My latest editor's letter, from the current issue of The Week. Written before the White House meeting (that's print ...) but holds up fine. Am I the sucker?

If this isn't an explicit political litmus test for new hires, I don't know what is.
DOCUMENTS: The University of Michigan’s “anti-racism and racial justice” cluster hire wrapped up last year—recruiting at least 20 new professors. I’ve acquired the proposals via a record request. They show how U-M aggressively hired social justice activists. 🧵🧵🧵 https://t.co/9dcCBvMSLh
Wrote this just a week, and feel like by now it's already clear that the answer is "no." Yes, there's hand wringing. No, the press won't do anything differently. https://t.co/HBLN3whODN
This is a startling framing for a story whose basic point is that Mamdani has failed to get anything of consequence done. Progressives get graded on a special curve, I guess. https://t.co/Dowp5E9xnG
