NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food.

Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

Maybe instead of pouring billions of dollars into their plagiarism machine, they should give that money to the many, many brilliant scholars and creatives who have a surplus of ideas but lack the time and resources to execute them.

One argument I used to make to my students about why it was important to learn history (and historical thinking) is that someone was always going to be trying to tell you things were natural or had always been this way and that you needed to be able to see that as an exercise of power.

We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

This is what is going to happen. There will be a thin top layer of non-digital universities — and all the tech billionaires will send their kids to those places.
Total success to the first college/university that pledges to be AI-free and brand it as an opportunity to receive a real education.
My employer, Dartmouth College, today boasts it's 1st Ivy "to launch AI at an institutional scale." It is doing this by partnering--"more than a collaboration"--with Anthropic, a company that stole the books of many faculty, me included, which many of us are suing.

A new report from Amnesty International, found that the Everglades detention facility known as Alligator Alcatraz punished detainees in "The Box"—a 2x2 foot outdoor cage where victims are shackled, exposed to sweltering heat and swarms of insects, and denied water in a calculated act of torture.

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.

As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

Marjorie Taylor Greene was never going to change her stripes.

She’s still a hateful, spiteful racist.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.

Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.

Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

spot on
🧵A Threads post in response to a George Will op ed praising Mike DeWine - the post includes a screenshot to a comment on the Will piece which is spot on in labeling DeWine as a radical right winger clothed in temperamental calmness

The comment is a luminous piece of prose, suitable for framing.

And the democrats who went along with that vote are all idiots.
Republicans crafted an entire midterm strategy around making Mamdani the face of the Democratic Party and portraying him as the most dangerous political figure in American history. Called him a jihadist. Introduced a resolution in the House condemning socialism. All gone now.

US Congress voted 285–98 to condemn "socialism." 88 Democrats joined Republicans, including Hakeem Jeffries.

What they mean by socialism is your access to healthcare, housing, safety regulations, and anything that benefits you instead of the oligarchy. There has been no vote to condemn fascism. #3E

THIS.
Have the Democratic Party, the Center for American Progress, and the architects of Project 2029 disavowed Larry Summers?

He's advising all of them and is a major liberal power player.

He was also used by the Dem establishment to attack Mamdani.

If they have, great; if not, why not?
