    Michael Bloomberg's guest blogger, Patricia Lopez on whether
    Harvard.EDU's Alan Garber and other Big .EDU presidents and deans are
    popular with the legacy American proles who have seen their sons and
    daughters passed over for entrance into America's elite circles: <URL:https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2025-05-31/rubio-student-visa-pause-makes-no-sense-and-does-real-harm>
    | Despite the fear fostered by the Trump administration's policies,
    | the intellectual richness of an American education remains a potent
    | draw. And while Trump may be happy to set the bar close to zero for
    | foreign students, few outside his MAGA base would agree. The
    | benefits the students bring are indisputable, both in talent and
    | economic impact.

    Does Peter Thiel worry that Norm Braman will allow Little Marco Rubio
    to outflank Peter Thiel's VP JD Vance in the race for Donald Trump's endorsement for WhiteHouse.GOV?

    "A leak investigation involving Pete Hegseth, top Trump defense
    aides, and a supposedly "top secret" document about reclaiming the
    Panama Canal has totally unraveled. The case began with firings,
    rumors of a traitor in the ranks, and even whispers of an illegal
    NSA wiretap on a Trump loyalist's phone. That alone would be enough
    to trigger a massive scandal, right? But now, even that story
    appears to have been fake." - <URL:https://revolver.news/2025/05/mystery-deepens-over-claims-a- trump-ally-was-illegally-wiretapped-inside-the-pentagon/>
