Politico is a right leaning rag. They’re trying to stir up trouble.

This was very interesting. But just wondering why nobody challenges people like Rick Wilson regarding the fact Ronald Reagan is directly responsible for making homeownership unaffordable and privatizing college loans. They helped to build this landfill and another telling us how to fix it sheesh!

@nicollewallace.bsky.social Nicolle it didn’t just start with the presidency of Obama. It started with the southern strategy that had been a playbook since the 60s of the Republican Party, your party, blue, silent dog whistles, all along. Trump just gave permission to say it out loud.

Blue and pink collar wages were good, college was affordable and easy access to federal and state grants to go to college that’s what I remember. And then a whole bunch of my cohorts sold us down the river and voted for Ronald Reagan. SMH.

Hey, Politico -- I consider myself to have "long-term standing in the private legal community" and I have been willing to speak out almost every single day. And, I'm not alone. Yes, there is widespread cowardice among law firms, but don't ignore those refusing to bow down. Defiantly, Marc Elias

Nobody is coming to save us, no. Thankfully, we have the infrastructure to save ourselves. Aside from preparing to vote all these idiots out, the most important thing we can do is get ready to take to the streets. If we’re going to protest, it can’t be a one-off. It’s gotta be big, and sustained.

There was a lot of #AcademicFreedom, good scholarship, and independent thought in German universities before Hitler. After Hitler had risen to power, many academics fled the country. Some resisted the Nazi regime and were persecuted. Most adapted to a new situation. Here are some examples. 1/n

The media has focused on wealthy, White neighborhoods. But the fire in Altadena--a racially and economically diverse suburb--deserves more attention, because insurance may not cover their rebuilding costs, forcing families out and leading the neighborhood to gentrify. www.reuters.com/world/us/far...
