Senator Elizabeth Warren sent a letter on Monday to the Treasury secretary demanding answers for why the Dept. of Government Efficiency was granted access to the federal payments system, giving Elon Musk's team a powerful tool that could be used to track and potentially limit government spending.

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

I get the instinct to condemn this by saying it has nothing to do with DEI. But Trump has defined any efforts to include Black history as DEI. Rather than run from the name, we should reclaim DEI as committed to celebrating Black history, which Trump opposes.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

Today, "shock and awe" strategy—and it's our job to be neither shocked nor awed.

We know what's coming. And it's our job to get ready to fight back.

Huge night here at NYU. An undergrad trying to fix their grade accidentally discovered how to email 11,000 instructors on a secret group email list, unifying the faculty like no one before. I have hundreds of email replies in my inbox. And apparently Onions, the puppy, has just been granted tenure.
Someone just sent a photo of their dog, Onions, to an 11,000 person faculty listserv, adorable
