It’s getting darker by the minute:

https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2025/03/27/three-prominent-yale-professors-depart-for-canadian-university-citing-trump-fears/

Three prominent critics of President Donald Trump are leaving Yale’s faculty — and the United States — amid attacks on higher education to take up positions at the University of Toronto in fall 2025.

Philosophy professor Jason Stanley announced this week that he will leave Yale, while history professors Timothy Snyder and Marci Shore, who are married, decided to leave around the November elections. The three professors will work at Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy. 

Stanley wrote to the Daily Nous that his decision to leave was “entirely because of the political climate in the United States.” On Wednesday, he told the Guardian that he chose to move after seeing how Columbia University handled political attacks from Trump. 

After the Trump administration threatened to deport two student protesters at Columbia and revoked $400 million in research funding from the school, Columbia agreed on Friday to concede to a series of demands from the Trump administration that included overhauling its protest policies and imposing external oversight on the school’s Middle Eastern studies department.

“When I saw Columbia completely capitulate, and I saw this vocabulary of, well, we’re going to work behind the scenes because we’re not going to get targeted — that whole way of thinking presupposes that some universities will get targeted, and you don’t want to be one of those universities, and that’s just a losing strategy,” Stanley told the Guardian.

“I just became very worried because I didn’t see a strong enough reaction in other universities to side with Columbia,” he added.

Yale has not released a statement addressing the revocation of Columbia’s funding. Yale College Dean Pericles Lewis has told the News that he does not anticipate any changes in Yale’s free expression and protest policies. University President Maurie McInnis previously said that she is prioritizing lobbying for Yale’s interests in Washington over issuing public pronouncements

Yeah.....it's damning enough -- I'm talking "kill shot, and he should likely be in prison" damning -- that I need to see a lot more info to support the assertion that that is actually his email address.

It can't be that he has a burner Russian phone and email address with his own fucking name?  

Certainly he could've come up with something better.  Something more subtle.  

Something like "whiskeyleaks@mail.ru"?

The Trump administration is considering major changes in how the Justice Department operates, including by merging the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives into one, according to an internal memo.

The other changes include drastically altering how the department’s public integrity section functions; downsizing the fraud-focused investigations that involve foreign business practices and foreign influence efforts; and closing down the community relations office that works to quell public unrest after police shootings.

The proposal, outlined in a memo issued by the deputy attorney general, Todd Blanche, and obtained by The New York Times, has yet to take effect. Officials are still seeking feedback from within the department before proceeding with what current and former Justice Department officials view as a significant reorganization.

A spokesman for the Justice Department did not immediately comment on the memo.

Overall, the Trump administration’s vision for the Justice Department, as outlined in the memo, is to downsize by consolidating some work inside its headquarters, while farming other responsibilities out to the U.S. attorney’s offices. The changes are described as part of the government’s efforts to downsize and streamline the federal work force, with help from the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency.

The proposal to merge the D.E.A. and A.T.F. would almost certainly require congressional approval, though so far in the new administration, Congress appears to be playing a shrinking role in how the federal government is organized.

Historically, lawmakers on the appropriations committees zealously guarded their authority over the organization of agencies like the Justice Department. It is unclear if the current leaders in Congress intend to assert such authority during the Trump administration.

Administrations have long considered restructuring one or both of those two agencies, but no major reorganization has occurred since the post-Sept. 11 era, when the Department of Homeland Security was created and the A.T.F. was moved from the Treasury Department into the Justice Department.

Under the plan, antitrust offices in Chicago and San Francisco would close, as would environmental offices in Denver, Seattle, San Francisco and Sacramento. Civil litigation offices in New York, Chicago, Raleigh and San Francisco would also be closed, according to the memo.

The plan also calls for reassigning tax division lawyers to U.S. attorney offices around the country, and consolidating the department’s various legal divisions, including for national security, criminal prosecutions and other matters, into one single office.

In the memo to Justice Department employees, Mr. Blanche asked for feedback on the plans by April 2.

To be fair I can’t think of anything that goes better with alcohol tobacco firearms and explosives than drugs

Why would this even surprise anyone? The Republican Party has been a Russian asset for years. 
They literally told us so when they didn’t know someone was recording.

I was referring to the idea that the last two months we’ve done everything Russia wanted. Every action he’s taken since declaring he was running has been to help Russia.

Still orders of magnitude different. I half expect Alaska to belong to Russia by June.

You think this is orders of magnitude different than coordinating with Russia to dig up dirt on your presidential opponent in exchange for lifting US sanctions?

It’s not like this would be the first time it’s been discovered they were communicating with Russia. This is run of the mill for this team.

Imagine, even in the depths of Trump's first term, Canada coming right out and saying we're not allies anymore. 

I was casually having drinks on Brisket's ledge after reelection, but even I am surprised with the speed of our descent. Truly remarkable.

I wish I could be content to say I told you so. But instead it's more like "GET OFF THE SHIP NOW OR WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE, YOU GODDAMN MORONS!"

It's not that I find it unbelievable that they would be Russian assets, but would he really use his real name?  I mean, aliases are spy craft 101.

I'd speculate more of a useful idiot; there to be the shiny suited slurring distraction while the real deal agents are going through all the wallets files, aligning the systems for the future, and whatever else they can get away with. It's not like anyone with baseball bats is out there stopping the mafia from entering the store.

Why? Russia doesn’t care if people know he’s an asset. Makes them look stronger anyway.

Not buying that.  I'll need further corroboration before I believe that email is real.

Even then, while having a .ru is odd, what's the point?  Why would the Russian government give a shit about the top-level domain of his email?

Welp, bye-bye slavery exhibit.  Glad I got a chance to see it.

It will now be referred to as the Great American Trade School Era Exhibit, where black men, women and children were saved from poverty by being taught valuable skills.

What makes me rage is the fact that they can basically say, "Yeah, so what?" and they still choose lying. It's not like anything will come out of it. Wouldn't it be bigger big dick energy to own it and keep your job anyway?
 

They are still operating with a concept that they need to keep up appearances.  Soon they will figure out that they really do not and will start saying “Yea I fucking did it and will keep doing it and aint shit you are gonna do to stop me!”   It reminds me of the closing scene of A Few Good Men but instead of getting arrested, everyone in the court gets on their knees and licks Jack’s taint.  That is our reality.
