WASHINGTON, D.C -- U.S. Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Cruz (R-Texas) released a database identifying over 3,400 grants, totaling more than $2.05 billion in federal funding awarded by the National Science Foundation (...
Examining Blackness in Postsecondary STEM Education through a Multidimensional-Multiplicative Lens Price, Paula G Abstract Despite well-intentioned university efforts to support Black undergraduate STEM students, policy and practice reforms run the risk of not appropriately benefiting all Black people due to pervasive, deficit-based assumptions about Black racial identities and the types of structural engagement needed to advance holistic, racial well-being in transformative and sustainable ways. Stated simply, STEM contexts do not adequately support Black undergraduate STEM students because STEM educators and practitioners remain unsure of what Blackness means for individuals, thereby constraining true racial equity endeavors. Contemporary literature regarding race posits instead that embodiment(s) of Blackness differ across multiple dimensions and axes, including ethnic identity (e.g., African American, Caribbean American, Nigerian American), place identity (e.g., South, Midwest), and generational identity (e.g., first-generation, second-generation, third plus generation). Black students from different ethnic and generational identities having varied perceptions of the racial climate and understandings of their STEM experiences. Recognizing the scope of Blackness and its implications for creating and sustaining holistic, heterogenous conceptions of racial equity in STEM, the team will establish a collaborative network among six institutions (two HBCUS, two PWIs, one majority Black institution, and one HSI) located across the Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Southwest, and Midwest regions of the US to study how Black undergraduate STEM students' notions of Blackness vary with respect to these dimensions.

And we're still waiting for the Epstein material--all of it (except for redactions that hide identifying info of the victims).
Did everyone catch Speaker Mike Johnson's bizarre identifying of Trump as an FBI informant re Epstein? And then Johnson's lame-ass walkback? God, they are desperate to bury the subject.
Memphis is up next! Clean it up boys. Way too much gang activity there. Murders, car jackings, and robbery are all on the menu on a daily basis. Shame. If you're heading to memphis soon stay on beale street and don't venture to far away from the tourist area. Godspeed troops/police/ICE, get it done!

House Speaker Mike Johnson said Monday that he didn???t mean to suggest in a recent interview that Trump had or had not been an FBI informant in the case against disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

This is bullmush. Float Johnsons only tried to walk that assertion back because it's a federal crime to out FBI informants like Trump. Johnsons doesn't want to end up like Scooter Libby, eating chicken soup in a Federal Correctional Facility (a/k/a Penitentiary), so he's pretending he mis-spoke like some spastic idiot or something. How the hell do you mis-speak about whether the President was a former FB informant? It's impossible. Basura!
Please exit the John, Johnson. We're about to land.

3 encouraging thoughts, some which MIGHT be mutually exclusive:
1) While Vance clearly has no principles (and truly disgusts me), he’s still likely not as bad a human as Trump. Trump’s in pretty rarified air.
2) Intelligence doesn’t get you the bizarrely loyal following that Trump has. Vance probably won’t have it.
3) Inability to match Trump’s “charisma” with the rubes aside, the world and history is chock full of really smart bad people who didn’t “accomplish” nearly as much as they wanted, nor others might have feared. Thankfully.
Conclusion: We have enough to fear in the next 3+ years. Don’t also assume that Vance is a ten foot monster coming at the end of it. Arrogant him probably thinks that’s what’s coming. It will be enjoyable to watch him fail….as is most likely.
Here is what I do t understand about this Charlie Kirk shooting…
How were Obama and Biden able to get someone to travel back in time 22 years to forge Trumps signature and put it in Epstein leather bound pedo birthday best wishes book?
I’m a little insulted that everyone is fixated on the traveling BACK in time necessity for this, when I pointed out the other day that the Deep State could have - and probably did - have a gen-u-wine Crystal Ball (provided by the aliens).
Every single one of them stood up and voted to keep cancer research funding and other funding that helps vulnerable, underprivileged kids. Republicans voted to gut it. The vote is what matters. The rest is bluster.
Biden conditioned science funding on DEI / wokeism.
Still can't refute the facts, so doubles down on "woke", this time with Ted Cruz as a source of "information" . Sad. Pitiful. Weak.

It never rings true to me when people (only?) use the word “cynical” to describe people like Vance and Rubio. Is there a meaning of cynical that means, roughly, “intelligent, completely 100% unprincipled douche that will say - and possibly do - virtually ANYTHING to stay in and near power” ???
If there is, great, I’ve learned something. If not, the wholly insufficient sound of it will continue to grate.

The words “bleach” and “lightbulbs up your a**” say otherwise. And that’s JUST for starters….

How is this not woke "science"?
Here’s hoping that they redirect at least some of that $2B into a study investigating, “Why would a U.S. Senator kiss the a** of a man who called his wife ugly? Does he have NO shame or honor?!”
It sounds WAY better than Paula’s admittedly horrible-sounding “study.”
