It is now very clear that word was going around GOP circles that Schmitt was definitely going to take down and humiliate Jack Smith, which makes the *opposite* happening even more delicious.

The decline of confidence in higher ed may tell us more about trust than previously understood. AAC&U + Morning Consult polling found virtually no difference between how adults respond when asked about confidence versus trust. AAC&U's Kathryn Enke digs into what that means: https://bit.ly/4ADQ1Gb
Confidence is a Proxy for Trust
New poll results from AAC&U and Morning Consult show that trust in higher education mirrors confidence in the sector.

1. Democrats win control of the House and Senate.
2. Investigations and prosecutions begin.
3. Impeachment and removal proceedings.
4. Take back the billions of taxpayer money corruptly taken by the Trump family and their accomplices.
5. Rinse and repeat.

“Yes, there are rats fleeing the sinking ship, but Trump’s poisonous influence will still require a major cleanup operation if & when the Democrats regain control in Congress…The only way we truly overcome this dark chapter is by refusing to forgive & forget.”

“Are you regretting your vote for Trump?”
“Yeah. A lot of people are.”
“America’s not Great Again?”
“No. They’ve run it into the ground.”

In a private discussion today this came up:

“We need the January 6th Commission hearings, for DOGE.”

One could do a lot with NIH and NSF alone. There are clinical trials that ended, patients that died, young people leaving the US… and bad stuff that happened inside the agencies.
“Elon Musk and his DOGE operatives ran roughshod over our government...& created real-world disasters that impacted 100s of thousands of lives. We need lawmakers who will commit to issuing subpoenas & launching immediate investigations into Musk’s actions...” www.aol.com/articles/adv...

Soaring diesel prices will affect all facets of economic life in the United States including public schools which was all described at length in the fascist MAGA Project 2025 agenda. The orange felon and his cult are actively destroying the country from within to deliberately destabilize it.

Here's how we get Medicare for All done:

Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!)
Include vision, dental, and hearing.
Begin extending to more people, starting with children.

We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress.

Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare.

This should be a national outrage.

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen.

I wish I could repost this 1000 x
That our system of government allows a "Supreme Court" to make laws up out of whole cloth, that it allows SCOTUS to say something is "Constitutional" when, in plain English it's absolutely not – is us constructing a country/a reality of mass psychosis.
