1. SCOOP: Chances are personal information was stolen when Indiana University's web platform was compromised.
But in a leaked Zoom meeting with IT, a university admin said there wouldn't be more information shared publicly @WFIUWTIUNews

I've never seen this much debate or questioning at a board of trustees meeting. Bopp is taking the board to town on transparency and procedures

@IndianaUniv general counsel Anthony Prather proposes amendments to the expressive activity policy, in response to an ACLU lawsuit.
Trustees vote to approve, but they aren't sharing what those are. @WFIUWTIUNews

Judicial interference with legitimate acts of state, especially the internal functioning of a co-equal branch, is a violation of the separation of powers.
Outrageous. Obama Judge Paul Engelmayer didn’t just bar @elonmusk and @doge from Treasury systems, he barred the Secretary of the Treasury himself. Without citing a single law or even allowing Trump admin to appear in court! This outlaw should be reversed immediately and Engelmayer should be forbidden by higher courts from ever hearing another case against the Trump admin. wsj.com/us-news/law/federal-…

Pamela Whitten’s plagiarism scandal and pattern of failed leadership—faculty no-confidence votes, protests, and disregard for shared governance—make her unfit to lead @IndianaUniv.
How can a cheater who disregards academic integrity be trusted with the future of a university?
IU's president, once again demonstrating her "transformative" leadership. According to plagiarism.iu.edu, the pattern of plagiarism Whitten committed is called "the crafty coverup." chronicle.com/article/that-i…

May I say a word for the Democratic Party for all its faults?
It is the Republican Party that nominated Trump three times, that gave way to Trump, that supports and enables Trump.
The Democratic Party in opposition could have done better. But at least they were in opposition.

So the Republican mayor of Oklahoma City comes out for Kamala Harris against Trump, and the Washington Post takes a pass. #2024

Our latest from @LincolnLincoln. To support Donald Trump you have to be willing to buy into his version of reality. How much are you willing to degrade yourself to justify voting for this criminal?

Nearly half (45.37%) of Duke faculty consider Duke's DEI efforts "too much." By contrast, about a quarter (23.97%) consider them "not enough." (@DukeChronicle survey, which gave respondents anonymity). Yet, the latter group dominates discourses on DEI at public Duke forums.
