True. And you'll never hear this on Fox. Or the fact that roughly 40% of Tesla execs who moved from California to Texas were busily attempting to move back to California after less than one year.

Basically the company was preparing to share the data with schools and universities that had been compromised and whatever 3rd party service they were going to use may have issues so they've put a pause on that? My takeaway: The internet is not safe, abandon hope, all ye who enter here!!

Four tenured faculty members and one on the tenure track were abruptly fired by Virginia State University when their program was closed. Forget about your governance they weren’t even given advance notice in their dismissal! Tenure is effectively dead www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty...
“We have nothing written that tells us that we have been terminated because of this reason or that reason, because of changing programs or whatever. Nothing. Not an email, not a letter,” Temu said. “We even submitted a [Freedom of Information Act] request for that … and they only gave us copies of our past contracts.”

It was crystal clear what MASS DEPORTATION NOW meant, if only one cared to look. All this stuff is happening now.
elizabeth_jacobs & 7/18/24
Mass deportation means that more than 10 million of your neighbors will be hunted down, dragged from their homes at gunpoint, and violently separated from children, parents, siblings, triends. Just so we are clear about the unequivocal warning we received last night. It CAN happen here. It WILL happen here if we let it.

These actions will be performed by people who have been conditioned to view certain groups of humans as subhuman. They won't care if people get "a little roughed up" or if they die. We will very likely see concentration camps. This is what is meant by mass deportation. Seeing Americans wave their signs espousing this is vile and repellant. They know what they are saying and they LOVE IT. 2/2

There is an argument for gender balance in college admissions despite women having better highschool records, I guess. But there’s no argument for gender balance alone and not full robust programs to build diverse admissions classes. And if one is illegal then they all are illegal.
