cars every week. It is impressive how ConnDOT loves making the Hartford line useless.

NEW: In the latest example of the Trump administration dialing back crypto enforcement, DOJ reached a deal to drop charges against Roger Ver, who claimed that he was facing 100+ years in prison.

Ver, who had hired several Trump associates, will pay ~$48m to the government, but won't do any time.
