The White House Intervened to Get a $620 Million Deal for a Company Tied to Donald Trump Jr.
About three months before the Pentagon announced plans to lend money to Vulcan Elements, Trump Jr.’s venture capital firm took an undisclosed stake in the company.

New in PN: @sethcotlar.bsky.social on historical roots of the new Red Scare "They’ve been saying civilization is on the verge of being destroyed since the 1950s. Somehow no one ever stops and thinks, 'Gosh, it’s been 70 years. I wonder if we’re wrong.' It’s memory-holed like religious cults do."

University leaders need to understand: they are holding INCREDIBLY good cards. It is so rare in today's polarized era to have the support of 70+ percent of the public against the Trump admiministration on anything. Universities have that—AND winning legal arguments.

highlighting two lines in particular:
"Increasing the Federal Government's role in how private universities operate" - 28 percent support, 70 percent oppose
"Reducing federal funding for medical research" - 21 percent support, 77 percent oppose
