The silver lining is the Professor still has his faculty job, but this is explicitly viewpoint discrimination, a message that there is no such thing as faculty governance.
All admin must be aligned with a political party. For all the talk of leftist indoctrination, this is no different from China.

If you make "controversial statements" outside of classroom, that the President of the university dislikes, you can be summarily fired even if you are tenured.
I just learned, Thomas Alter, tenured professor, has been terminated effective immediately. Shame on Texas State! We mst build support for Tom. spectrumlocalnews.com/tx/south-tex...

Texas Tech’s limits on gender identity discussion deepen fears of politics breaching academic freedom
Professors are afraid to publicly speak out, system leaders left key questions unanswered and advocates worry for LGBTQ+ students’ mental health.

POLICE AGAINST THE MOVEMENT retells the '60s civil rights struggle through its overlooked work against police violence and the surveillance, infiltration, and retaliatory prosecutions they faced from police in return. It's a pre-history of both the Black Lives Matter and Blue Lives Matter movements.

The best negotiating tactics are the negotiating tactics you announce are negotiating tactics. That’s the art of the deal.
President Trump’s furious rhetoric toward Russia is “a negotiating tactic” intended to pressure the Kremlin, a White House official said, a day after Trump delighted Ukrainian leaders by embracing Kyiv’s ambitions for a defeat of Russia.
Trump’s blast toward Russia is a ‘negotiating tactic,’ White House says
The president’s escalation in rhetoric is a marker of Trump’s frustration toward Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to a senior White House official.

I can think of some follow-up questions about the ways people used guns when he was a kid.
RFK Jr: We had lots of guns when we were kids. Kids brought guns to school and were encouraged to do so. And nobody was walking into schools and shooting people. There are many things that could explain this. One is the dependence on psychiatric drugs.
