I would like to see more companies admit this - being a public company no longer means running a successful, thriving business. It strictly means delivering growth to investors, every single quarter, who do not care at all about the product the company sells or the people who produce it.

Does anyone know if Alito benefited from birthright citizenship? Did his father get naturalized and become a citizen, or did his son just get the gift he now wants to deny to others?

And make no mistake, when the Klan was ranting about unassimilable immigrants in the 1920s, they were very much talking about Italians whom they attacked as Catholic pawns of the pope, as a "criminal race" whose members were all tied to the mafia, and as a non-white threat to white women.

Can you imagine, say, Roosevelt taking to the radio to announce, in advance, that there would be bombing over Germany and Japan on a given night? Someone doesn't give a fuck about the lives of American pilots and crews. His public dick-grab matters more.

When my daughter stood on the USS Arizona memorial and looked at the submerged hulk of the ship and thought on the 900 sailors entombed below, she became distressed, then furious that a few nearby tourists did not observe a respectful silence. But then, she was 13 and had a human soul.

Every now and then, it's worth reminding yourself that every single crisis of Trump 2.0 -- the economic downturn, the chaos in our cities, the rising health crisis, the foreign wars -- has been a direct result of their own actions. If they'd done nothing at all, they'd be coasting comfortably.

In the country from which we demanded liberty, declaring a republic by the people and beholden to no rule by divine right, they can arrest a prince. In this so-called republic, now 250 years old and imploding, the president has been declared immune from prosecution. The American Revolution failed.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks. IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

This really is a must read for anyone in academia.

When my business school colleagues insist that ChatGPT is “just another tool in the toolbox,” I’m tempted to remind them that Facebook was once “just a way to connect with friends.” But there’s a difference between tools and technologies. Tools help us accomplish tasks; technologies reshape the very environments in which we think, work, and relate. As philosopher Peter Hershock observes, we don’t merely use technologies; we participate in them. With tools, we retain agency—we can choose when and how to use them. With technologies, the choice is subtler: they remake the conditions of choice itself. A pen extends communication without redefining it; social media transformed what we mean by privacy, friendship, even truth.
