This case underscores how SCOTUS made it impossible to hold immigration cops accountable for the abuses you see in all those videos.
A federal task force cop manufactured evidence to put an innocent woman behind bars for two years. Because of SCOTUS-conferred immunity, the case never got to a jury.

It underscores the total moral turpitude of our political class into which this country has descended. A complete abandonment of the needs of the many for the continued aggrandizement and lust for eternal wealth of the few.

The impracticality of this idea just underscores that its proponents want it to be weaponized against individual faculty
Florida's Board of Governors wants institutions to have course syllabi available 45 days before courses start. That raises serious issues about faculty calendars and adjuncts, and Georgia has moved to requiring syllabi at the time of student registration (!!!).
As an administrator, this is messy.

Florida wants to post more college syllabi online. Professors fear what's next.

Mamdani and Hochul have found common ground on universal child care — and their alliance underscores how Democrats are shifting away from treating it as a "woman's issue" to one that concerns all Americans.

I was just talking about this with a neighbor this morning. The state police were doing what police have done forever, unnecessarily escalate to attack protesters.
The fact this seems to have suddenly stopped after JB took heat really just underscores that it was always unnecessary & intentional.

rather than a success, i see this as an indictment of the illinois state police’s actions.
it’s yet more evidence that cops (in general and at broadview) escalate protests through needless violence.

perhaps pritzker took all the recent criticism to heart and ordered his police to stop escalating violence and brutalizing protesters.
whatever the reason, the conduct of state and local police outside broadview tonight was noticeably different.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

Exactly the irony is hard to miss. They push “work requirements” for ordinary people while barely showing up to do their own jobs. It really underscores how much of the rhetoric is about control and posturing, not genuine accountability or productivity.
