Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions – rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking concrete steps to make sure all students at Harvard can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope other institutions follow suit.
“No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.” - President Alan Garber hrvd.me/GarberRespond347t

This is a five alarm fire. The people elected Donald Trump to be President - not Elon Musk. Having an unelected billionaire, with his own foreign debts and motives, raiding US classified information is a grave threat to national security. This should not be a partisan issue.
Breaking: WASHINGTON (AP) — USAID security chiefs on leave after trying to prevent Musk's DOGE from accessing classified material, officials say.

Just finished reading and notating this meticulously researched book. My own ignorance shocked me as much as the chronicled atrocities.

Together, Bezos, Musk & Zuckerberg own more wealth than the bottom half of America. Billionaires are buying elections. And there's a greater concentration of ownership than at any time since the Gilded Age. Is that the society we want for our country?

This is incredibly sad for all of us who cherish the idea of India in all its splendid diversity.
Hitting three Muslim children and asking them to chant ‘Jai Shree Ram’ and proudly making a video! Protesting against a Muslim family in a gated society! Bravo! Open acts of terrori$m on full display, every single day! What a depraved society we have become.

John Leguizamo has appeared in more than 100 films while also telling a distinctly Latino story in documentaries, one-man shows and now, full-scale dramas. @JeffreyBrown met him recently in Washington to talk about his latest work and his larger goals.

The war in Gaza has been conducted almost entirely with American weapons and $18 billion in U.S. taxpayer dollars. We cannot continue to be complicit in this war by supplying more military aid and weaponry to the Netanyahu government. Congress must act to block these arms sales.
