Texas Progressives, non political roundup

Texas A&M's regents have axed an LGBTQ+ studies minor that faculty wanted kept. I'm of multiple minds. First, this is the university that screwed Kathleen McElroy. Second, objectively, if it's low performing, then maybe it needs gone, while noting we have a short sample period. Third, given issues such as puberty blockers and "reassignment" surgery, and when appropriate and when not, wingnuts aside, maybe there was some indoctrination on the "T."

There WAS NO antisemitic pogrom in Amsterdam. There WAS the government of the Netherlands deciding to join that of the US and Israel, of course, and other longstanding liars like those of Canada and Germany. And, all of them aided and abetted by US media lies, starting with the New York Slimes.

Technically related to the election, but looking beyond it, the recently revived Border/Lines looked at what might actually play out on Trump's immigration policy. It actually looked at both Trump and Harris the day before the election, but everything it said about Trump — and about Harris and most national Democrats, for that matter, stands true. The authors note how much Dems have moved their Overton windows in the past few years, and otherwise have no actual, true "immigration policy."
