The thought that universities need to be selective needs to end. We need to invest in education. We need to stop judging universities based on the kids that enter and judge them on how well they teach

I support immigration of highly educated people from around the world. I also understand some of the frustration of Americans. American K-12 education is so unequal, higher education so expensive and so many get left behind that it is hard to see us import talent.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

Weird article. Ohio State fans are not talking about the UM loss. So we slipped up at home before going on a tear to win the NC. “The Game” just doesn’t matter as much. It used to ruin your season, now it is a road bump. Call us soft, but we got the ring and we didn’t cheat to get it.

Median-gate is really heating up. It is clear that leading Democrats, aided by no one other than George Soros, were taking bribes to “keep Americas medians ugly”. George has huge holdings in drab grey concrete that is known to crack and stain. It is all coming to light! #mediangate

This has always been the GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode deficits
3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.
4) Repeat.

Hard to watch Alcaraz lose. He has been so brilliant over the fortnight. Sinner made him pay for his low first serve percentage. Alcaraz was impatient and inconsistent. On to the hard courts. #alcaraz #wimbledon

Senator Padilla was forcibly removed from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s press conference in Los Angeles while attempting to ask a question.
Padilla was thrown down and handcuffed. A senator in his own state! (He has since been released.)

Neither should have ever been able to amass so much power.
