And yet there are higher education leaders in the U.S. who say they are eager to work with Trump. They're insane.
Trump in a single gaggle on Air Force One just threatened:
-- a second strike against Venezuela
-- Cuba
-- Mexico
-- Colombia
-- Iran
-- Greenland (which in turn would be an attack on the EU and Denmark)

What do Donald Trump and Mike Johnson have to say to families struggling to afford health insurance? Many Americans are deciding between paying rent or seeing a doctor, and House Democrats find that unacceptable.

Anyone advocating regime change in Venezuela is implicitly advocating for a long, bloody, expensive commitment—whether they acknowledge it or not. ICYMI @markhertling.bsky.social:
What ‘Regime Change’ in Venezuela Would Really Mean
It’s not clear the administration has settled on a goal, much less considered the consequences.

Almost all of the MAGA Republicans who were dead set against foreign military adventures are now all-in on foreign military adventures. The only thing they really believe in is getting their cut from the Republican kleptocracy. It's not a political party – it's a criminal enterprise.

As of this week, millions of Americans are now paying thousands more for health insurance.
If the President and Congressional GOP think Washington has the capacity to "run" Venezuela right now, why won't they fix the insurance cost crisis they've created here at home?

Walz, Democrats' 2024 VP pick, drops bid for third term as Minnesota governor; Klobuchar considers
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Democrats' 2024 candidate for vice president, is ending his bid for a third term as governor amid President Donald Trump’s relentless focus on a fraud investigation into child care programs in the state. Less than four months after announcing his reelection campaign, Walz said Monday that he could no longer devote the energy necessary to win another term, even as he expressed confidence that he could win.

A 12-year-old was sexually abused by her adoptive dad. But when she told police, Taylor Cadle was dismissed and met with immense pressure to recant.

Police didn’t believe a 12-year-old who said she'd been raped. Then she hit record.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

The indictment against Maduro is about cocaine. If we had an honest White House Press Corps, every press interview Trump did would start with why he pardoned a narco terrorist president who imported 400 tons of cocaine into the United States.

The Kennedy Center isn't the only performance venue in DC, and I doubt a district that votes 96% blue is going to stop going to the theater.
This is not hard. Artists are not responsible for ensuring the Kennedy Center remains relevant and successful. The center’s board is responsible for that, in a fiduciary way. All of this energy being directed at artists should be re-directed at the board.
