Here’s a look at how we think the open House races this November will go (1/5)
In the 62 House races with no incumbent running, 29 races are leaning toward, likely or solidly under GOP control, according to our race ratings (2/5)
https://t.co/6TGYPRvTIk
That’s compared to 26 open races that we’re predicting are leaning toward, likely or solidly going to Democrats (3/5) https://t.co/6TGYPRvTIk
There’s 7 open House races that we think are toss-ups. These races could help push one party over the finish line for control of the House. (4/5) https://t.co/6TGYPRvTIk

"I lied about my basic beliefs in order to keep a prestigious job. Now that it will be zero-cost to me, I have a few things to say."
We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.
Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)
It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.
Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".
As a dean of a major academic institution, I could not have said this. But I will now. Requiring such statements in applications for appointments and promotions is an affront to academic freedom, and diminishes the true value of diversity, equity of inclusion by trivializing it. https://t.co/NfcI5VLODi
