Shocking how bad this bill is: - 17 million would lose health care - 30% higher electricity costs - Millions of manufacturing and construction jobs destroyed - Biggest ever cut in food assistance for families, kids, veterans - $4 trillion in deficits - $1 trillion in

Are we going to just accept that we now live in a country where the government’s anonymous security forces routinely abduct Americans? This is insanity

Two years ago, I moved to Tulsa to become the inaugural dean of a new honors college.  Then President Brad Carson convinced me to leave my endowed position at Carolina to build the university’s sixth college. I am so proud of all we accomplished over the last two years 🧵(1/21)

What happened to you JD Vance --author of Hillbilly Elegy --now shrugging off Medicaid cuts that will close rural hospitals and kick millions off healthcare as "minutiae?"

I don't know Jennifer A. Frey personally but I've followed her for a while now and all you have to do is read her whole thread and you can see what a dreadful mistake The University of Tulsa is making.

I definitely don't agree with Jennifer A. Frey and the Great Books movement in general on everything, but I think it's obviously good and needful work she and others in the GB movement have been doing, and her being dismissed as the Honors College dean at The University of Tulsa is simply further

kinda obsessed with how everyone’s (rightfully) trying to expel octogenarians from positions of power in the democratic party, and the only one who willingly stepped down is the only one who was ever effective.

No more navel gazing or infighting. We now have a clear task. Inform blue collar America Trump once again failed them. Let’s stand on wooden crates at tractor pulls and ask for the chance to go back in and save people’s healthcare, paid for by higher taxes on Trump and Musk.

I’m pissed, but mostly I’m just sad for the millions of people who will suffer because of what Republicans did today. Many, if not most, are Trump voters. And most probably have no idea what this law will actually mean for them. “Well, that’s what they voted for.“ “They

"all the news that's fit to print" aka story about how a guy from Africa who is Asian said so on his college app to a college where his dad worked, and to which he did not get in — sourced to an anonymous right-wing race realist. This is fucked nytimes.com/2025/07/03/nyr…

Incredible for *Vance*, who told voters that their Haitian neighbors were stealing and eating pets, then admitted he makes up stories like that to get attention, to call on us to reject cynicism

This is literally superpower suicide. These are some of the most talented public servants doing critical work. Champagne corks are popping in Beijing and Moscow after they already emptied the wine cellars celebrating the end of USAID.

If you are a smart kid from rural Wisconsin then you basically won the college lottery because you get in-state tuition at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, one of the greatest universities on the planet. These “populist” dipshits don’t think public schools are real

Taxpayers spent nearly $1 million to buy and then incinerate food that could’ve fed 1.5 million hungry children for a week. All because Elon Musk fed USAID to the wood-chipper and Marco Rubio refused to do anything about it, even though he told Congress he would.

Amen, my sister. I see my students transformed every day by liberal leaning, and across the country I see the powerful wrecking the paths to it, without shame and without consequences.
