Chuck Schumer after the White House meeting: "We have very large differences, on health care and on their ability to undo whatever budget we agree to... I think for the first time the president heard our objections and heard why we need a bipartisan bill."

Breaking news: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberals won a federal election Monday, the country’s public broadcaster, the CBC, projected, a comeback that was fueled in part by President Donald Trump’s tariff policies and attacks on Canada.

In stunning comeback, Carney’s Liberals win Canada’s federal election

The result marked a reversal in fortunes for a party that was on track for a massive drubbing only months ago and capped a campaign upended by Trump.

This NYT-driven nonsense bugs me every time I see it. Let's set the record straight (again).

Our DEI office was *very* effective.

Jordan Acker @jordanackermi.bsky.social · Apr 24

We did not "cave" on DEI. The decision to reimagine DEI as something different and more effective was made in October. Our DEI department was ineffective, did not improve outcomes across the University. We spent a lot of taxpayer and tuition money and it..didn't work. That's okay!

rather pleased with my quote in the WaPo

Among those supporting the compact was Silke-Maria Weineck, a professor of German studies and comparative literature. She decided to vote yes after seeing Michigan on the government’s “target list.” Already this semester, she said, more than a dozen staff have been fired as Michigan administrators ended campus DEI initiatives.
“Either they wanted to do this and used the Trump policy as cover, or they’re cowards,” Weineck said Tuesday. She faulted Michigan’s president, Santa Ono, for failing to support the compact effort.
“We need a wartime president. He’s completely not up to the moment,” she said.
Ono did not respond to a request for comment.

Can anyone help me understand why this generation of undergrad writers use “amongst” instead of “among”? Please explain.
