Perhaps she sees the end of this regime in the distance and is trying to rehabilitate herself before "access" to Trump is her only asset.

Under Hegseth's new order, would Stars and Stripes even write about this?

They want corporate contributions. Their main tactic: "don't scare the horses".

Isn't that the point?

"The overall economy" is his checkbook.

MCDonald got his reward for cooperating: he's the new permanent head of NEH, though will probably still not read memos carefully.

Just came back from viewing the St Louis Museum's excellent diorama and narrative boards about this event.The family stories of elders used as human exhibitions,is chilling. A terrific example of public history that clues us into what people of color have experienced in this country.

I remember those lessons.

After Foxman denied the Armenian genocide because Turkey was playing footsie with Israel, I realized that "anti-semitism", something I abhor, was not high on the list of his priorities.

Isn't the responsibility of "leaders" to relieve people if false sentiments like this one? Instead of accommodating it?

The values of the Protestant Reformation have guided political liberalism for 200 years. Self expression & accountability, the knowable world of science, the definition of "others" as neighbors toward whom norms of hospitality apply. None of this suggests religion but values should guide us

And this isn't part of the counter propaganda? For pro conflict entities, the reality that rising oil prices, which are not in control of Dems, is putting pressure on the president, requires leadership to overcome, not silence.

So what. A three year old can hold their breath until strained peas come out of their nose

She wants all the privileges if a citizen of the Empire and none of the accountability. Just vacationing. That's all.

Does it record your behavior on your "permanent" record?

Nancy Drew or Hardy Boys?

You might consider "The Death of Stalin".

The hallmarksof the modern state: efficiency, effectiveness and accountability, is a civil service divorced from partisan politics. Moving in the opposite direction this administration endorses patronage over merit, loyalty over expertise and circus antics over results: the failed state.

Wonderful piece. Learning, by its nature takes you beyond what you know at the present moment. It must challenge what you think now or no learning is possible. Even the result is to affirm what you first thought, the process of analysis is important.
