Thanks a lot, fascist SCOTUS. Trump and his Project 2025 minions had the plan in place, which all of us with our heads in the right place WARNED about, but SCOTUS put him above the law like a god-king. The SCOTUS 6 are the cause, and Roberts (Chief Justice) is most to blame.

As with everything else Trump/MAGA, the cruelty and oppression are the point. In the current regime-I-refuse-to-call-an-administration, Stephen Miller, a white nationalist driven entirely by childish bigotry, hatred, and resentment, is calling the shots. He syncs with Trump's personality perfectly.

this is exactly right. the goal of youngkin and his board of visitors is to rewind the clock back to when UVA was a school for unexceptional children of the state’s conservative elites. even expanding UVA to serve all of the state’s talented students, regardless of background, is too much.

That's too generous and probably beside the point. Trump has never been a policy wonk and he doesn't care about details. All he cares about is how things look, and how HE looks. The cruelty of the bill is not something he cares about. He's lazy, incurious, and casually cruel and mean.
