Re: vp debates. Does democracy require us to wade through miles of smooth but utter bullshit to sort out the truth? Apparently so. Yale law school has a lot to answer for.

Watching CNN cover Israel’s war on Gaza, Lebanon and apparently Iran. Who do they have on? Why not the entire IDF team of experts … what happened to dispassionate coverage? Do Americans know how insane this seems?

So now we have all the info we need about whats to come. All the media billionaires caving to the authoritarian Trump out of fear of retaliation if they don’t. WashPo and LA Times just this week alone. Twitter and WSJ long gone. We can’t expect any courage if this a-hole wins.

Maybe in democracies we shouldn’t let gazillionaires buy major media institutions. We have lots of evidence why not and not just here.

And just a reminder that when Trump calls Jan 6 and Madison Square Gardens a ā€œlove festā€ - he means the violence and hateful nasty speech shows his followers LOVE FOR HIM. That’s all that matters. Case closed.

Instead of polls or even accusations of fraud, the real index of Trump’s chances is the bronzer level! Gettin real dark. Good sign. That’s what I am tracking in this last nerve wracking stretch.

Listening to T and thinking he sounds more and more like his SNL caricature. What a despicable human being. Just trashing the US in a press conference. Classy.

Speaking as a senior faculty member at Columbia university re: NYT news item on President Armstrong’s resignation. What email? I have received none. Chaos reigns. Enough blackmail. Time to fight. nytimes.com/2025/03/28/us/…

Our admin walked us down this path and this is where it took us. Just disgusted. nytimes.com/2025/04/10/nyr… via @NYTimes

Does Trump just tell his lackeys to make a list of ways to fuck universities? This is administration policy? nytimes.com/2025/05/22/us/…

We are going to support another Israeli war without any democratic process? Are we a satellite state? I can’t express my horror. If we allow this we are as captive to an insane leader as Israel is. Where is Congress? Do we have no representation?
