Bless the textbook rep who just came to my door trying to pitch software for “AI integrated assignments!” and “AI writing assistance for students!” when my door looks like this…

At the Ray LaMontagne concert last night, hearing "How Come" reminded me that a song written 20+ years ago about the world dealing with violence, daily hardship, and political corruption could have also been written last week as a commentary on contemporary America.

For the political scientists - Do you know of a good article/chapter length reading that summarizes the argument of the Michigan school of party ID (i.e., PID as group identity) suitable for upper division undergrads? Thanks!

***Taps Mic*** In addition to being Summus Pontifex, the Pope is also the Sovereign of the Vatican City State, which makes His Holiness a head of state. As such, matters of politics and policy are absolutely also part of his job.

Words have meaning, so when the Secretary of Defense declared "no quarter," he gave zero consideration to United States military members or ANY military members. This pilot needs more than thoughts and prayers, y'all.

I have received 13 emails from students asking if we could discuss Iran today in U.S. Foreign Policy. I must give thanks to @profsaunders.bsky.social for her work to navigate this session. It's rather fortuitous that we were scheduled to discuss chapters of her 2011 book "Leaders at War."

We watched and discussed Bad Bunny's halftime performance in my US foreign policy course, and something happened that I doubt has ever happened... like EVER! Student A: I was happy when the camera showed Ricky Martin. Student B: The lead singer of Coldplay? College students are comedy for free!🤣

I wrote this piece ~6 years ago. Sadly, the umbrella over those who navigate life with some measure of daily fear has only expanded. The lack of adherence to rules and norms is not new to Indigenous, Black, Brown, and/or Queer folks. But we didn't want anyone to have to join us under here.

Tomorrow's my political violence class is NOT gonna reflect my syllabus. I can't always shift to discuss current events, but I'd be a complete dick not to offer my students space and guide them through a discussion tying Minneapolis' prior civilian killings with the most recent killings.

Saying the officer who committed murder is a murderer is dangerous, but it's OK to claim that his victim was a domestic terrorist who literally ran him over.

The only thing cops are loyal to is cops. Not to the public, not to the law, not to public safety or anything like that. The only thing they care about is advancing their own protections and budgets, at the cost of the rest of society. And you see what happens to “good cops” who break the Blue Wall.

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

A reason Black people told everyone to take police shootings seriously is because government sanctioned violence doesn’t occur in isolation. Every justification/defense emboldens them and pushes them towards widespread sanctioned violence knowing society will justify its use no matter how egregious.

If you can stomach it, this is an excellent analysis of video available of the murder of Renee Good. It is "at odds" with the Trump version! Extremely "at odds," you might say, "disproves" or "undermines," or "shows they are lying." www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

Video: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in Minneapolis

An analysis of footage from three camera angles show that the vehicle appears to be turning away from a federal officer as he opened fire.

Rather than grumble about those who've joined new gyms or returned to the gym as the new year begins, how about minding your business and remaining silent? But if you simply MUST do something, a nod of recognition and carrying on with your own workout goes a long way.

Of all the organizations that did NOT need to experience lays, it is the Department of State, which if you recall has also "assumed responsibility" for the functions of USAID. This is a devastating decision and will have implications on US foreign policy for decades.
