@Huntn00 @realTuckFrumper Democrats just ousted Windsor Heights, Iowa County Auditor David Whipple (R), an election denier spreading conspiracy theories, in charge of elections. They gathered enough signatures to hold a special election and ran Kimberly Sheets (D) who won by a two-to-one margin in a county trending red. More votes saved.

Fellow professors, if you're teaching an introductory course in graduate school, set aside some class time early in the semester for students to discuss their transition to your program.

That Trump gig really has not panned out well for Giuliani. It's back to court for old Rudy. His legacy and life are effectively destroyed.

They may be proud, but they're not smart

Black leaders nail #RonDeSantis' #racist ass to the wall for creating the climate of bigotry and hatred that made the Jacksonville mass shooting inevitable, while the spox of his rapidly tanking campaign claims the shooting has been "politicized." https://apnews.com/article/jacksonville-desantis-racist-republican-shooting-haley-scott-9bba89577ae8d0571e1d19b6a947fef5?utm_source=newsshowcase&utm_medium=gnews&utm_campaign=CDAqDwgAKgcICjCE7s4BMOH0KDCvi8AC&utm_content=rundown

Notes to the folks who are scared that Trump's trial(s) will lead to violence by the white supremacists:

The white supremacists want you to be scared, and the white supremacists have already been violent on Trump's behalf.

Fuck the white supremacists. Fuck being scared.
