Ha!
I will say that I did finally tell one student that he had to stop bringing smelly food to class. "My mom makes my lunch," he said.
"Eat it before class," I said, to the relieved nods of the rest of the room. (It was a lovely room at Harvard but smallish and he would stink it up.)

I can attest personally that Herr Professor was not only excellent, but fair with us at all times.*

We're presently in an increasingly authoritarian state. Trump and his minions are fascists and would love to turn the US into a fascist state, and they're trying hard to achieve that, but we're not there yet. Voting is *still* the most effective way to stop this. People need to show up in November.

I fear this is why Dems will continue to lose. We have a toxic purity test that labels as traitor any Dem who reaches out to the middle, nor can welcome new folks who were formerly in the middle/right. We seem to forget that we lost, and we'll lose again, if we don't adjust our thinking/action.

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

Jesus Christ, I just saw that Trump even ordered the bombing of the dead body of Hugo Chavez in his mausoleum.
You may recall that Trump subscribes to the insane conspiracy theory that Chavez rigged the 2020 presidential election from the grave.
That’s how deranged all this is.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Let’s talk about something not many people are chatting about and what’s actually happening right now.
You might wonder why Imran Ahmed and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) suddenly became targets of the U.S. government. The honest answer is that their research hit where it hurt.

The party of “national security”
Danes lost the most per capita in America's war in Afghanistan. Canada lost the second most per capita (if we discount the tiny Baltics).
Allies bled for the US after 9/11, and this is the thanks they get.

Again, it is utterly shameful & demonstrates the total failure of all of our political institutions that threatening our closest NATO allies with territorial conquest has not immediately ended this presidency.

Trump’s speech exposed a broad spectrum of unwellness. Rushed, ranty, grievance-laden and a brutal slog for fact-checkers, the diatribe was a dog’s breakfast of barking self-pity, finger-pointing, statistical bullshit, and political tone-deafness.
