Ellis: "The government would have people believe, instead, that the Chicagoland area is in a vice hold of violence, ransacked by rioters and attacked by agitators. That simply is untrue. And the government's own evidence in this case belies that assertion."

I don't understand why the administration keeps saying that other countries pay our tariffs. This is simply not true even in the most optimistic scenario (e.g., a US importer negotiates something with their foreign partner). If the policy is good, why lie about it?

A review for a Little Caesar’s somewhere by Kevin S: 

Stopped into this Little Caesars just trying to get a $6 pizza and ended up in a full on action movie. Just as I grabbed my order, this furious dude barges in yelling about how I cut him off in traffic earlier.
Before I can even respond, he throws a punch but then out of nowhere the guy behind the counter jumps over it like he's been waiting for this moment his whole life and just beats the living hell out of the guy. The guy ran off and the cashier just dusted himself off. I said "are you ok man" and he looked me dead in the eye and said "B*tch, this is Little Caesars. We always hot and ready."
Five stars. Will absolutely return.

This administration's enforcement choices are absurd and counterproductive. However, arresting someone who is in this country illegally is not "kidnapping."

It’s weird to me that people think protesting *has to* involve physical battles with law enforcement. There’s times—like in LA yesterday—when that happens but it is by no means a common or (more importantly) necessary component of protest. The public exercise of speech is the main thing!

I am less interested in "giving voice" to marginalized populations in my academic work and more interested in showing how academia has no interest in actually listening to these voices though great interest in co-opting them for personal gain.

I cannot emphasize this enough; people were live-tweeting imaginary gun battles between North Carolina sheriffs and FEMA stormtroopers, and the richest man in the world was one of them. People can now live in their own imaginary worlds if they want to, and they're choosing to, at scale.

Conservative school board candidates across Texas suffered an array of defeats in Saturday’s local elections, marking a setback for the GOP-aligned movement to shape how grade school curriculums and library books confront issues of race, sex and gender.

School board races across Texas deal losses for many conservatives
Issues about control of book purchases and how curriculums teach race and gender have led to change on many boards, including Keller, Katy and Mansfield ISDs.
