  1. "There’s a reason Orbán’s playbook sounds so familiar — Project 2025 was co-developed with Orbán’s Danube Institute think tank, which also trained figures like Christopher Rufo."

  3. the absolute meltdown of the MAGA movement into a circular firing squad of christian nationalism, gay baiting, and conspiracy theories about "the joos" in the aftermath of the murder of #CharlieKirk is incredibly heartwarming.

    Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentes have done truly incredible work on behalf of humanity.

  4. apparently more than a third of #republican voters in the US are now holocaust deniers¹? and 41% think 9/11 was an inside job.

    these numbers came from the trump loving, christopher rufo paying, super right wing Manhattan Institute. this is not a liberal pollster.

    ¹ maybe "holocaust truthers" is a more apt description but... whatever

  9. Nicholas Kent, the Education Department official who oversees U.S. universities, is going with a quieter but possibly more sweeping approach to remaking higher education than the Trump administration. japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/11/ #worldnews #politics #christopherrufo #universities #colleges #us #donaldtrump #republicans

  10. Major corporations, including Mastercard, Meta, and Coca-Cola, are quietly sponsoring a Canadian conference headlined by Christopher Rufo, a far-right activist and crusader against diversity initiatives. Many of these same companies, however, champion diversity in their public communications.

  15. Alex Henderson points to a recent report by Sophia Cai showing how Trump's supporters – Elon Musk is at the head of her list – are helping him push his grievances while he's tied up by his trial.

    And that makes the New York Times' normalization and assistance of Musk all the more reprehensible.

  16. Jamison Foser reports that the New York Times, "a right-wing newsletter," is using the same playbook it ran last year with Christopher Rufo and Elise Stefanik against Claudine Gay. They're now using it with Rufo and Elon Musk to go after NPR's new CEO Katherine Maher.

    Because this is what right-wing newspapers do: they normalize and assist the Rufos, Stefaniks, and Musks as they mount their right-wing attacks.

  17. CW: USPol

    Right-wing voices such as the #HeritageFoundation and #ChristopherRufo (the guy who manufactured a controversy about #CriticalRaceTheory to undermine public schools) have started speaking out about “recreational sex” (ie non-procreative sex).

    mastodon.social/@gknauss/11198

    My first reaction upon hearing this was “let’s put this stance on billboards, it will surely help defeat MAGA in the coming election.”

    Then I realized I was missing the big picture again. #USPol

  18. In a development that could not possibly have been predicted*, the man who led the charge to oust Claudine Gay from Harvard's presidency, #ChristopherRufo, has now† been shown to be an unapologetic #racist.

    In the wake of this startling discovery, people are wondering: could there be a connection between his #racism and his targeting of a Black woman?🤔

    Who can say?

    * except by the scores of people who actively pointed it out last month
    † for roughly the 200th time

  19. "The true goal of bomb-throwers like Chris Rufo or the amorally ambitious Rep. Elise Stefanik is preventing what right wingers see as the rot of diversity, and real learning about American democracy on campuses like LSU or West Virginia University or Youngstown State. These schools educate far more students than the Ivy League (just 0.4% of all collegians)…."

  20. "A lot of people are talking about plagiarism and academic integrity right now, who weren’t talking about it as much or in the same way as they were when for example Neil Gorsuch, who will soon decide if an insurrectionist fascist can appear on presidential ballots, was being considered for the Supreme Court."

  21. "What has happened at Harvard is not just a blueprint for taking over higher education; it is a strategy for taking over our information environment."

  22. "The Washington Post will continue to treat cynical attacks on female college presidents as a both-sides free speech debate. CNN’s Jake Tapper will continue to frame Gay’s alleged plagiarism as a real issue rather than a trumped-up way to force her out."

  23. "CNN ran an overwrought headline complaining that Gay’s initial corrections to her publications did not address 'her clearest instances of plagiarism' before mentioning that all the new allegations came from the hyper-conservative Free Beacon. …

    The New York Times will continue to give Rufo guest opinion columns to complain about DEI."

  24. "The right wouldn’t be nearly as successful at [its war on higher education] without hefty assistance from a mainstream media all too willing to launder their bad-faith claims. As Georgetown political science professor Don Moynihan noted, the New York Times ran 13 stories about Gay in 10 days."

  25. "And we’re helping them get away with it: The Times’ doesn’t much care if liberals think the Times is easily manipulated by right-wing liars — they’d much prefer that to liberals recognizing that the Times purposefully helps peddle right-wing lies. The former merely leads to exasperation with the Times and frustration that right-wing propagandists are so effective; the latter would lead to cancelled subscriptions."

  26. "Christopher Rufo and Elise Stefanik understand that the New York Times1 wants to behave this way. They want to inflate academic jaywalking by Harvard’s president into a massive scandal worthy of weeks of wall-to-wall coverage. …

    At some point, when the same news company seems to keep falling for transparent bullshit, we’re the suckers if we don’t conclude that they’re just doing what they want to do."

    "Far-right author and activist Christopher Rufo has penned a new book that gets its key arguments wrong, writes Crawford Kilian. But it shows the power of America’s right-wing intellectuals and those who fund them."

    "Christopher Rufo’s new book calls for Trumpism on steroids. What to know, and why we can’t turn away."
