Whatever success Trump had in his career was built on insight
-- not into the workings of capitalism but into the darker corners of human nature.
He succeeded through scams, lies, and bullying,
using the power he had over others to enrich himself at their expense.
So no one should be surprised that he brings the same spirit to policymaking.
In his second term, Trump is at last unleashed to fully realize his vision,
and on economics, that means a new kind…

As a Black, Christian former Democrat with little previous engagement with Jewish causes, Leo Terrell, now 70, seemed an improbable pick to lead the effort to
“root out anti-Semitic harassment in schools and on college campuses,”
as the task force announcement put it.
But his zealous conversion and penchant for media bombast made him a perfect bullhorn for the task force’s actual mission:
to strong-arm colleges into stripping away any vestige of “wokeness” in their …

The Leader of Trump’s Assault on Higher Education Has a Troubled Legal and Financial History
Leo Terrell’s past is at odds with Trump’s description of an “incredibly successful” attorney. Documents obtained by ProPublica and The Chronicle of Higher Education reveal a trail of legal disputes and unpaid debts.

The Student Agency building is the first thing if you head out of Cornell towards Collegtown -- tomorrow I'm hoping to post some photos of a big yellow crane that just went up in this neighborhood but I've got to get through photos of my trip to Newark Valley and Oakley Corners State Forest first
#photo

A 7 story or so broad building had brown bricks at the the top and a sign that reads THE STUDENT AGENCY BUILDING, below that the front has a glass facade that reflects a sky with clouds and towards your right, a red brick facade. In front find a Hertz rental van, a garden of brownish green (color graded) foliage and a road. Above: a subdued (color graded) blue sky with a few clouds, Behind: other buildings a little less tall and some parked cars.
